Summary
Officially licensed by the Formula One Administration and based on the 2002 FIA Formula One World Championship, Grand Prix Challenge is designed to conquer the hearts of all F1 followers. Developed by those talented types at Melbourne House, Grand Prix Challenge brings a level of realism to the physics, handling and racing strategy seldom seen in a console game.
Grand Prix Challenge gets the balance between furrowed-brow, deep gameplay and instant appeal to the novice just right. It's heavily based on real world driving physics and constraints, yet has been tuned to welcome, not scare away, new racers. With its three levels of handling and four different levels of artificial intelligence, will also provide huge depth and compelling challenges for the most experienced player.
Melbourne House has modelled the 22 cars and 17 tracks to an unprecedented level of detail. Even the many drivers' personal styles have been simulated. Pit-stops are now interactive, which means that you are responsible for the performance of your pit crew. Those valuable tenths and hundredths of seconds are now down to your own skill and judgement.
Grand Prix Challenge offers five addictive game modes that will keep you coming back for more, from Championship mode, where you can experience all the thrills of a full season, to frenzied multiplayer races for up to four players on a split screen. Grand Prix Challenge on PS2 is set to leave its competitors behind in a screen of burning tyre smoke. Watch it go!
