MotoGamesTV has put together a very interesting comparison video, showing the PC & Xbox 360 versions of Codemasters’ recently-released F1 2011 title side by side. With the current generation of consoles aging and PCs becoming more and more powerful, the console versions are starting to fall behind in eye candy. Check out the video below to see the differences in F1 2011 as the console version does not just come with lower-resolution textures and less details but also different lighting as the PC version. |

F1 2011 – Twitter Questions Answered
|
Codemasters have released a new video of their upcoming F1 2011 Formula One title, showing Steve Hood (Chief Game Designer), Paul Jeal (Senior Producer) and Lee Mather (Handling Designer) answering questions from their Twitter followers. The questions touch on various subjects, including details on the KERS & DRS systems and the new time trial mode. Furthermore, the Official Playstation Magazine is the first media outlet to review F1 2011, scoring it at 8/10 (F1 2010 received a 9/10 score). The magazine calls F1 2011 “a game about appreciation for the sport” that’ll “change the way you watch the Sunday affo Grand Prix,”, frowning upon the supposedly steep learning curve, calling it “unforgiving and newbie-unfriendly”. While that sounds promising to the ears of sim racers, reviews from mainstream gaming outlets should always be taken with a grain of salt as none of the big F1 2010 reviews picked up on the scripted AI times for example. |

upcoming Formula One 2011 title, showing off some new gameplay footage
and interview tidbits. |
F1 2011 – New Video Interview + Demo News
|
Gameswelt.tv has released an extensive video interview with Codemasters’ Paul Jeal, senior producer of the studios’ upcoming Formula One 2011 title.
In the interview, Jeal mentions some of the titles improvements including a more realistic AI that sets real times now, improved physics and tire model as well as a more extensive career mode. We also get to check out some new gameplay footage as Jeal explains some of the new features.
In related news, Codemasters has confirmed that there are no plans to release a demo of the upcoming title. Like with prior titles such as F1 2010 and DiRT 3 who did not get a demo-treatment either, Codemasters blame a packed development schedule for the missing time to create a trial version.
This means that sim racers will have to rely solely on reviews to find out whether or not the studio makes good on their promise of better physics and less bugs than last time around. |
F1 2011 will be released for the PC, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 on September 23, right in time for the final races of the real life 2011 Formula One World Championship season.
