A 50% or 100% race would be brilliant. Great driving around Montreal btw. Such a good track. Were you playing the PS3 version?VVV Mars VG said:
In my experience, the majority (not all) of die-hard F1 fans are on PS3 console-wise. I think that's got a lot to do with the popularity of Bizarre Creations' and Psygnosis' F1 games on PSX and then the Studio Liverpool games and exclusive licence on PS2. People, like me, have just naturally progressed into the PS3 because of that.

The 360 version seems to have a persistent mistiness that adds atmosphere to the entire environment.Adamm said:
I think it's also because Logitech steering wheels work with Sony hardware.Juicy Bob said:

Trying to get the expert achievement before 2011 hits, it's annoying me.

Steal of the century, or bust of the lifetime?
I got Logitech GT Force for $10.
Downloaded Logitech Profiler. Let's hope everything works well! :/
EDIT: Didn't even required Profiler. Works great with Dirt 3!
(Though it's hard going from a 900 degree G25 to 200 degree GT Force).

Shit that brings back memories, I remember trading a shit pile of MtG cards for one of those back in the day then subsequently causing it to smoke and die when plugging it in to the wrong AC adapter.
What happened to your G25?

Don't believe so. Despite Dirt 3 being an utter whore when it comes to DLC, F1 2010 had none and so far we haven't heard that any is planned for 2011, which I'm pleased about.
The only DLC I'd be interested in is new tracks, honestly. And then only if they weren't in-your-face with it like they were in Dirt 3.
It honestly feels like two different companies made these games with the different approaches to DLC.

PC one. Obviously!mblitek said:
The other thing is, because it's based on a real-life sport that has a finite amount of events and features from year to year it would be really hard to justify DLC that wasn't something they omitted for a good reason in the first place. Can't really add new liveries or tracks unless they go down some kind of historical route.Foliorum Viridum said:

Classic tracks is pretty much what I had in mind. We tend to play the same 8-12 tracks online because some of the new ones are crap, so the chance to get more variety in there? Definitely! Even if it was just for online I'd be okay with that.Shaneus said:
But to be honest, 2010 felt like a complete package and 2011 looks to be one as well. I don't want to encourage DLC where it's not needed.

I don't believe so.
The PC community did wonderful graphics mods though. I love my high res texture mods for cars (4000x4000px!) and of course they removed the piss filter pronto.
This year it will be up to the modders to fix the ugly HUD mostly for me.

The high res texture packs are really only for high-RAM cards, yes? I'm only on 2x5850s so I only have 1gb at my disposal (though I only have one screen).
I really hope they improve optimisation of Crossfire as well. Every time I come across a game I have to set a custom profile for, I weep.

I ran them on my 5850 fine. My 6950 has 2gb now and I get a bit of a performance boost, but I've also overclocked my CPU so yeah.

There's some PSVita F1 2011 gameplay captured: here
It looks much better in motion and I'm sure the framerate will be improved by the time it's released.
There's not much footage of the PS3 version around which has me concerned (the 360 videos look amazing). Hopefully Eurogamer will have their usual showdown comparison between the 360 and PS3 versions soon. If the PS3 version is significantly inferior, I might just stick with a copy for the PC this time around. Hopefully my concern is unjustified and there will be parity between the two.

Really hard to tell if those gifs and screenshots in the OP are real life or a game tbh.
Did this get a huge graphical upgrade or something? I thought 2010 mostly looked like ass, the lighting was terrible.
This looks like the lighting from that gta4 mod.

Put me down for 360:
GT: Fong Ghoul
I can't start racing until at least October 8 though - I'll be on my honeymoon.
Just got into F1 this season. Totally in love with this sport and haven't missed a race. Getting really hyped for this game.
What's the consensus on wheels for the 360? Are most of you using them (and which ones), or just sticking with controllers?

Did you mod it? Vanilla was ugly, but modded F1 2010 was a great looking game. Especially on Ultra after the DX11 patch.SneakyStephan said:

I just bought the Steam version for $45. Damn my lack of willpower. I guess I'll be rocking the PC version initially until I know that the PS3 version is reasonable

I've actually heard that you only get every other race with the game itself, and that you have to sign up for a paid subscription for the rest.
