IndyCar Series 2005 Reviews
Pete, Infineon, and Walkens Glen, update the driver roster, and I think this game could become quite a hit. You really have to like oval racing and indycars to get anything out of this game, so I don't recommend it for the casual player of racing games. There are difficulty settings that affect the rules of the race and the harder the setting, more rules like damage, pit stops, cautions, and penalties, apply.
Once you are satisfied, you go on to qualify for a starting position, and finally race against other competitors for points in a season. Add a few road courses like St. I own it and prefer to drive manual, without assists and use the driver's view to get the most out of what it lacks in terms of the feel and look of the game, but what I like best is the depth of what you can do with the car setup and race options in season or quick race. You can also choose a quick race by selecting a single track.
while trying to clock your fastest lap possible. For those who are interested in indycars, it's best to rent the game first to see if it meets personal expectations or not before buying it. I would like to see this title improved in the way of graphics. The learning curve can be a bit steep for someone like myself who doesn't know their way around an indycar, but there is a masterclass mode that covers some of the basics and with practice and patience, adjusting the car becomes easier. There are also custom settings that include driver assists to help you get comfortable handling the car. Indycar 2005 definitely has its flaws, but this is one racing game you can't simply start off and win races without a little forethought and planning.
To top it off, you can adjust the number of laps in segments from ten to two hundred. Once you get a grasp of what your car can do, you can go on to compete in a series that spans a single season as yourself in a pre-existing team or as one of the available drivers. The cars do appear to "float" on the track without much ground shadow. Much more can be done to make pit stops seem more like pit stops. Each oval course has it's own individual design differences and you start out test driving your car on the track to find out where you lose speed, oversteer or understeer through the turns, etc. You can go to the "garage" option where you make adjustments to the tire pressure, cambers, springs, front and rear wings, and so on to get the best performance out of your car for that track.
You spend a lot of time on the track, especially in practice and for many, the repetitive driving on ovals may seem tedious.
Buy at your own risk. Don't see much difference in "2005". This is lacking this. Not bad. For example when you stop in the pit the car just pulls into a ghost town and pulls out real quick instead of a crew coming out and completing the job. I was a bit discouraged by the arcade like graphics and lack of higher quality race action that I am wanting for an INDY simulator. This INDY 500 2005 is not bad but we have moved up from this level in my opinion and we really want extream quality and details with our game play and beautiful eye candy graphics.
I was hoping for a better more indepth action of quality here at INDY such as we can find in Forza Motor sport and NASCAR 2005 Chase for the cup even being a bit better as far as race action and graphics compared to this repeat of Indy 500. I want some high quality INDY and nobody has delivered. Im looking forward to "ToCa Racer 2006" this winter where we should see some Sprinter and Grand Prix racing with extream quality and eye candy. Not a big deal but the over all game play is a tad toy like as well. Fun but a little weak.
Try it out. It has good graphics and it is very fun. I would recommend it to a friend. Game is awesome.
The graphics look like something from Sega Dreamcast at best. Don't be sucker for a low price like I was. I guess you get what you pay for. You just go around and around until you catch up to a car in front of you and then you pass it. The sound is okay. This game sucks.
If I wanted to race around and around an oval I would have gotten a NASCAR game. I literally fell asleep playing this game. After about 5 laps there is no point. Save your $20. Rent this game if you just have see for yourself, but you've been warned.
Then, try to make this game look that good. 2. 3. When I switched to XBOX, I decided to wait until the newer version came out. I have last years Indycar Series for PS2. 1. Go rent EA Sports Nascar Thunder 2004 and check out the graphics.
Sam Hornish moved to Penske for 2004. I even checked the box again to make sure I didn't get last year's by mistake.Overall the game is good, especially considering that it's the only Indy game out there. Gil de Ferran retired in 2003. 4. However, if you are an Indy race fan you will be dissapointed.Here are a few suggestion for the folks at Codemasters:. Pray that EA Sports doesn't make an Indy Game. I was suprised to see that there was no difference.
