Manufacturer's Description
Formula One 06 on is all about speed, competition and fast-paced action. If you're a novice, switch on the improved driver and racing aids to race for fun, or turn them off for a full length Grand Prix experience if you're a Formula One professional.

Formula One 06 features the ability to Network Play between PlayStation 2 and PSP. This means players can now compete online across platforms to see who the fastest Formula One 06 racer is. In other words, if you own the PlayStation 2 version of the game and your friend owns the PSP version, you can still compete on the same circuit. For the first time, the experienced Studio Liverpool development team has been hard at work on both titles, to ensure the 2006 games remain innovative and fresh.

Customer Reviews

Pretty darn good
It's got to be said that since F197 games developers have had a shocker in putting such a popular sport into a good, playable and realistic game.

Look no further than this offering. Granted, it's last years driver set (i.e. no Hamilton), however in all categories I really rate this game. The graphics are very fair for the PSP standard (think equal to Pro Evo for example), and its only occasionally that there's a bit of lag... usually when you crasah into the back of a car by not braking adequately!

Gameplay is relayed by a very responsive and realistic car handling set up - drivers aids for beginners and an extensive manual car tuning option for the specialists. Race days are peppered by on-track incidents, and qualifying sessions always hold a risk of rain!

In summary, a very playable and detailed game.

N.B. the career mode is purely driving i.e there is no 'Chief Engineer mode' that is advertised

very good handheld f1 game
This is a good handheld game of F1! This has some pretty decent graphics in the game and the handling of the car is quite good. The only downfall I have is no WiFi and laoding times suck!

Best F1 Game on a Handheld EVER!
I got the first F1 game on PSP (the 2005 version) which was really terrible, and I didn't even consider getting this until I read some reviews and took a chance. Sony have worked this version in-house(Travelers Tales did the 2005 mess)

I don't own a Playstation and I love F1, and I must say this is the finest F1 game I have played since Geoff Crammonds old PC F1 game - which this is much much better than in every way.

The handling is now very very much improved from the 2005 version, and the tracks can be raced closer and closer for that perfect time. This is also the last game to feature Michael Schumacher, as a fan I feel this adds to the charm also.

Essentially, if you love F1 and you want to play on the move, or you don't own a Playstation, the PSP F1 game is the best you can play, by a good margin.
