Old School Racing

Postby Soames » Tue Feb 05, 2008 7:28 pm

I dug out my copy of Grand Prix Legends today.

She's 10 years old this year and looking a bit ropey by todays standards, but its still a great drive if you can master it.

Crap rubber, no wings, potential death around every corner. This is what F1 should be.

Really ought to find a replacement, but nothing has come close yet.

great game, really tough to drive without a steering wheel and pedals, and I dont say that often about racing games.

I've never tried wheels and pedals but I do use an old PS1 Namco NegCon.

It's brilliant for racers giving analogue control for gas, brake, steering and clutch.

Ten years?!! Are you sure? I'd have said more like 6, 7. Very nice!

It's modded to hell of course. That's the best thing about this game and PC gaming in general. The online community has been keeping it alive with skin updates, audio improvements, tracks and total conversion mods.
