    This really is a solid racing game. Even if you are not a real Formula One fan, you will find this game easy to get into and fun to play. Everyone should give this game a try. Just, you know, turn off the announcer voices. Read more

    Formula 1 racing is commonly overshadowed in America by Nascar, but the European division of 989 Sports hopes to change that with Formula One 2001 for the PS2. But they could have a hard time trying to win over the U.S. crowd while still holding true to the rabid fans of the sport. Read more

    Not long ago we reviewed the first Formula One game on the PS2, from Video System and Ubisoft. We absolutely loved it, so it's no wonder that when Sony's official F1 game arrived, we were revved... Created by Sony's Studio Liverpool, the game is fully endorsed by the FIA and, as a result, you get a veritable cornucopia of F1 info. It's almost like an interactive F1 encyclopaedia, such is the depth and scope of information on teams, drivers and the tracks. Also, there... Read more

    It's not the most visually astounding game, but it finds middle ground between being a rigid sim and a strap-in-and-stomp-it arcade racer. Read more

    "My Sole Reason For Buying A Psx Many Years Ago Was For Formula One By Psygnosis. Four Years Later And The Process Has Been Repeated And Again I Am Not Disappointed. This, For Me, Is One Of The Most Realistic Racers Out There. Sorry I Don't Think Racing Against 5 Opponents In Gt3 Counts! The Controls Are Difficult But Then These Are State Of The Art 200 Mph Motorcars!! This Is A Game About Driving On The Edge Not Driving Down To Asda In Your Mum's Ford Fiesta!! When The... Read more

    There are so many racing games on every console you can imagine and it's a very popular type of game. It can be hard sometimes to sift through those that are not quite so good and fine some hidden gems. Formula One 2001 for Playstation 2 is one such game that is definately worth playing and is one of the best. The graphics in this game are of the highest quality and the Playstation's capabilities are used to their full extent. There is detail wherever you look. As you... Read more
