was looking at more of a sports management game really. i loved the F1 manager game (cant remember which it was now) so a shame they havent continued the series, especially seeing how popular F1 is.
a boxing/wrestling manager would be awesome too.
had theme park when it first came out but it wasnt really for me. i prefer the FM style games rather than building things.

Grand Prix Manager 2 is the last good F1 management sim I played. Unfortunately Infrogames decided to buy out Microprose and shut them down in 2002, so nothing new since

I'm sure there was a more recent F1 manager game that was hyped but ended being very avg. Pole Position, something like that.

+1 for GPM2

That relatively new Pole Position game was dire.

Hmm, interesting, an F1 management game where you can watch the sessions in full 3D...

ya i had that when it came out

was a pretty decent game, the latest one from RTL sucked and wasnt any better than a webbased one like gpro

There's a really good online motorsport management sim called BATracer - http://batracer.com/

I had a go in one of the BTCC championships a while a go and it was good fun. Especially because you are up against other real people, and also need to work with your teammate.

They have a load of different types of motorsports on there, including F1.

RTL released one in 2009 but it was rubbish, i remember "TVSPORTS BOXING" that was bloody epic, someone should make a new one with online leagues and stuff but a proper game not some web based rubbish

cinemaware made so many awesome games back in the day

I use to love that game, not that i ever got further than the 4th fight!
