    The biggest novelty in GP4 is the completely new, better and more efficient engine which provides higher level of detail, and more realistic effects.

    Veteran F1 racing enthusiasts - those who don't like to see their PC sims equipped with meddlesome graphic controls and training-wheel physics - are advised to stick to "F1 2002." [Dec 2002, p.98]

    If this game had come out 4 years ago, it may have been worth purchasing. It's in desperate need of a patch to fix the controller and menu issues.

    The definitive F1 SIMULATION. Where as EA's efforts are just GAMES, this is as close to the real thing as anyone will ever get. Many will say very little has improved over GP3, but why bother to fix what ain't all that broke. What's needed to be done has been, and what was already pure gold has been polished. As for complaint's about the steering help, well you'll just have to get better and switch it off. For those who want a hollow GAME with all the razzamatazz, by all means go for F1 2002. But if something of a little more substance is what you are after then definitely get Grand Prix 4. Too bad SCEE now has a tight hold over the F1 licence coz from now until 2007, if you want the Official game, get a PS2 and have fun with the arcade efforts SCEE spews forth. … Expand

    Controls a pain to setup. Track flies by at the same speed whether you're going 65mph or 190mph. Not much of an improvement over EA';s stuff, even F1 2001… Expand
