Codemasters' F1 game discussion

Thanks for the advice
Yeah, I have thought about doing that and have done a little bit of research. Unfortuantely though I read that Dell computers such as mine have all their CPU overclocking options disabled

think my PC will be OK (once i replace the soundcard, which is bottlenecking everything). However, i've just 'upgraded' my 360 to one of the new shiny ones (boy what a difference! ) so i'll probs get F1 2010 for that, and wait till PC version hits the bargain bucket

You can get the PC version for £20 at shopto.net. That's a bargain price!

The new 360 isnt any differnet :S to old one except it has built in wifi no difference in graphics.

i never said there was any difference in graphics... but as a piece of kit, it's far superior to the old one - much quieter, much sleeker, no slowdown on dashboard (which seemed to happen a lot on my old one). it's what the xbox should have been first time round

The "upgraded" should have given it away

:S

I think when it comes to PC's these days as long as you have a CORE 2 DUO and an 8800 or above and 4GB of ram your computer will run games better than any console.

Cos the times of needing a top of the range PC to run games is now a massive myth.

The consoles are 4 year old tech now and just about any PC would be able to run console games with a cheap £50 graphics card off ebay.

@ralv585, cheers! the inverted commas were indeed there for that reason

I'm sorry, but I have a core 2 duo, better then 8800 and 4GB and your wrong. Mass Effect on my 360 or pc is a huge difference,
on the pc I have to play it on medium to get it playable and don't get me started on Mass Effect 2.

So yeah you can run games on such a system, but everthing has to be at medium or even low settings,
at a console you don't have that problem

at a console you don't have that problem

Sure you do. You just don't have the ability to improve the situation with graphics settings. Grand Theft Auto 4 and Command and Conquer are examples of 2 games that can bring a console to it's knees.

The performance between consoles and PCs are no where near as simple as what you guys are making out.

PS3 so we can play :P. Add me on PSN!

By the way, I really wish we'd know more about wheels. I could buy a G27 for 225 dollars (not the 299 usual price) and I'm interested in that but if the game won't support it then no use.

Gui, here's the list of all the wheels that will be compatible with the game [www.virtualr.net]

Oh, cheers! I hadn't seen the G27 on the other list before. And got the PM, Covfan .
