"Overall, I found Formula One 2009 a letdown. The Wii is a bit lacking in the racing genre, and this was a chance to step in and offer Wii gamers an exciting experience. Hopefully Codemasters can learn from this experience and improve on their game."
Everyeye.it: It was the distant 1998. To be precise it was in September 1998. The Italians had just cried with Di Biagio who, with his penalty spentosi on the cross, had put an end to the world of nationality in France. Then Valentino Rossi was still a youngster and a half for tifava Italy romanissimo Max Biagi. Meanwhile the Ferrari around the world and suffered not a little. After having cursed a couple of years the unsurpassable Williams back in 1998 to beat an opponent that had prevented the heroic Hakkinen Michael Schumacher to give the dream that many fans waiting for too years.
No race fixing, no political in-fighting and definitely no sex scandals – F1 2009 is all about the adrenaline-pumping g-force action on the track.
It was 2006 when the last Formula 1 game appeared on PSP so a new version has been long overdue. Since the last game there have been countless rule changes, a bunch of new countries joining the F1 circus and more negative stories rocking the sport than Michael Schumacher had grand prix wins.
bloomin amazing 60 fps with graphics like that count me in i mean im getting dirt 2 because its a solid collin mcrae game that stays true to its roots but with split screen and instead of moving to a more photo relistic simulator kind of game like 360/ps3 which in a way i prefer but F1 2009 looks amazing
imagine if they held this version back to next year wow it would look as good as the 360 version very impressive for a F1 game
For a Wii game, it's not as bad as i expected. But I had hoped for a little more in terms of pit-crew animations and interactions. I pray F1 2010 to be a huge leap up from this.
Please tell me that was a joke on the wii system, because those graphics looked like utter crap. Even worse then fuels(the worst driving game ever made)
i do an animation degree, and the pit crew was pretty horrible.
Looking forward to next years installment, on 360. As a massive f1 fan cant wait.
