Important Health Warning: Photosensitive Seizures

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people with no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. Symptoms can include light-headedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, momentary loss of awareness, and loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents, watch for or ask children about these symptoms— children and teenagers are more likely to experience these seizures. The risk may be reduced by being farther from the screen; using a smaller screen; playing in a well-lit room, and not playing when drowsy or fatigued. If you or any relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.

SAVE/LOADThe game does not have an autosave feature, but Tour de France 2014 enables you to save your game progress manually during a stage and at any time during the race (Pause Menu > Save).

We strongly recommend that you save your game regularly during a stage and particularly before each key moment in the race such as a sprint or a perilous ascent.These race moments will be indicated by an icon in the top right of the screen.

The game also allows you to save your game progress after each stage.

Note: We strongly recommend you do not turn off the console while loading or saving a game. You cannot save a game during a time trial race.
