F1 2016 Mobile
Racing 09 November 2016
A mobile installment of the series of Formula 1 themed racing games created by Codemasters, genre veterans from Great Britain. As per title, F1 2016 Mobile recreates the 2016 season, with the game using authentic teams, vehicles, and circuits. During the gameplay, we can race head-to-head with F1 icons such as Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel, Max Verstappen, Fernando Alonso, or Sergio Perez. The game puts a lot of emphasis on handling and performance of the cars, which is made possible by a complex physics engine, unusual for a mobile title. For less experienced players, the game introduces a number of assistance systems, including brake support or power steering. The players can go through a real Formula 1 season, or create a customized one, with individual preferences as to number, location, and types of races. Aside from that, those less interested in career modes can take part a single race, or in more complex weekend races. F1 2016 Mobile doesn’t contain any multiplayer modes, with online rankings being the only substitute of such functions.
F1 2016
Racing 19 August 2016
The next installment in a series of Formula One racing simulators developed by Codemasters. The game was designed in response to the players' feedback received after the release of the previous installment. As usual, F1 2016 features the official F1 license, thus the player takes control of the digital representations of real-life cars and competes against the drivers actually racing in F1 on authentic, faithfully recreated circuits. One track was added in this installment: Baku, Azerbaijan. Among other new features, a special hub-like location deserves a notice - it's where the players can talk to the key members of their team and give them instructions. For the first time in the series, the game features testing sessions allowing the player not only to get familiar with particular tracks (to develop a strategy), but also to earn points required for car upgrades. F1 2016 utilizes an improved version of the engine that powered the previous installment.
F1 2015
Racing 10 July 2015
It is the seventh installment in a race game series devoted to Formula 1. As per usual, the game was created by British developer Codemasters, known for such legendary titles, as Colin McRae Rally, TOCA Race Driver, or Micro Machines. Traditionally, you can play through an entire Formula 1 season, taking part in all test sessions, eliminations, and proper races. The game features also a scenario mode and a multiplayer, letting you compete against living opponents. For the first time in the history of the series the creators adjusted the time of release to coincide with the beginning of the racing season. This enabled the game to synchronize drivers’ condition and performance in-game and in reality, using real-life data. F1 2015 is the first edition of the series designed for the eight generation consoles, which significantly improved the game’s realism and graphics.
