Just got an email from codemasters announcing their new game I spose.

Its called Racedriver Grid.

I am sure it will be no Gran Turismo 5 But it does look like it may be good.

Yeah I found it a little difficult, didnt like the drifting race but the other two races were ok, looks pretty good, real shame theres no V8's this time around.

the drift event is crazy, 500,000 points to win?! best i can get is 125,000.
at least the GT5 demo had slow cars to work you up to the kings of wheelspin.

according to that theres going to be a seperate game for the v8s. i dont see why they couldnt just add it into GRID. I bet itll just be a GRID clone with only v8s and aus tracks.

That is the best news Ive had all year, really hope it happens & the V8's get their own game with all cars/drivers & tracks.

Yeah I gave it another play this afternoon before going to work & managed to place 1st in both races, didnt try drifting again, Im hopeless at drifting & need to practice.

Also had a couple of online races which was fun.

I know its only a demo but wish it had support for the G25 wheel, like I havent tried it, Im just assuming it doesnt as it wasnt in the control options. Can be alot more precise with the acceleration & braking with the wheel.

Well the clutch only works on GT5P as far as I know, no other games are yet to use it. Ill give it a go with the wheel Sunday, got a wedding to go to tommorrow after I finish work in the morning.

one of the coolest things is that you can pick your name and it says it while you drive ie good lap 'john' (not my name lol) its a nice touch

Yeah I thought that was cool too, it also says it at the start of a race, your pit crew says, cmon John we need to finish in the top 3, or something like that. Its a nice personal touch.

My first go of it I thought it was a bit like that but then on my second go I really concetrated on the acceleration & hitting the apex & it felt heaps better.

I think its great too, has a totally different racing feel to DiRT which is good. (Yes i know DiRT was an rally/offroad game) Drifting is gonna be huge in this, it got me hooked after a few shots. I managed to get 1, 051, 781.pts in the drifting. Best combo was a x8 which scored 448,000. Codemasters have done well once more........ Also, im pretty sure the Mustang is a V8??

So does the G25 work with this, anyone tried it yet?

Does feel very arcadey, but still fun, one spin and you go from 1st to 20th though which is gay!
