Codemasters know what they are doing - I'm gutted I have to wait till 2010 though for a decent racing game. Gran Turismo 5 also seems to be taking ages to be done.
Niente è vero, tutto è permesso

I'm dissapointed just as you are,that's why I'm playing RBR for 3 years now (no SEGA rally or DIRT can change that)...
I actually understand them,arcade games are sold A LOT better than real sims...
Simulations are harder (I know people who stopped playing RBR after one day because it's too hard,while I'm sure that wouldn't happen with DIRT or any NFS) and they require additional gear for the real experience.
The only games I really enjoyed in the last 4 years as a hardcore fan were RBR and Gran Turismo 4. I enjoyed CMR 5 and WRC 3-4 but they aren't real sims

given up on racing games
I was a bit disappointed when I heard codemasters were doing the next F1 game.
Their toca/v8 series has morphed very slowly from its first, undriveable effort.
The latest 2 have been ok but, to be honest, I lose interest with the plethora of crap cars (gran turismo etc)and have a MAJOR problem having to sit ridiculous licence tests & game unlocks over & over & over.
I would conservatively be a 30 time world champion, 100 time GP winner & 20 time touring car champ yet, they make me take silly lessons every time.
JUST GIVE ME THE F*CKEN CARS & TRACKS!!!
It really grates when I realise its inversely proportional to the road licence system in my country!
Game design/planning is another pet-hate; why have tyres that wont last more than a few laps? Does the driver have to always setup the car, are the pit-crews state-run department-of-idiots? (not to mention some of the pit dialogue!)
It seems to me they could make one game, then sell upgrades thereafter to suit demand for classes & cars & everyone wins.
Geoff Crammond's GP series on PC was King. Then it got bought out, re-hashed & burned.
What a pity.

In fact, rather than pissing me off with their childish tricks, they should be sending me a demo for approval!!
Spend money on another half-arsed effort, um... no.

Oh. Okay. I know EA had for a while and right when they decided to bow out they made a great game in F1 Challenge 99-02.
What I would really like to see is a career mode." Lady - I'm in an awful dilemma.

Almost all Finn's since Paavo Nurmi who are fast in their sport have been called "Flying", particularly the 1960's rally drivers, but I was actually thinking of "Flying Finnish" - the timing line at...
