The cars pass through each other WTF if you can only have 11 human controlled cars then dont bother at all with the AI ones.

I, too, am a huge F1 fan. (watch every race, qualifying, and practice sessions)
I’m extremely excited to hear that this game is coming to my PS3 in a mere 3 weeks! =)
Yes, I read that article Gamespot as well. However…

– I don’t think a limit of 11 online players per race is a small number, so not a big deal there.

– AI cars act as “ghost” cars. This is kinda bothersome, but will likely be fixed for the final release. If anything, it was probably in there from an early build. If not, then I’m guessing they might have an option to turn the AI cars off. Either way, it’s not a deal-breaker for me.

– I LOVE how you can type to chat with other online players. I really find the “chat” feature in Ridge Racer 7 to be super annoying. =/

I find it nice to hear, that even our Canadian “leader” likes the (mostly) European sport Formula One.

I for one prefer the DTM (Deutsch Touring Masters) as they aren that expensive, have more races in my locations (Hockenheim and Nürburgring) and are more fun to watch

BUT, I also watch F1 every now and then, especially Spa, Hockenheim, Nürburgring and Monaco.

And now back to topic…

WHAT THE HECK?? Who thought of that? Sony, do your job and do it RIGHT!

That’s not too good. I’d rather them just take the AI cars out all together. And no collisions with AI is about the weirdest thing I’ve heard. I think it’d be a better idea to remove the AI from online.

The graphics look incredible, but fighting and racing games are the biggest genres I have difficulty parting with my money over. I don’t play them for that long at all. I’ll try to rent it though. I’m pretty sure if I buy one racing game this year it’ll have to be Motor Storm.
