Best Review of the F1 2012 game (Xbox 360, PS3, PC; £39.99; 3+; Codemasters)

Full review of the F1 2012 game (Xbox 360, PS3, PC; £39.99; 3+; Codemasters) at the bottom of the post. These are some of the questions I address in my WandiSports review:


Is Schumacher returning to Formula 1?
What's happening with the McLaren team?
What do you think of the grey tint from the previous version?
How do the new F1 cars look in the game?
How about the onboard cameras?

How have the physics changed (tyre gripping, suspension..etc.) in the new F1 game?
Can you still get away with never over heating the tyres in the new game?

What new game modes have codemasters introduced?
Can you race against or as a particular driver?
Have they kept the split screen mode?
What about the AI drivers? Are they still easy to beat?
Have they kept Maldonado?

The race engineer then? Is he any good this time?
Do we have a better penalty system?
What happens to the power when you go off the track in the game?
"Hot Laps"? What's this?

How about the loading times? It was a pain before!
Are there any fixes for the game for pc, PS3 and Xbox? Have you been struggling to use the Driving Force GT wheel? Here's a fix you could try and where you can find it.

Finally, how do you feel about the menu systems?

Here are some facts and numbers:

Wheel Weight 10%
Environmental 40%
Feedback 100%
Wheel Dead zone 1%
Saturation 5%
Linearity 50%
