D1 Grand Prix’s style-over-speed gameplay is perfect not for those who enjoy watching the sport, but for those who actually do it understand its persistent challenge.
-
The game offers a good amount of content and the overall appearance isn’t half bad, but the controls (or lack thereof) are the major downfall of D1.
-
Chances are that your average Joe Racer won’t be able to make heads or tails of D1, as mastering the punishing controls may lead to insane rage.
-
Only a small percentage are going to really enjoy all of the overly difficult simulation aspects that go into nailing a successful run in this game.
-
D1 fans will be able to look past the game's numerous flaws and appreciate the fact that there's a game tailored to their specific tastes. The average gamer, on the other hand, will have a hard time getting the hang of the controls and will be a lot less forgiving of the game's flaws.
-
As a complete video game entertainment package, it's rather mediocre. It's a niche aspect of racing, and the whole game revolves around controlling and uncontrollable car.
