OK so this is not actually about F1 but it is about racing. I have talked about racing games before and haven't done it for a while. Haven't had a reason to do that until now.
I bought Mario Kart 8 on Wii U today and this game is absolutely awesome! I own tons of racing games but this is better than anything!
If you have played Mario Kart before then this is a game for you but if you haven't then it may not be as exciting. Some people just love these games and some say that they are for kids etc.
Anyways, I don't care what kind of game this is supposed to be but I know that I can beat anybody! Nobody can beat me if we all drive with the wheel. No controller BS! Challenge me with a steering wheel. It's more challenging and more fun. It also feels more like you're actually driving.

One of my admins came up with a great idea. It's a game! We posted this on the Facebook page earlier today: "ITS OFFICIAL! POINTS: 1st - 3 2nd - 5 3rd - 10
HOW IT WORKS: the aim of the game is simply predict who comes where in the race (top3). A total of 18 points can be won on a race day. If you get winner and and 3rd place right but 2nd wrong you get 13 points same if you get 1 correct. eg. 2nd you get 5 points. If a driver wins the race and you said he would come 2nd or 3rd no points would be awarded. Same if he came in another position, and you predicted that wrong. A table will be posted up every race weekend. The point scoring system will change once the cars become more competitive. Everyone will say a merc 1,2 so it won't be close or fun.
HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR PREDICTIONS: message the page to submit your predictions. you have until lights out to make them. If you submit them when the race has started they won't count. So be quick! like the Mercedes.
THE PRIZE: the winner of the league will win themselves a admin place on the F1 4 LIFE page along side JT, AE & MW. If you don't want to be an admin you are welcome to participate anyway. We may also come up with some other small prize if it helps.
Inbox the page to submit your entry and make your predictions for the 2014 Chinese grand prix! -JT"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You may also post your answers on this blog page or send email to f14lifeblog@gmail.com Personally I like this for several reasons and here's one - I always try to guess the top3 in my GP previews and now you can do it with me! Let the games begin!
Check this out! I just bought this today for 19 euros and it was worth every penny. I could have paid even more for this one because this game is fun as hell!
I heard about this for the first time in November or December if I remember correctly. It came out around christmas and was about 60 euros.
Now it is August already so I guess this game is now "old" or "outdated" and they are selling all the remaining games very cheep.
If you have no idea what this game is then this is a Formula One game made in the same style as the Super Mario Kart games. I love Super Mario Kart and I am very good at it so this game should be a walk in the park for me. This is way cooler though because you don't have to be Mario, Luigi, Yoshi or the princess. You can play as any Formula One driver from the 2012 season!
I haven't played this that much yet but I tried out on a few tracks. I was a few times second and won a race as well. The problem in the beginning was that I didn't really understand everything.
In Super Mario Kart your car is in the same condition from the beginning till the end. This game makes it more difficult. Your car breaks down sometimes and then you have to go to the pits and repair it.
This means that you can't just go straight. You must really overtake your opponents and not crash into them and then suddenly you are in front of them like in Super Mario Kart.
This game is made by Codemasters. They also have official versions of Formula One every year.
In two months the F1 2013 will come out and then I probably gotta get that one as well.
Everybody who own a Playstation 3 usually buy a lot of shooting games and stuff like that. I am not one of those persons. I only buy fighting games and sports games. If you want some examples then here is a few: Mortal Kombat, UFC, Tekken, Street Fighter, FIFA, NHL, F1.
I just love to beat up imaginary ninjas or to be the fastest man on the planet (in my living room).
When I have parties there's almost always somebody who puts the Playstation on and then all the guys are kicking each others asses in different games. The girls usually just complain that we are boring and after a while some of them want's to join us too.
