 Ferrari F355 Challenge Review - GamersHell.com
During the game itself sound effects tend to be of equally poor quality, what is supposed to sound like a F355 engine roar could have been generated on any cheap synthesizer and the ever so squealing tires will get on your nerves before you can say “Suzuka”.
There are few advantages, like the selectable F355 or the authentic courses, and disadvantages in handling and AI, but no major improvements or innovative aspects.
If you like Ferrari and always have been desperate to ride one of these boxes of incredible luxury you might just ignore this facts and still buy the game.

This is where Ferrari F355 Challenge comes into play.
Ferrari F355 Challenge (FFC) is strictly a simulation game with two great aspect views – either from behind (the only view I ever see of a Ferrari on the road – friggin’ Jeep) or in a driver’s seat perspective complete with a bitchin’ HUD display that gives you so much information you’ll be giddy.
All in all, Ferrari 355 Challenge is a solid title that won’t break any new racing barriers but is an acceptably fun way to kill some time.

Ferrari F355 Challenge comes with four gameplay modes split the frame and backbone: Arcade, Championship, Great Driver Challenge, and Versus Play.
This game is a new version of the 2000 Sega Dreamcast game, which in turn was a port of a 1999 Naomi title; it really shouldn't be too much of a surprise, considering who is at the helm, that this is a very time-consuming simulation that's also mired with arcade sensibilities.
Though Ferrari F355 Challenge balances between being a tough title that the dedicated would not want to get too involved with to one that is just a ton of fun with hours and hours of playtime.
