Editorial Review: Product Description: As the all-new racing experience from Codemasters Studios, creators of Colin McRae: DiRT, Race Driver: GRID is all about the race. Every moment from the adrenalin rush at the start lights to the elation at the chequered flag the tension, pressure, noise, and action. Featuring only the most powerful race cars current and classic, circuit and drift players will compete to conquer the most prestigious official race tracks and championships and then go beyond to compete in challenging city-based competitions, through to road events and urban street races. With races crammed with action and incident, high-impact moments will come at you thick and fast, one right after another: engine blows, tyre blow outs, tight overtaking, accidents, opponent cars flipping, spinning, collisions with other cars and trackside objects. From humble beginnings, earning a few thousand dollars a season, build a feared and respected racing team with a multi-million dollar income and complete at dramatic race locations and dominate a multi-disciplined world of racing. In Europe, race prestige Marques, including Aston Martin, Koenigsegg and Pagani, on the greatest official race circuits. Enter street competitions and race high-performance V8 muscle cars through iconic U.S. cities including San Francisco, Washington DC and Detroit. In the Far East, Japanese racing culture sets the tone where night races, including Drift racing, take drivers through neon illuminated cities and to outlying mountain roads. As the antithesis of the box-ticking, plodding single-player race game, Race Driver: GRID delivers a diverse career mode in a persistent world of racing that provides each player with a unique experience as their team writes itself into racing folklore.

![]() Rating: - gridexcellent game, enjoyed the different races (driting and racing)and the way the cars handled (muscle car wollow and drift cars slide)also works well with force gt steering wheel. Rating: - Does not live up to reviews hypeIt's too arcadey for my taste. I don't like the fact that cars slow down for you when you're a long way behind because of an accident. what is that about? There is too much emphasis on crashing/ damage and graphics maybe and not enough emphasis on the actual gameplay. Open wheeled racing is terrible... its like there is no sense of downforce and like driving on an ice-rink because the steering is terrible. Codemasters, please dont ruin the F1 series please! Make it more simulation... however ... Read More Rating: - Great FUN!I am really into racing games. Grand Turismo and Forza at the top of the list. But funwise, this is it! Not as realistic, but not too arcade. Great graphics and images! Great fun and quick to join online games. Only let down is the pontuation process online. It only count 1st places and the rest counts as losses. Should escalate points for 2nd and 3rd places. Still a 5 stars game overall!! Rating: - Great game.I love this game. I think it might actually be the best driving game I have ever played. The feeling of speed and excitement as you are racing is amazing. 210mph in an Aston Martin down the Mulzane Straight in the dark .... wow! This is the game that Gran Turismo should be (Prologue sucks!) The reason I have not given 5 stars is that it can sometimes be really frustrating when another car crashes into you and sends you spinning off the track. I know this happens in real life. But I ... Read More Rating: - Fast paced racing game.There are many reasons to recommend this game, if you are a fan of motorsport then this is particularly aimed at you.All the cars in the game are liveried as race cars from the start, and nearly all of the racing is done on real world circuits. Any car can be raced on any circuit in free race. The new updates have improved the handling, this game works extremely well with steering wheel and pedals.And now available as a platinum title, thoroughly recommended. |
