That is the crux of the matter: F1 2014 is created for F1 fans so it makes it a tough game to critique in the usual manner. But then if you’re the sort to buy year in and out, you’re probably sold on simply being able to race with the new rule adjustments and up to date cars anyway, and all of that is as finely tuned as you’d expect from the passionate racing minds at Codemasters.
#Ps3 f1 2014 review series
This fact isn’t intended to besmirch F1 2014’s release, it’s more a warning to series stalwarts that you won’t get much new in F1 2014. We’ve known for a while that F1 2015 will be the first outing for the super cars on Xbox One and Playstation 4, and that F1 2014 is the last hurrah on older tech.
This could be largely because Codemasters are busy preparing their true next-gen F1 game behind the scenes, and this is more of a stop gap. It’s telling when the main draw of a title is to experience the rule changes within the real life sport, as opposed to any sort of standout mode or gameplay feature. If nothing else, Codemasters’ F1 games do a fantastic job at showcasing the actual appeal of F1 as a sport, and F1 2014, being a traditionally iterative sequel, continues this laser-sharp focus. In fact, I used to frustrate my Dad by perching on the arm of his chair for the first corner, and then leaving in an exasperated hurumph if there wasn’t a spectacular crash. Indeed, when I was younger that’s exactly what I’d think, catching glimpses of a Sundayafternoon race at 3pm that didn’t look much different to how it was at 2pm.
It’s easy to just look at those stylish, super powered cars practically meandering around the track and think, that’s not terribly exciting.
