Formula One - Championship Edition (PS3) price, value & rarity
The Asian edition of Formula One Championship Edition, Studio Liverpool's official simulation of the 2006 Formula 1 season, one of the first F1 titles on the PlayStation 3. With the studio since closed and the official license having changed hands, this game holds value as a witness to a bygone era of F1 on the console. Desirability blends this historical status with the relative scarcity of the Asian run.
Is Formula One - Championship Edition still worth playing in 2026?
A Formula 1 simulation from Studio Liverpool, Formula One Championship Edition reproduces the F1 season with its licensed grid of drivers and circuits, in an early PS3 generation rendering that impressed at the time. The fidelity to the teams, the demanding driving and the grand prix atmosphere win over motorsport fans. The presentation has aged and the online aspect has gone dark with the servers. A good simulation for fans of period Formula 1 and lovers of demanding officially licensed driving.
