Summary
Geoff Crammond’s Grand Prix series is widely regarded as the definitive collection of Formula 1 simulations. Grand Prix 2000 season is an add-on pack for Grand Prix 3 that improves the gaming experience and adds new driver, car and course data.
For all of you up and coming F1 stars this is your chance to race against the best drivers in the world. If you think that you have the raw skill to keep up with them, then step up to the challenge.
Since Grand Prix 3 skipped the 1999 season, the 2000 add-on includes Indianapolis and Sepang, the Malaysian masterpiece of a track. These two new tracks add variety to the racing calendar and add a new challenge.
Other improvements include updated team colours for the cars, and the addition of new buildings and camera crews. Geoff Crammond has tweaked the physics, the artificial intelligence and gameplay of Grand Prix 3 to offer a new level of realism. This is probably as close as we are going to come to driving a real F1 car. Even though we all think we could really do it, after several engine stalls and one major first corner incident, well, it wouldn’t be pretty.
Another new feature is the Hot Laps mode. Think of single-player time trials and qualifying sessions and you’ll have a good idea of what to expect. With other refinements to the 3D game engine, graphics, effects and sounds, Grand Prix 2000 season is a worthy update to a modern classic.
