Race Driver: GRID
Reviewer: allaboutgames.co.uk21 August 2008- Overall 9
The game has a competent and long career mode detailed earlier, as well as the usual single race options. Unfortunately, as is now the trend on the current generation of consoles, there's no split-screen multiplayer, and I'll again say that this is especially disappointing for a genre which thrives on being able to compete with someone in the same room. There is, however, full online play for up to 12 players complete with damage, and plenty of people experienced on the... Read more

If you can deal with the glitches then you have an amazing game on your hands with Race Driver GRID. There may not be a huge number of cars, or a soundtrack of chart tunes, but this is the most realistic and compulsive racing experience you can currently get on any platform. Codemasters has proved that you don’t have to be Gran Turismo to beat it, you just have to be different - and every difference that GRID features, from the wholly original Instant Replay function...

GRID is an Excellent Arcade Racer
Reviewer: Ciao4 weeks ago- Overall 8
GRID does the racing experience better than any other game out there right now. In terms of graphics, AI, car damage, and features on offer it stands out as an excellent proposition. Where the game falls down slightly is in the car handling - the game does not go for a realistic style and instead attempts a more drift-based arcade style of racing. This never quite feels right as the cars lack weight and don't behave as you'd expect. However, when you get used to the... Read more

Race Driver Grid
Reviewer: Boomerang Video Game Rental Online14 July 2008- Overall 8
I really enjoyed this game, I played it on the basic level the whole way through because I'm not into hardcore racing games. I'd say this game is more arcadey than serious simulation but that's fine with me. I'd recommend this game to other casual car racing fans who want to be able to smash into other cars at corners and drive away in the lead! Read more
