![]() There are also occasional R&D sessions during practice, too, which require you to meet an objective to receive an upgrade for your team. ![]() ![]() It’s nice to have this feature but I get asked the same questions a lot, which is a bit of a disappointment. Positive answers will help your team like you, but if you want to speak your mind, you’d better be prepared to deal with an unhappy team. You’ll have to deal with interviews that change a bit based on your performance. While on your team, there’s plenty to do. Multiply that by the 19 races in a single season and well… if you pick the 7-year career, you’ll be playing for a while before getting to the end. It’s certainly not a short-mode either: even a short weekend can take upward of an hour per weekend. This is who you’ll race for during your first season, and as you perform better, you’ll raise your reputation and open up new ride possibilities. And actually, career mode begins right when you boot up the game, as you’ll have to enter your name, nationality, career length (3, 5 or 7 seasons) and pick from one of three teams to start with, all new teams for the real-world 2010 season. The largest part of your time in this game will likely be spent in the game’s career mode. ![]() For the record, I’m an F1 fan, the kind of guy who gets up at 7:30 in the morning on a Sunday just so he can catch the racing live because that’s what time it comes on in the U.S., so to say I was excited about this is a understatement. Still, I told myself, these guys had done a great job with GRID in 2008, and from all early impressions, the game seemed to be very solid. While they had made racing games in the past with the likes of the Race Driver series, their more recent affairs had contained a bit more of an arcade-like feel when compared to the Forzas and Gran Turismos of the world. So when Codemasters took up the F1 license for a multiplatform release in 2010, there was quite a bit of excitement and some questions. Sure, there have been mods for games like rFactor, and the Williams F1 machine is coming to the extremely expensive to play, but the last official title was the hit-or-miss Formula One Championship Edition, exclusively for the PlayStation 3. Since 2006, Formula One fans have been left without an officially licensed game.
