Are you familiar with Formula One? Oh sure, everybody is aware of this racing event. Now if you are going crazy over the hot cars and the superstar drivers on the Formula one, you can experience the heat, the fire and the competition on the race track as the Psygnosis brings you, the Formula One Championship Edition. Now, the new car racing role playing is filled with more thrills and more drama as brought to us by Studio Liverpool. The game is developed by the Sony Computer Entertainment Studio Liverpool and was specifically made for the Sony PlayStation 3


On the Gameplay:

The game was just the same as the previous ones however, the new Champ edition is filled with more action and suspense. The first F1 was programmed for the PS2 but this new game is programmed for the latest PS3. The new game is also packed with more details, real sound effects, more precise car designs and new wet weather effects. It feels like you’re on the real race track when you play the role playing car racing game.

Almost everyone can play this Formula One Championship Edition. The video game maker have reduced the violence on the games so even kids can play without causing possible game trauma. The new game also has this particular AI system almost famous by the name "Live Action Racing". This game also runs like a real time racing car. With little mistakes on control, you’ll find yourself crashing on another’s car. So the game is more complicated than the previous games making it more fun and more challenging.

I feel sad because Mazda is not included on the racing cars. Anyway, I found the Mazda Hub Cap and Mazda Intermediate Pipe online so I can fix my Mazda car later.
