    It doesn't have the best graphics out there, but frankly, it has everything else in spades.

    A decent and somewhat playable PS2 F1 game, but not one I would recommend to people who take their racing games very seriously, especially given the very limited feature set of the first release, the overly arcade-style physics model, and the poorly modeled AI.
  3. May not be the deepest game in terms of overall features, but it still has enough inherent playability to warrant the attention of both veteran and casual game players alike.

    There isn't much replay value, and not much else to make F1CS2000 stand out as a racing game.
  5. Has everything an F1 fan could desire. But for experts it may be a little too easy, and for outsiders it's just not as fun as some of the other racing games out there.
  6. A relatively solid, if unspectacular, first effort for the F1 Championship series on the PS2 that plays pretty realistically. On the other hand, there's nothing here that a casual racing fan would find immediately compelling.
  7. With solid multiplayer, a deep rich customizable single player experience and true next generation graphics, EA Sports first PS2 F1 game succeeds in many areas.
  8. F1 sports some of the worst AI imaginable. The AI in a racing game usually drives very well on the track, at a good speed, making slow turns, and staying on a set line on the road. None of that happens in F1.
  9. While the graphics hold up their end, the gameplay just isn't there for simulation fans to keep them satisfied for the long haul.

    By no means a bad game, but it's going to require a lot more than a quick tune-up and lube job if it ever wishes to turn the corner and become a great PS2 racing game.

    Something we were actually outraged by was the fact that that in two-player mode there are no AI cars at all.
