From what I can tell F1 06 just came out and Europe, I was wondering if anyone has picked up the PS2 or PSP versions yet. I've heard the PSP version is going to be better this time than 05, as it's being done by the same team that did F1 06 PS2

On another note, I'm probably going to import the PSP version to the US, does anyone know some places in Europe that will ship the game to North America?

I've played 06 for the PSP and it is just the same as the PS2 version of 04. Maybe the PS2 version is better but don't expect much new stuff.


One thing though. Without the analog control(especially brakes and gas) it is very difficult to control your car on the most realistic setting. It's not suited for the handheld.

Yeah, I figured that might be a problem, I'm just dying for some F1 action and don't have a modded PS2. Pricey though, Europeans really get screwed on pricing.

I've only had one 10% race with the PS2 version and it blows away F1 '05, and every other console F1 game before it.

I'll bump the thread with some impressions and videos when I've had a good play. Oh, and for some reason Sony have removed the online play mode.

I couldn't get into the online mode of my PSP version. Maybe because it's a review version.


One thing that is nice(I don't know if 05 has it), is the possibility to use 06 weather and circumstances. This can be updated during the season via the network option.

shame on sony - they removed the online functions from the 06 ps2 game within the last minutes before release.

I tried the Europeen PSP game and i had a big fat "meh".
It's very arcadey from what i've played.
