F1 Race Stars Gives the F1 Experience a Karting Makeover

[Commander Fury]

<a href="http://http://www.codemasters.com">Codemasters</a> are well known for creating racing games with lots of depth, and in many ways our brief for <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games-and-media/games/f1-race-stars-ps3.html">F1 Race Stars </a>(out on PS3 November 20th) was no different. When designing the game’s structure we intended to provide ongoing variety as crucially as the instant appeal you’d expect from a “karting†game.

 

Firstly, along with the typical race event, we have introduced a host of other modes of racing. There are eight in total, each requiring unique skills and strategy -- some will feel instantly familiar to gamers, and some will feel entirely fresh and unique.

 

For example, we've introduced Refuel mode - based on the principles of fuel strategy in F1, where fuel re-stocks are placed around the track, but carrying less fuel means more speed. Or Trophy Chase mode, a smash and grab event where players collect trophies, found both on the track and stolen from other drivers. Gamers should feel instantly at home with other modes such as Sector Snatch mode, where players can own sectors of each track by setting the fastest split time though it, or racing in a classic Elimination mode.
