Racedriver Grid

[Whiplash]

got the demo of race driver grid last night.

can't really say much as my PC doesn't really like it (poor old thing)

the drifting is cool, much better than need for speeds effort. I think it will be much better when a steering wheel or controller is used.

any one else tried it where it actually runs more than 30 seconds at a time?

[Redback]

ill try and find it and give it a go. as for teh 30secs you played it for.... any good?

[Whiplash]

yeah, i want to try it on the console before i buy it.

i have a feeling its going to have an arcadey feeling and have the same shitty storyline with fictional series in it.

the drift is fun, and the graphics are great. The crashes look awesome

when i play with all the graphics on low i get really bad frame rate every 30 seconds for 5-10 seconds (3-4 fps)

the replays after the races look awesome aswell, a good camera on the rear bumper, so you can see when you are using handbrake on entry of a corner

I've been playing it on the PS3 - drifting is great fun in it - not as easy/cheesy as Need for Speed's effort, handling to/while drifting is MUCH better than NFS, damage and car getting dirty is great much better than Forza 2, graphics is good, the replay is fun to muck around with.....

The circuit racing in this game is... RUBBISH! The car's handling/physics is way out of whacked.

Is this a demo on xbox live yet? So is it a shit game as what ive read or is it ok?

All i had to do was see a few you tube clips to see how **** this game is.

It seems more arcadey than Daytona at timezone. Makes me sick. All these panzies concentrate on these days is F***ING graphics.

If ferarri challenge is also like this im dead set gonna sell my PS3 and go all out on my PC. Thats where the REAL car games are.

downloaded the demo last night on the ps3, waste of 960mb. Like said before the circuit racing is complete crap.

[Redback]

not going to bother. heard enough

[MADGT4]

IMO

This is what NFS SHOULD have been.

I find the drifting in this to be quiet fun but as mentioned the Circuit racing has alot left to be desired.

Either way i'll probably still purchase this one and if its bad after the 1st week i'll take it back on EB's 7 day return policy and put the money on Metal Gear Solid

iv been playing this demo on 360 for a couple of days now and i cant stop playing it!

the drifting is awesome, as for the circuit racing, the BMW one is boring as bat s**t but the mustang track is great fun even if you just try to have a massive crash to watch the cars fly everywhere, its a hell-of-a-lot-a-fun

3 thumbs up from me

I downloaded it on 360 too but didnt enjoy it much. The S15s look sexy though. They did a good job on the car detail but the gameplay is pretty gay.

the game is crap.... very bad physics

in drift mode, if you turn traction control off you can shift from 1st into 4th and still spin the wheels? must be a huge power with no lag lol

but having said that the drift mode is fun at times
