This game is so overdue, can't wait.

This game really is overdue. I can't wait for an F1 game. I'll buy this the day it comes out. It does sound like the 2010 version may be lacking a little compared to the 2011 version, but I doubt I'll be able to wait. I'll just have to buy both, haha.

I think the last open wheel racing game I played was some indy racing game that ran on our 386 computer, so I could use a new one. laugh.gif

24 player online. Well that will be a lag hell hole...

Only if you've got a slow connection. Anything over 10Mbit should be able to handle 23 other players just fine.

Anyway, I can't wait for this game to come out in September! :)

I remember being able to play 31 other players on a 2Mbit connection, oh the joys of playing a computer game with dedicated servers :)

I'll be getting this for Pc and will invest in a wheel

Might I suggest the Logitech G25? Best racing wheel I've ever owned :)

Looks good though :)

I think the G25 is nigh on impossible to your get your hands on nowadays. The G27 is available but in the UK it's a bit steep @ ?225.

?225 for a peripheral!? That's more than the bloody consoles cost

Meh, those fanatec wheels for the 360 are even more expensive for a full set. but they're pretty hardcore.

considering it's a codemasters game you'll probably be better off with a pad than a wheel anyway. it's a long time since they knew the meaning of the word sim.

For most racing games it's stupid though, since actual racign cars, and more specifically for this thread, F1 cars, don't drive with full 270 degree lock.

I actually considered suing my tax return to buy a Fanatec, but then I decided I could drive just as well with my normal wheel, the game is just as fun. and mostly I don't bother pulling out the wheel anyway. So I bought a Traxxas Slash 4x4 Brushless, RC car instead, waaaay more fun :p

^^ True, However in the software you can change the lock to any # you want :p

The F1 game... The in-race radio sounds HORRIBLE "Great overtake!", "Your in his turbulent air you will lose front-end grip"

Yes. I know!

That limited edition Fanatec with the actual 360 backlit buttons is pure sex though. and that have that neat little folding thing to put the wheel and pedals on.

Yeah my friends one has backlit buttons which change depending on whether you're connected to a 360 or a PS3. Not sure about the folding stand though. He used some weird coffee table lol.

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
