Noticed ******* to email that this is out in two weeks, i had heard nothing of it, but its a new management sim.

Looks like a conversion of a german management game, may be good, may be awful!

Good post.

People on the forums have recently been talking about GP Manager and the like, how bizarre this should come around.

Will keep my eyes open for this.

Where can I buy it?

Very interested in this been waiting for a manager for many years for F1 i do believe i have all the old ones some place.

Just hope it's going to do job.

This is not good news as the last F1 management game Kalypso made was terrible. It really was a horrible experience.

That's ****** that hope then...

Kalypso are a Publisher, not a developer.

This game is being made by different developers.

I will let someone else be guinea pig then.

Looks like they are doing both :confused:

Developer: Kalypso
Publisher: Kalypso

Well I will be watching this, been playing GPro a lot and really do want a proper management game to come out, like the racing sport equivalent of Football Manager.

Fonz-Valo · 20 Apr 2010 at 12:45

I had my hopes up that Namco had made a new Pole Position game

I used to love the original all those years ago lol

utajoker · 25 Apr 2010 at 20:02

out on friday!

Noto · 26 Apr 2010 at 22:59

tagging, interested in a review. Their line up of previous games leaves much to be desired.. most are modern re-hashes of established games. Maybe they can pull one out the bag

CaptainRAVE · 27 Apr 2010 at 09:00

Was going to pre-order this, but have spent too much money. Would appreciate a review from someone here though!

No official license makes it seem a bit pointless.

It's not ideal but hardly pointless. The PES games have always been brilliant and successful without a licence.

damn them graphics look ugly.

Also comes with an editor to change all the driver/team names

The cars all have the same designs as the real F1 cars.

Fingers crossed anyway

Yep, also got an email saying it's been delayed.
Just cancelled and ordered a copy off MM which say they have 4 in stock.
