F1 Race Stars
Oftentimes picking up an official license means developers are required to make offshoot games. F1 Race Stars – a kart takeoff of Codemasters' racing series, seems to be one of those cases.
It shouldn't come as a surprise that some F1 racers have big heads, but in the case of F1 Race Stars, we're not talking about their egos. The game embraces the family-fun karting vibe by placing real-life racers like Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton, and Fernando Alonso in fantastic versions of actual tracks such as Silverstone, Monoco, and the new F1 track in San Antonio. The video trailer below even shows times when tracks will transform and stretch into the sky. Here's hoping that occurrences like this help the game stand out from the pack.
The game will also feature four-player splitscreen and 12-player online multiplayer, along with a career mode with a championship schedule.
F1 Race Stars hits the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC this November.
