Well first impressions, the handling has been tweaked, not too radically but the handling of the cars seems to have changed slightly really rewarding a good line and turn through a corner. The graphics look more 'matte' than 'gloss' this time but both the cars and tracks are still very detailed and polished looking. There are all the usual modes but now with the addition of a comprehensive scenario mode offering a progression of unlockable themed challenges that all look pretty good fun. The addition of classic cars is in the form of a whole new mode, offering its own GP mode, scenario mode and time trials. All in all it is a very solid package for the GP fan.

cant find the classic Edition on the high street
A new one being being released every year is far to much and is now nothing more then them trying to milk gamers for every penny they can..

No, there's a major bug that standard users and collectors edition users can't race with each other. It's on the Codemasters forums.
From what I know now, I wish I never bought 2010/11 and 12. Only I don't have a DeLorean. :/ Though I'm glad I never bought 2012 for the PC.

Tempted by this. I like the F1 games but they don't differ much from year to year so I might wait till it's £20/£25

Game is a ******* joke. Typical broken crap from codies. I'm sure i'm getting massive driver issues with it. Cant play for more than 1 lap before it crashes. Certainly wont ever buy it again. Complete and utter ****!

I have the classic edition and can easily see/play with standard edition players.
Could only advise the following like GPU drivers etc, check files or whatever else. Myself haven't had any crashes. I have been frustrated at my settings being copied from SP to MP and vice versa so when I play a MP race with no assits/flashbacks that seems to join my SP game as well meaning I have no flashbacks in my race
(Which I need because I'm a nub

Career mode and other single player modes are good, overall the graphics are improved from 2012, particularly the frame rate, which means less input lag at critical moments, which makes the game much more playable.

Is this just a reskinned 2012, or have Codies actually made an attempt to create a physics engine which resembles reality?
^^ yeah that would be nice
The whole controversial rubber banding and CM magic bubble way of "racing"
put me off the entire series probably for good. Shame as a good F1 game is waaay overdue.
