Race Driver: Grid - Drifting?? - Page 7 - Drifting forum

griffo20022 · 18-05-2008, 16:17

I found it quite an entertaining game

I reckon the Drift physics are a bit exagerated but it's still defo fun

even the normal races I found pretty good

The graphics are f*cking immense too!

The most I've got out of 3 laps is 5,900,000. But you can turn around at the end of the lap, drive back to the start near enough, turn around and do the lap again for more points.

Good for a laugh

which is what games are all about.

If I want realism, my car is sat outside

Dex · 26-05-2008, 22:37

i finally downed it lol. its fun, arcady but just about what i expected. drives alot better with all driving aids off! TC DEFFO needs to be off, can link corners much easier. high score is 590xxx now. weak i know, but i tried 5 times lol

Crosshatch · 26-05-2008, 22:39

i hit 52 mil, realised that i spent 2 hours trying to do that and turned the xbox off

kroozin86 · 26-05-2008, 22:53

i dont think it will run on my laptop

get a job ps3 FTW. I play lfs with g25 already and thats good. Is the drifting like need for speed or sim?

OrionRS · 26-05-2008, 22:56

I cant score more than 4000!

mint · 27-05-2008, 07:29

I've just got this, 100% original full version on the Xbox 360 booyah

Dex · 28-05-2008, 21:41

hit 2.2 million today

griffo20022 · 28-05-2008, 21:44

Haha awsome! I've been playing it for a while now, and my verdict is..... It's AWSOME!

It even has Pro Touge battles!!!!! Absolutely top b*llock! Still not too sure about the physics etc but the fun factor is bang on

!!!

Dex · 28-05-2008, 21:45

What are the other drift tracks like?

griffo20022 · 28-05-2008, 22:17

They're spot on, only drove 2 others at the mo, you can drift on the touge stages though which is awsome! Hehe, theres also a touge track on Mt. Haruna called the Takumi run

Theres also some freestyle drift tracks on here too!

Think theres even a Demolition Derby series

Corey_XR4I · 28-05-2008, 22:19

This game is pants, not a patch on forza or GT5 i got it a few days back, can get any proof you want if you dont believe me but trust me dont waste £40 on this game, buy forza instead

what a load of crap

[/rant off]

griffo20022 · 28-05-2008, 22:27

To be honest it's not the kind of game i'd compare to the likes of Forza and GT5, there both full on racing sims, this is as what Dex describes it as, a fun arcadey style game with some realistic tendencies! Meh I love it anyway

haven't played a game I could really get into for a while now!

Corey_XR4I · 28-05-2008, 22:41

yea in all fairness it isnt really the same sort of game as forza, but people who are expecting big are in for a surprise, the one good thing i like about grid is the AI its hard and is like real car racing, when you try and pass they will block and sometimes if they block and not look infront then go into the people infront of them, drifting on the game is like a neverending burnout and cant really spin out as when you are just about to all you do is take your finger off the throttle and it straightens up, and another thing is at the begging of the game you need to save up $40k for your own team and id thought it would take a while to do but took me all of 5mins and i wasnt really trying, only played it for 30mins and switched it off, maybe have another little go in 15mins

just hope online will be good, but i cant go online until i get the original as i will get banned
