Ferrari Challenge: Trofeo Pirelli
Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli is a racing game developed by Eutechnyx and published by System 3, based on the  Ferrari Challenge, a single-marque motorsport championship. It is available on Nintendo and Sony platforms in the Western world, and is exclusively available for download on the PlayStation 3 in Korea. The game features 14 playable tracks and Ferrari's own Fiorano test track (for training using a solitary F430 Challenge), a vinyl editor and online play for all versions except the PS2. The Nintendo DS version features wireless multiplayer and the Wii version utilizes Wii Remote steering and support for the Wii Wheel. The game primarily features the driving and racing of the Ferrari F430 Challenge, along with a series of Ferrari road and racing cars that can be unlocked. Gameplay
Driving is less arcade style and more of a simulation. It has a driving experience that is somewhere between Gran Turismo and the Need for Speed games or Race Driver: Grid. All console versions support multiple control schemes, allowing the use of wireless Logitech racing wheels, while the Wii version can be played with the Wii Remote held sideways or the Wii Remote and Nunchuk, with steering handled by either the Wii Wheel or the D-pad for the former. The driving tutorial helps the player to get used to the driving experience. The player drives two laps around the Fiorano Circuit (Ferrari's real test track) with the Ferrari F430 Challenge car with professional race driver Tiff Needell talking and walking through the steps of how to get the most speed out of the F430. There are four main areas the tutorial focuses on: throttle control, use of brakes, apex accuracy, and race line accuracy. There is also a card-playing minigame that is accessible between races. The cars in the game range from road cars to GT production vehicles. The main car of the game is the F430 Challenge, which does not have to be unlocked and appears at the beginning. The other cars are unlocked by winning trophies with different cars or progressing through the Challenge mode of the game. Despite System 3's claims of over 50 Ferraris on disc, no one has ever found more than 22. The in-game tips actually mention the presence of only 22 cars. There are more included in the DLCs, but the idea of 50 cars is supported by the ability to have up to 64 cars in the Showroom feature of the game. Release
Trofeo Pirelli was released in 2008 in the Western world on the Wii, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2 and the Nintendo DS. Five years later, the PlayStation 3 version was made available to download in Korea. Downloadable content
The PlayStation 3 version of the game features two additional downloadable content packs that can be acquired once the game is updated to its latest version. The packs feature unlockable cars and tracks that can also be obtained individually. "Pack 1 - Ferrari Pack" contains one new track (Nürburgring GP track) and five new Ferrari cars: Enzo Ferrari, 430 Scuderia, F330 P4, 599 GTB Fiorano and 612 Scaglietti Sessanta. This pack was released in 2009. "Pack 2" contains one new track (Riviera street circuit) and five new Ferrari cars: 288 GTO, 365 GTS, F430 Spider, F512M 1994 and F40 GT. This pack was released in 2010. Deluxe edition
System 3 also released a cheaper version of Trofeo Pirelli the following year in Europe, titling it Ferrari Challenge: Deluxe and adding new cover art to market it as a budget edition. It is available on the same platforms as the original release. Reception

The game received "mixed or average" reviews on all platforms according to video game review aggregator Metacritic. The Brazilian site Baixaki Jogos rated the PlayStation 3 version of Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli 7.4 out of 10, while the Nintendo Wii version received 6.5 out of 10. Expanded sequel
Ferrari The Race Experience is a racing simulator and an expanded sequel to Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli. It was also developed by Eutechnyx and published by System 3. Ferrari The Race Experience was released for the PlayStation Network in 2010, and on PlayStation 3 disc in 2011. The retail release for the Nintendo Wii was released in 2011, exclusively in Europe. The majority of the 17 circuits and 32 cars have been recycled from Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli (including both DLC packs). Vehicle roster is now extended to include Ferrari models 599XX and 458 Italia. There is a new career mode, with three racing classes (covering Classic cars, GT Road cars and GT Race cars).
