Also, have a look on Amazon if you get a chance. Fifa 2016 is still pre-order for just over 40 notes.
As promised, last night I sat down and played through the Australian Grand Prix in full (Practice/Q1/Q2/Q3/58 Lap Race) from around 7pm till just after Midnight, graphics etc where excellent particularly with now having a HD TV, really makes a massive difference to playing games on your old standard definition TVs, usually with the F1 Games I skip the practice session as I play a lot of racing car games, but with the new game engine and various car setups I felt the need to get to grips with the game, I also adjusted the settings so that full damage to the vehicle was on, me being me and being a bit of a petrol head I set up the car for maximum speed which would mean I had less downforce and handling of the car, this meant I had to practically drag the car around the corners by shifting the analogue stick as far left & right as possible which was quite hard to do, I then decided changed to the setup to be balanced in the pits where I found it was a lot easier to turn the car in the corners, I did some more practice laps before moving onto the Qualifying Sessions and then the race, where I qualified in Pole Position and also won the race, overall I really enjoyed the 5 Hours or so I spent playing it last night and it was a lot more realistic than the previous F1 Games.
Also downloaded Assassins Creed: Black Flag through Games with Gold as it was available for free which I have yet play, will have to keep an eye out and see what other games get put on this offer.
