GP Fans Rejoice!

by ay84 , Oct 02 '00
Pros: Physics, Weather, AI, Realistic!!!
Cons: Sound could be better...
With the big buzz about the US Grand Prix, many people have overlooked this game because of its lack of the Indy track. To anyone who has, I say that is quite unfortunate because this game is one of the best I have played! The physics are awesome, the...

Grand Prix 3 – the most detailed and accurate F1 simulation

by daedric , Sep 09 '00
Pros: - awesome gameplay/sound/graphics the works
Cons: - multiplayer will be somewhat laggy
Apart from an updated physics engine and AI changes, GP3 - in keeping with the series – will provide a whole slew of options for us to play around with. We will be able to take part in a quick race (just click and go), a non-championship single race and,...

Brilliantly detailed racing game.

by chompish , Jul 23 '01
Pros: Great graphics and gameplay. Weather effects are outstanding.
Cons: Pit crews are not as effective as other aspects of the game.
The Graphics -

One word says it all: wow! The first time you run the game it will "auto-calibrate" the graphics mode and detail for you. The way it does this is there is a 10 second clip of a recorded lap which runs in different graphics...

Petrolheads Delight

by davidjwest , Jul 08 '02
Pros: Very realistic racing with superb attention to detail.
Cons: NOt all that much improved over the original or prequel.
Whilst all serious fans of F1 simulations are no doubt playing Grand Prix 4 by now, I am stuck with this dinosaur, all will be revealed why shortly!

This game is an addon pack for the highly and rightly so acclaimed Grand Prix 3 from...

Grand-Prix 3

by pnh-135 , Jun 16 '01
Pros: Grand Prix 3
Cons: don't know
Now we waited however long enough! Finally he is, the successor of Grand Prix 2 there! Grand Prix 3 is with distance best formula 1 the play it at present gives. The diagram is real breath-robbing.
The auto is represented very realistically and the...

For the Hardcore Racer, Almost Exclusively

by twice , Aug 19 '00
Pros: Gorgeous graphics, quick engine, lots of options, very real.
Cons: no replay function
Having acquired the first two games in this series, and being extremely satisfied with both, I felt obligated to get the third.

Installation was simple, as most games are these days. The game didn't seem to have trouble with any of the...

Show Schumacher whose boss

by yhwman , Jan 30 '01
Pros: Fairly realistic
Cons: A bit buggy and based on the old season
Grand Prix 3 is the definitive Formula One simulator, no doubt about it. The handling and the way the car setup affects it is much improved from Grand Prix 2, where sometimes it would do things that didn’t seem to make much sense. The graphics are also...

One of the best!

by PinchEffect , Sep 13 '00
Pros: Great Graphics, sound and gameplay
Cons: Don't like the shadows though, it's hard.
This F1 racing sim is one of the best around. It has great graphics, sound and the game play rocks! I have played the original grand prix before and this one still feels the same but it just looks so much better. I love racing sims and this one is as...

Is there such a thing as too real?

by lukidawg , Jul 10 '01
Pros: Good graphics, feels and acts like the real thing, fun
Cons: Hard to master
Overall I really enjoy playing Grand Prix 3. The game does have a couple of down sides, but let's start with the positives. First, the driving is very realistic (at least, it feels real to me :)). If you turn off many of the computer assisted options the...

Speed Demon

by Supreme1 , Nov 14 '00
Pros: game play
Cons: sound


Sometimes when I’m driving down the highway, I like to pretend I’m racing the other drivers. Speeding along the road, usually above the speed limit but like who doesn’t, dodging the traffic and passing cars is a thrill. That is, until some...

GP3... The "Reinmeister" of F1 Sims

by cassini , Nov 03 '00
Pros: Weather effects, customisability, AI
Cons: mediocre sound and graphics, no internet multiplay
Well, here I am, writing another review to the most hotly-discussed sim of 2000 (and 1999, in anticipation), maybe ever. GP3 is not what you would call an easy game to play, it falls more into "Oh my god this is so real I wish I was better at...

A non-perfect game made by a supposed perfectionist

by darkucio , May 02 '01
Pros: Somewhat realistic driving, good in-game graphics
Cons: No flags, no information on external camera, car-crane, PITSTOP, AI etc.
All who love playing racing games (especially F1) on PC will know the legendary GP series. This series was almost single-handedly created by a man who is supposedly a perfectionist. His name is of course Geoff Crammond and he is without a doubt one of a...
