As soon as the game loaded, one thing became apparent – Ferrari Challenge takes itself seriously. As it should. Everything from the interface and the music to the cinematic replays and true-to-life car modeling, is crafted to reflect a high standard of quality. Then again, when using the official Ferrari name and license, quality is of the highest importance. Ferrari Challenge sticks to its unadulterated racing simulation roots, forfeiting exaggerated car models, RPG elements and unrealistic crash sequences popular in many recent racing titles. Cale explained that no one involved with the project is ashamed to admit that Ferrari Challenge is a simulation title. They strive to be realistic, not tabloid in nature. He expects that purist racing fanatics will enjoy speeding from circuit to circuit, and won’t require any fluff between races to keep them engaged.
