F1 2013 is still the only F1 game that I can spend hours playing a day. That game is just a gem 💎 and the narration of the tracks by Martin Brundle and the track selection was another great touch to it. Another thing about the game was the challenging handling of the cars especially in tracks like Albert Park in Aussie 🇦🇺 and Sepang in Malaysia 🇲🇾. You need to understand the cars' gripping in order to master all new and old tracks in this game but all-in-all still the best F1 game for me 💯🐐💎

[@hayleycooper9299]

Great list , I have several games on 3 different consoles favourites being : Grand prix challenge ps2 ,f1 2013 complete edition, and f1 2020 shuey edition. All brilliant.

[@STVGamingOfficial]

Couldn't agree more with your favourites. The best of their respective generations 😁

[@MRGTR-94]

F1 2006 championship edition on PS3 and F1 2010 are two favourite F1 games of all time. The championship edition was SO far ahead of it's time in terms of graphics and damage model. 2010 I have a soft spot for because I put so many hours into, the music, the paddock menu, felt so real!

[@STVGamingOfficial]

Oh yes, 2010 had such cool vibes! I never actually had F1 Championship Edition but it sure looks super awesome 😍

[@purwantiallan5089]

F1 2021 Main Theme also as amazing as F1 2010.

[@solga8822]

Really good video, everything was logic 👍

[@STVGamingOfficial]

Thanks a lot! 😄

[@SirReznok]

excellent video , you deserve way more subs, keep up the great work mate

[@STVGamingOfficial]

Thanks, mate! 🙂

[@Werferharfer]

f3 in the game would be amazing and the tracks, I believe they race in macau also

[@STVGamingOfficial]

Would be super cool but I am afraid Codemasters would probably limit it to the Formula 3 Championship that only runs on the same tracks as F1. That Macau event is like a one-off special event with largely the same teams and drivers but they might use that to lazy their way out of modeling Macau. Shame as that great track is really underrepresented in racing games...

[@purwantiallan5089]

Wish Macau also featured in F1 2021 game tho.

[@jessecerrillo226]

U deserve more subs with ur good quality content

[@wolftone2437]

Unrelated but I see you made your F1 2020 my team Ravenwest from Grid and I did the same thing the opposite way around 😂, I brought my F1 team from F1 2020 into Grid Legends with the same livery and logos as in F1

I opened my PS5 drawer to check what games i have and realised i have a brand new F12020 Day One edition i never played, never touched. Like most of my collection, I kept buying them but just never had the time to play....

[@rumun559]

I'm actually surprised that F1 2021 is so high on the list. I've always considered it pretty mid. For me the top 3 would be: F1 2020, F1 2013 and F1 2017. My favourite thing is to just open F1 2017 and listen to the soundtrack. It's so good

[@STVGamingOfficial]

It's true, some of the soundtracks were absolute bangers. I still get goosebumps hearing the F1 2010 soundtrack. 2021 is probably very subjective here, as I said I found it hat lots of long-term play value in the career as you were actually able to switch a few tracks back then. That makes a huge difference to me but not to some others 😁

[@od13166]

@@STVGamingOfficial you can do that in lot of F1 game since 2018 like full/16/8 Races its not like new thing in 2021 also 23 they included some race track not race irl though weird that you need play 1 season to make them apear

[@STVGamingOfficial]

@@od13166 Yeah, I know that, but just shorten the season and leave out tracks was not that big of a thing for me than exchanging tracks with ones not raced in that season. Is that possible again in F1 23 and did they change it? When I tried to do that it didn't work even in the second season.

Yeah, it's still the one I spend the most hours in. Even though I found it always difficult to point at what exactly made it so good for me. 😅

[@purwantiallan5089]

​@@STVGamingOfficialsurprisingly, even Ayumu Uehara and her best friend, Shioriko Mifune also love playing F1 2021 especially BRAKING POINT. Sadly it was also one of the LAST GREAT F1 GAMES SO FAR along with 23. Never forget the line in Braking Point: "I never seen driver doing this intense battle like this before. Ayumu and Shioriko WHEEL TO WHEEL!" "Keep it clean." "INCHES SEPARATING THEM AND THEY CRASHED!!!" "OH AYUMU AND SHIORIKO GOT TOGETHER IN SPECTACULAR STYLE, AND THEY'RE BOTH OUT OF THE RACE!!!!".

[@kinidus]

Before you say something about my ranking, I've only played F1 2012, 2014, 22 and 23 1- F1 2020 Idk why but for me it very nostalgic and the game is pretty good, the classic cara made it better 2- F1 2019 It's a very good game. 3-F1 23 The handling is very good, graphics improved and the Braking Point its kinda fun. 4-F1 2018 Very solid and its a good game. 5-F1 2017 The classic cars were something new, so it make it better. 6-F1 2013 YEAAHH CLASSIC CARS AND TRACKS LETS GOO 7-F1 2012 It represented very good the season, but the music of tye game🤫🧏, its tha best and makes it better, also the champions mode is good. 8-F1 2021 Just a regular F1 game, it doesnt have classic cars so it makes it a bit boring (idk I've never played it) 9-F1 2016 A really good game, I know i put It really down, but fron the 4th place to this place, the games are really good and it makes it difficult to choose. 10- F1 2010 It was good to be the first codemasters nice F1 game, 11-F1 2015 Just a regular F1 game, nothing special. 12- F1 2011 People say it has a weird handling, but idk 13-F1 2014 I actually like it, but yeah, its a bad game, the sound of the cars was horrible, and somehow, I like the music of the game, I know im weird 14- F1 22 HORRIBLE HANDLING, DONT PLAY IT 😭😭😭😭

[@ides0745]

To me, F1 23 is fairly rated at 10th until you get a tune on the car, then it’s solid.

[@vinen]

What is the game with video cuts you put in here? The one with the reporter lady and two fighting guys

[@STVGamingOfficial]

That's ToCa Race Driver 2. It was called DTM Race Driver 2 in Germany or V8 Supercars Australia 2 in Australia so you might find it by that name in those countries 🙂

[@pengeagy1789]

Wich would you recommend buying 'cause I have 2020 and 2013 and 2023 and I wanted 2016 but idk if it's worth it, I want it because of the season and by that I mean it had Rosberg the cars looked good and it had JB so would you recommend buying it or buying 2017?

[@STVGamingOfficial]

Hmm, difficult to say but honestly, F1 2017 doesn't really offer anything that 2020 isn't doing better anyway. If you like the cars and drivers of that previous era then I'd go for 2016 but don't expect too much of the career mode, it isn't nearly as in depth as 2020 :)

[@pengeagy1789]

@@STVGamingOfficial Thanks

[@solga8822]

I'm looking for a f1 game to buy right now to change of F1 22, so would you say that F1 20 is the best to buy ?

[@STVGamingOfficial]

I guess it depends on what you're looking for: If you want to stick with Codemasters F1 Games, 2020 was my favourite, it already had the MyTeam mode, still had classic cars and drove well in my opinion. I think I recently even saw that someone made a 1998 season mod for F1 2020. If you're looking to drive and recreate the current season, F1 23 might still be the best choice for you, F1 23 really drives a lot better than 22. My biggest issue with that game is that it doesn't offer anything really new apart from F1 World which I don't like too much, it's not a bad game though. If you have a wheel and want to step things up, it might be worth a shot to look into some sims like, Assetto Corsa, Automobilista 2 (my personal favourite) or rFactor 2. These all offer F1-related content (mostly through mods or in case of AMS2 free community-created skin and AI packs) but be aware that the focus of these games lies almost entirely on driving these cars, there's no career mode or such stuff and not all the F1 rules might be applicable. Sorry, that's a bit of a wall of text but I wanted to give a thorough answer since it really depends on what experience you're looking for. I guess the best thing is to do some research and watch some more gameplay and analysis of those games 🙂

[@solga8822]

@STVGamingOfficial wow thank you and there's no problem for the long message, thanks for taking that much time for me, I'm on console (xbox séries x) and I was looking after a "old" codemasters F1 game. I played 21 and I' on the 22 and because of the lack of "new things" in F1 23 I was planning to wait for the 24 because I was still happy on F1 22. That's why your video had a perfect timing (and it was really good, I don't always watch video of youtube channel with not that much follower but this video was good) and I think I will stay with codemaster F1 games, I wanted to see in the past because I really like to see the driver drive for an other team that we usually see (that's why I like career mode). I think F1 2020 might be cool for me then, trying the old cars would be really cool cause I never had this with F1 21 and 22 and also go back with teams and driver + 2020 cars would be cool I think. Also if I would play at an F1 game older than this, like bellow 2020, which one would be the best, the 19? Sorry for the long message to and thanks again for your response.

[@STVGamingOfficial]

@@solga8822 Of those pre-2020 ones I liked 2019 best but between 2016-2020 I think all of them were pretty good. If you want to try the classic cars 2016 doesn't have them yet and 2017 was still missing the 70s/80s cars that were only in from 2018 onwards.

2018 and 2017 best

[@3pICTheAnimal]

2009 is very underrated for it's time. Not the most realistic but having a full authe tic season with good motion controls was very fun. 2018 and 20 are IMO the only S tier games

[@purwantiallan5089]

F1 2021 also is S tier game.

[@3pICTheAnimal]

@@purwantiallan5089 the reason I don't believe so is because of two things. For one the texture quality on PS4 is less than the PS4 version of 20, 19, and 18. Also career mode AI is unplayable because the AI is unstoppable when upgrades go on the car.

[@WSNBM-1908]

F1 23 is one of the best so far. At least top 3.

wish all of old game got F1 23 handling treatment since i played 23 on controller 23 felt so better never want to go back much better skill based and risk reward then before like previous game least on controller catching the slid asking you use Flashback then anything else since theres really long delay steering wheel go left and right. this was common thing in controllers in racing game lot of games use this for compensate controller players but 23 added slider how reactive steering wheel makes them controller acts like steering wheel this makes 23 enjoyable even you slide you can catch them by rocking left and right and yes it will result degrading tyres because you slip but that something you need risk for. previous f1 game you cant do those even if you can do that you loose lot of places, and you'd better use flashback .
