- This is a new MARTECH production, and
- you have already noticed, what it is
- about. Yes, it's a new Formula One
- racing game.
- At first, you watch a menu with twenty
- icons. The most important one's are on
- the right side. The other 16 are for
- choosing the course, where you want to
- do the race. The important 4 icons are
- for practicing, qualfying/racing, lap
- select and for displaying the score
- tabel/load game/save game.
- As I think that practising is a waste
- of time, you you straightly begin with
- the qualification. Wait until all the
- other cars have passed by and another
- more minute. Now start. As usual, pull
- the stick to the front to speed up,
- down for the brakes, fire&up or fire&
- #move 325,7
- down for the gear control and left or
- right for normal car control. Hit 1-4
- for the turbo speed-up. Don't care if
- you approach bends. You don't realize
- whether it is dangerous or not before
- being in these bends. If so, brake.
- The race itself if very difficult, coz
- all the other drivers seem to hate you
- and they want to ramm ya of the course
- if you try to overtake them. Therefore
- the game is sometimes frustrating.
- Overall, it is quite good, although it
- can't be compared with oldies like
- 'FERRARRI FORMULA ONE SIMULATOR'. With
- regard to that game, N.M.'s G P looks
- very cheap. But the sound and graphics
- are very good. It is really fast and
- cool. In FFOS, the car was controlled
- by the mouse.You had to practise a bit
- but it was quite better than by using
- the stick like here. <MYSTYX>
