![]() It's certainly an impressive work of simulation, especially since it comes from Eutechnyx. It has more in common with a Formula 1 or Superbike game than most of its four-wheeled peers. Brake hard and brake early, or every corner becomes a trap, draining precious seconds through wasted momentum and forced penalties. The handling model is robust and convincing, but also ferociously tough and unforgiving. The approach is hardcore simulation rather than arcade thrills which already places this in a niche within a niche. As far as the Church of Ferrarism is concerned, we're preaching to the converted rather than knocking on your door and trying to change your life with a fistful of evangelical leaflets. If you're not already besotted with the brand, and don't get off on deeply technical racing games, then it doesn't want to know. Created and designed to indulge System 3 boss Mark Cale's hot burning for all things Ferrari, the game itself ultimately does little to explain where this passion comes from. This is a game that opens with a sensual car close-up soundtracked by soaring choral music. If the answer is no, then Ferrari Challenge has little to offer you. ![]() Do you follow the work of the Church of Ferrarism? Do you put your faith in the prancing horse, give thanks to the healing power of sleek red bodywork, offer silent prayer in the direction of Fiorano?
