Believe me......i know my games.........official f1 is the best racing game you can get on the ps2 at the moment.......if you love f1 then you will love this game....but at the end of the day......it is f1.......so no silly power sliding etc....and all the cars on offer are obviously very samey.............it is very impressive though.... ....that is....until gt3 comes out..........

I only had them hired out for a night each, but the official one is IMHO not very good, it may be possible that after a while you get used to the strange steering, but I did not have it for long enough, and the EA one is terrible

Tokyo Highway Battle will keep you going before GT3 comes out. Its a little similar in that you can buy and customise cars, then go out onto the highway and hunt down your rivals. Once you catch them, you incite them into a race by flashing your headligts at them!

Its quite a larf, although the scenery is a little monotonous.





Also, Le Mans is out very soon, and that will give you a great race! I've got the DC version and its great - especially 2 player!

PS: Its out in a week or so over here.

You think the backdrops are monotonous in the game? Try driving around here in real life...

Although it is nice knowing your motor is less likely to get stolen!

moto gp it is.
it is actually rather good, certainly the best bike game ive played on either pc/dreamcast/ps1/megadrive/amiga/n64 and the replays are a cross between gran turismo and eurosport !

Midnight Club is fun if stomach churning. Only had it a short while and only two races to go, not sure if I'll play it again once done.

Andy,

Midnight Club is just MidTown Madness.

Ridge 5 aint bad, whilst waiting for GT3, just buy Unreal tournement, some bud, relax and blow the crap out of anything that moves.

Should keep you happy till GT3 comes out.

eh? have you tried moving the joypad rather than trying telepathy ?

Its actually quite easy once you get the hang off it, you can rear wheel slide it and all sorts !
