Following on from Wednesday’s announcement of GRID 2 here’s a rundown of some things you may have missed:
Media Impressions
Gamesradar – “This has the potential to be the best racing game of the generation, perhaps ever.”
Eurogamer – “It’s clearly a fine sequel that preserves the spirit of a respect game, and it seems to be toeing that delicate line between simulation and arcade racing with as much grace as anything since PGR’s demise”
IGN – “GRID 2 is breathtaking to behold”
PlayStation Official Magazine – “There’s already enough evidence here that GRID 2 will live up to the hopes of those who still claim its predecessor is PlayStation’s finest racer – and attract plenty of new admirers at the same time.”
GameTrailers – “It’s already looking phenomenal. Really, really gorgeous environments, it’s running rock solid and the cars are handling very well.”
CVG – “It’s the delicate fine-tuning that makes GRID 2 purr. The driver AI in particular catches the eye - the CPU drivers each boast three attributes from a pool of 60 which individualise them from the pack – these attributes range from aggression to precision, from reactive speed to their cornering ability.”
The Sixth Axis – “It’s back, and it’s bigger and better than you might have hoped for.”
Digital Spy – “Swapping paint becomes a guilty pleasure again as car bodies crumple and bonnets fly, and the enhanced physics are genuinely noticeable even to the casual observer.”
The Huffington Post – “The GRID 2 team is not afraid to make choice about what to put in the game and the reason I am bothering to write about this is that Codemasters have gone the extra mile to put this game at the industry’s cutting edge.”
The Guardian – “What we’ve experienced of it so far bodes phenomenally well. The cars feel much more real than any we’ve ever experienced in a game – and that includes Gran Turismo 5 and especially, Forza, which has always felt as though it was built in a laboratory by robots.”
