"Even though the company does not have a very impressive record with simulations, Codemasters has promised a game that will be appealing to all kinds of racing fans, from arcade lovers to sim racers."

Do the Colin McRae titles not count as sims?

Yes

Having a pedigree in sims doesnt guarantee getting it right though does it? ie. Race Pro?
PC Sims should stay on the PC. Also Codemasters have never really had a slick online multiplayer experience.

Backwards compatibility for 80286 processors in CGA mode?



If it plays like the old arcade game Battlezone I might enjoy this one.

Looks like splinter cell to me.....

I think this will be arcade wit the ability to turn off aids.... that is it.

F1 games - truly the most boring of all computer games. Yawn

I'm enjoying GRID as well, love the varied diciplines keeps you on your toes and doing something new.
There is also just enough cars to keep you buying and enough tinkering between races but not enough to get bogged down and bored with.

AI is good (and unpredictable) except for one stupid thing.... You can never overtake on the inside as the stupid AI cars will always turn in on the back corner of your car stopping you from taking the corner. Happens every fking time!!!!!!!

Only one annoying thing on an otherwise great game though. well worth the £15 in Woolies closing down sale.
