Title: F1 Race Stars $3.74 at Steam
Post by: BadMouth on May 05, 2016, 04:04:24 pm

Steam Spring Sale has Codemasters games.
Prices are meh.  Most of these games have been much cheaper in the past.

The one standout is F1 Race Stars for $3.74.
(The cheapest previous price I remember is $9.99)

It's a Super Mario kart type game with real F1 drivers as the characters.
No idea if it works with wheels.  Since it's codemasters, there's a good chance.
I bought it, but probably won't get a chance to try it out very soon.

I downloaded a demo of this on PS3 years ago. it actually looked pretty good and ran at 60 fps, which is always a bonus in my book. One thing that was a bit weird for a kart racer though (from what I can remember) was that there was no drift mechanic. That price sounds pretty bargain-tstic though, I may give this a punt.
