Take part in action-packed races all over the world
Feel like taking part in exciting races all over the world? Then Race Driver: GRID is definitely the game you’re looking for.
This amazing game lets you join different racing events in several locations across three continents, always challenging you in various ways: drifting along the streets of a Japanese urban cirtuit, taking part in the DTM series or racing in the Daytona track with a powerful NASCAR vehicle, just to mention the three possibilities made available in the game’s demo.
No matter which option you choose, you’ll get a glimpse of the game’s breath-taking graphics. Cars are designed with such an impressive level of detail that I’m starting to wonder if there’s any room left for further improvements in this field. The physics are also faithful to reality, so you better learn fast how to control your car if you don’t want to eat all the curves in the track.
Race Drive: GRID includes several camera modes, including one from the inside of the car that shows up loads of details and even changes all the sounds of the game. Another amazing option is the possibility to go back to race after smashing your car by replaying your last few movements before the crash and trying to correct your path.
The Race Drive: GRID demo features the three aforementioned races plus a multiplayer option, which I had some problems to test but finally managed to make it work. My advice though is that you get a bit of training before you try your luck on multiplayer races: it’s all full of master players out there.
Though a bit difficult to control at first, Race Drive: GRID is a highly realistic racing game with an interesting multiplayer option that’s going to please all motor fans for sure.
Race Driver: GRID will take players to beautifully realised and dramatic race locations over three continents to compete in an unprecedented variety of racing events. Packed with the most powerful race cars, new 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.
The demo offers 3 events to compete in. The eBay Motors Muscle Cup sees you taking the wheel of a Ford Mustang GT-R and the streets of San Francisco, the Advan International Trophy hands you a Nissan S15 Silvia and your playground is Yokohama Docks, and the Euro Touring Car Series provides some old-school tin-top thrills with a BMW 320si touring car and the sweeping curves and hairpins of Jarama.
