F1 2012 PC Review

Graphically the game looks fantastic, I will remind you I am running this on a GTX 660ti, which isn’t the most expensive card ever but it’s not exactly budget friendly either, so all my screenshots are with every graphics option set to maximum.

The game does look fantastic though, the cars are superbly detailed and offer up some stunning reflections and lighting throughout.

The only thing that really disapointed me was that everything else looks a little plain. The tracks are well detailed and do look very authentic but don’t offer much eye candy. This here doesn’t matter much when your going at eye watering speed though and the sensation of speed the game offers is fantastic.

The cut-scenes appear to be produced in real time and do look fantastic too, the pit crews and racers are superbly detailed.

Even with 32 cars on the track the game showed no signs of slowing down and the game handles particle effects like smoke and dust really well. A wet track has to be one of the best looking things in the game though, giving you some really nice reflections on the racing surface.
