I ask this because iPad 1 does not have a gyroscope, and iPad 2 does. I don't mind if the graphics are a little less sharp on the iPad 1 compared to iPad 2. Habakuk Well-Known Member Dec 11, 2008 4,779 9 38 Vienna, Austria http://rossau.wordpress.com #3 Habakuk, Aug 18, 2011 ^ Yes. Plays well on iPad 1. I could compare because I have both iPads. CHECK PRICES BEFORE DOWNLOAD! Real Racing (non HD version) changes often! (At least here in Austrian App Store). jase23 Well-Known Member Jul 30, 2009 207 0 16 #4 jase23, Aug 18, 2011 Thanks. I'm going to get it then on your recommendation. I don't play a lot of racing games besides a bit of Asphalt 6 and Sega All-Stars cart racing, but this looks to be a very good game, and I don't see it getting much cheaper than $4.99 for the iPad version.
