Just wondering, aside from the fact that F1:CE is the 2006 season and tracks/teams, how do they stack up in your opinion? What do you like from each?
BTW, I do own both myself (F1 2010 on 360, and F1:CE)....just wondering what you all think as I'm certainly no F1 specialist and haven't logged much time yet on either title (but enjoy both).
For me:
F1 2010:
I love the whole sense of really being a part of the team, the level of interactivity with the trailer setup, the press interviews, and the garage actually being..a garage LOL I like that you get SOME interaction there with the tires selection, the engineer, the race computer, etc. And even being able to drive out of the garage. Great stuff.
The racing is sublime so far....I run 20% races on career mode, with brake assist off, traction control on medium. I'm not very good yet, but I love seeing myself improve as I run the laps, learn how not to spin or run off the course, etc. LOL. The graphics are fantastic, I need to try a 'wet' race and check out the weather effects; I've only had to run in sun or cloudy days, but no rain as of yet.
I like that you can watch full replays of the race instead of partials too.
F1:CE:
I'm not too keen on the PS3's dual-stick arrangement for steering, throttle and brake, but I can adapt. It's still not as precise for me in brake/accel as the 360's triggers, but the steering seems a touch better. Also, the racing line doesn't seem quite as dynamic as in F1 2010?
I do get a kick out of running a 'parade' lap to warm up the tires and have one more look at the track before going to speed.
I don't feel quite as 'connected' to the game as I do to 2010 because of the more clinical menus and structure, but it's still good fun. Just not as engaging and addictive to me (so far).
I do LOVE the replays on F1:CE though....they actually top 2010's for tv-style presentation and are VERY smooth. But they don't do the whole race, and you cannot view one post-race, only IN-race...or after a time trial.
Just your thoughts on the games....I'm not trying to incite a flame war here, guys! I know F1 2010 has become a very 'hot' topic due to some issues, but take what you like about both of these next-gen F1 games and post here if you have both or have played both.

I'll try that tonight.
The angles and replay presentation are awesome, but it's so short.
