We all remember the fantastic achievement by Bradley Wiggins at Team Sky last year, which forced more of us to get on our bikes and cycle around. It even improved sales of the 2012 edition video game. But does this year’s edition take the franchise forward?"
It’s fair to say that the Tour de France has seen a resurgence in interest over the last few years. Between the positives such as Bradley Wiggins’ heroics in 2012 and negatives like the Lance Armstrong scandal, the spotlight has been thrust upon the epic road race more than in recent memory. With this in mind I’ve donned some tight fitting lycra shorts, rubbed Vaseline into my inner thighs and reviewed Le Tour de France 2013 – 100th Edition.
OPM: Coming hot on the heels of the worst sports sim I’ve played on PS3, Tour De France 2012, Cyanide’s annual update to the world of virtual calf strain certainly can’t be accused of resting on its laurels or cashing in on a tried-and-tested formula. Because the existing formula was bobbins and, as a direct result, no one played it.
For fans of racing on cycles, comes Cyanide Studios second Tour De France game in so many months with its Tour De France 2013 100th Edition.
