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.

    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.

      I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
