i still thinking.waiting final and see how

Dunno whether you guyz read about this already. Apparently, Codemasters just nabbed exclusive license from Sony to make Formula 1 games.

Codemasters Acquires Formula 1 License



After Sony refused to pay the licensing fees requested by the Formula 1 car racing association, England-based Codemasters has stepped up and nabbed the former Sony-exclusive license. Codemasters has gained the global rights to the racing label, promising to bring Formula 1-branded games to consoles, PC, and handheld gaming platforms.

Formula 1 is “ambitious in expanding its reach via technology. The digital communities that computer and video gaming creates will play a key role in further growing the Formula 1 audience,” said Codemasters CEO Rod Cousens.

Back in 2003, Sony paid an estimated $15 million per year for the rights to use Formula 1 exclusively in its first-party games. That agreement lasted four years, through the end of 2007. When the contract expired, Formula 1 demanded more money for Sony to renew its license. Sony said it was too much and severed ties with the racing group.

The move for Codemasters to pick up the F1 rights is not surprising. The low-cap games publisher is known for its racing titles, most notably its long-running Colin McRae series. The publisher has already announced its first title to make use of the newly acquired license. Fia Formula One World Championship will come out next year.

In my opinion, if codemasters makes it into Arcade F1... then i'm skipping it.

played the demo too.....nice graphics, car damage, and nice controls.

GT5 will have damage also as add-on packs

If damage modelling is why people getting this, why dont u guys buy DiRT few months back lol.... the damage modelling is exactly the same, except for DiRT use real-life speed, GRID is like ... err.. RR7 insane speed haha

Codemasters will make Wipeout F1 soon perhaps? lol

review 9/10

Hmm, hopefully i wont get flamed but..

9/10 ... seems a little overated if you ask me... but what do i know ?

I just played the demo and dont like it.
