F1 2011: Stephen Hood interview


In The Telegraph

Formula One returns this weekend, with the Belgian Grand Prix in Spa signalling the end of the mid-season break. Sebastien Vettel sits pretty at the top of the driver's championship, though some gamers will fancy a crack at besting him on the latest video game of the sport, F1 2011, released next month. I had a chance to chat to the chief game designer at Codemasters, Stephen Hood, about how the new game will build on the success of last year's excellent iteration, as well as the new co-op mode and introduction of Formula One's new rules

F1 2010 saw something of a renaissance for the F1 video game, why do you think you hit the sweet spot on that game?

Because it was made by Formula One fans! In all seriousness, we really care about the license, we care about the game content, are driven to make a great game for ourselves and the millions of race and F1 fans out there... we can watch a Practice session and see something that’d make for a good feature, something people would understand and get enjoyment from. The only way you can do that is to live and breathe Formula One.
