Think this is brill news for the main game too. with the family audience catered for they can now make F12012 more realistic and sim based thumbup
Not for the wii though which is strange for a family game.
maybe they're waiting for the new nintendo console?

Even though there was no game play it looks like it has a sense of fun and isn't taking itself too seriously.

Looks good, cheers for posting it thumbup

Demo is up for download on Xbox live. Quite good fun. It really is mario kart with F1 drivers.

Looks brilliant doesn't it? It is only £30 too so will probably pick this up when it is launched on the 16th Nov.

Odd, I searched for it, clicked on it and it just let me download the demo, no probs.

Seems to still be there, http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Product/F1-RACE-... sorry not near the Xbox at the moment.

Its all good, found it. My LIVE subscription had expired and the demo is only available to Gold subscribers, so had to renew again to get it.

I actually found it really good fun. I'm hoping they have made the full game challenging enough, but it is currently winging its way to be via Amazon, so I shall be having a good go next week!

Argggh forgot to order it due to our first child arriving on Tuesday night!

Got a few days before they come out of hospital so will get it ordered up, maybe it is available via Xbox live?

Picked this up today and my mates and I spent the evening with some beers and 4 player split screen.

It is brilliant fun to play that way though it isn't the most refined racer and I do find it a little slow paced at times. All in all I like it though.

Still no idea what the stars/toolkit/royal options are though?!

Just played the demo, and quite honestly think I'll go and buy the full game. It's good fun, certainly nothing too serious. If nothing else I want to hear what all the other drivers say etc! (Although I do think Kimi has said too much for it to be anywhere near realistic wink ). Mrs has also complained forever that all she wants from a game is Mario Kart, so et voila!

Exactly the same situation and ordered it, as well as another controller so I can do just that! Just waiting for it to be delivered now so I can see what its like!

I bought it later on, on Saturday. Brilliant fun, and will keep people entertained on Xmas Day I think. Not that I want to encourage too much Xboxing from the wife, but it was good fun racing with her. I played a bit of the career mode as well yesterday, all seemed fine although I'm not sure it'll be long-lasting in that mode. Elimination Nation was a good round.
