Fall in love with racing all over again with Grid 2

Darryl Linington from ITF Gaming writes: Let’s face it; racing games can either be rather epic – or the next item to be thrown in the trash. Yes, there are many of them that I have wanted to bin (and some I actually have); however, there are others that have remained in my library of games for many years now. These include Forza 4, Forza Horizon and many of the Need for Speed titles.

"Fall in love with racing all over again with Grid 2"

-LMAO..

I'm sorry how am I suppose to fall in love with racing again when (No cockpit view) I can't even see inside the car..

If you own a PS3 you would be crazy to buy this when a real racing game is coming out (GT6) -But whatever you do, don't buy this new, this is going to hit the garbage bin quicker then you can say OMG!

Give it two weeks and you will be able to find this for $42 bucks new... LoL

So your only real complaint is no cockpit view, and that GT6 is coming out much later this year? Those hardly seem like negatives that would make you want to avoid this game.

Tr10wn4402d ago

N4G logic lol

I am having a blast with Grid 2 for the same reason, i bet he didn't even bother to read the article, he said he is in love because it is actually hard and that is true, anything beyond medium is really hard and that is something Gran Turismo wont give you in a 100 years.

USMC_POLICE4402d ago

As an avid gran turismo player since gt 1 in 1995. I disagree with you. For one I never use cockpit view secondly just because its not like gt doesn't mean its not great. I love it so far. Your talking like a call of duty player....if its not cod it sucks.. that attitude is ruining gaming.

Metfanant4402d ago

i agree 110% that GT6 will be the better game...but using cockpit view is not a good way to go about showing it...consider how awful the cockpit view is on all the standard cars...

SonyWarrior4402d ago

im a big sony fan pre ordered gt5 special edition bundle and even i'm not excited one bit about gt6... Drive Club is where its at this year..

No, I like arcade racers. Nothing even close to sim do I touch.

metalgod884402d ago

I got pretty tired of Forza after the 3rd installment. The games got graphically better, but physics never really felt like they changed much. GT has always been in improving on pretty much all fronts.

I'm enjoying Grid 2, but It feels too arcade like for me without an in car camera. I mean, they have all the data there, wheel support, awesome physics, but without the in car cam, I lose all that immersion they built so well.

Grid 2 is a great game, but I know it could have been even better with that camera. I know, they would have had to build all the in car assets to do that, but even so...I feel it's a huge part of a semi-sim racing game.

So now, I'm just more anxious to play Project C.A.R.S. and GT 6.

NioRide4402d ago

I'm a heavy sim player, Mostly rFactor1/2, iRacing, and Simbin games.

But I have a soft spot for Codies. And at first I was really upset with the no cockpit mode, especially since its been offered since the first TOCA game on ps2 and xbox.

But I picked the game up and so far its fantastic, first night on I play 6 hours straight.

Albie3604402d ago

So sad I wasted my money on such a shit game. Was totally looking forward to this, but an utter disappointment. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS. They should have called it Drift 2.

I was literally about to buy this, mental!

Marcello2138d ago

Well you only had 6 years. Where you been ? on the bog ?

CaptainCook2138d ago

At least you can get the physical version

Lon3wolf2138d ago

Shame, they were giving it away on PC for free recently, that's how I got mine :)

darthv722138d ago

I already have it on disc for 360 so you can still get on physical but those who didnt get on digital... you snooze you lose.

Lon3wolf2138d ago

Indeed and if you are a PC gamer they were giving it away free recently so no excuse :D

Goldenhawk5212138d ago (Edited 2138d ago )

Ugh, damn glad I bought that game with all the dlc when it was on sale. I almost didn't buy it. At least give us a heads up before removing the game? I can't just add to cart because I currently feel like playing the game at the time. Now I add to cart from the fear of it being d-listed without notice. Just like ACIII and TDU 2. I had Alpha Protocol on my wishlist and then that suddenly got removed silently and now it's too late!

The original is better; but grab it nonetheless.

Marcello2221d ago (Edited 2221d ago )

Last chance to get it, from next week it will be gone from steam store for good.

Gwiz2221d ago

Nice,why is it leaving Steam?

Sgt_Slaughter2221d ago

@Gwiz I'd have to assume this is due to licensing issues, since there's so many cars.

darthv722220d ago

I have both on 360, really good racers. So yeah... get it on steam while you can.

Razzer2221d ago

Stuff like this is why I love PC gaming.

FinalFantasyFanatic2220d ago

Great game, but I can only play if for 5 minutes before it crashes and I have to boot the game again. It's a widely known issue on Windows 10 with no fix and no expected update for it either.
