It's just difficult these days for many people to pick up and play when there are next gen racing games on the way. GRID Autosport is a quality product, as one would expect from Codemasters when developing a racing game. In all it is a really fun game, even if some of the major gaming sites are giving it some borderline low scores. The game also has an online mode but I'm not much of an online player so I can't comment about those features, but I do know someone who is playing it and they say it does have lots to do in it. At times it can seem really hard because an induced over-steer is easy to achieve, but practice makes perfect and that's what true racing is about. GRID Autosport or simply the GRID series in general is not a simulation or arcade, it is both, it mixes simulation and the arcade experience both in one. Each option is accompanied by a helpful summary of what each tweak will do, so there is no need to have a in-depth technical car knowledge in order to understand the tuning. The cockpit view has returned as well as car tuning, something that GRID 2 was sadly lacking. Each season, you pick a discipline and sign up with a sponsored team and that team gives you specific objectives to fulfill, like no collision damage and so on. The game demands that you level up in all disciplines if you wish to take part in the special GRID Masters/Legends events that take place at every so many levels. The AI seems very good and exhibits different racing personalities and the game features a wide range of tracks, boasting of around 100. They all require a very particular way of racing, so each time you switch from one group to another you'll need to readjust the way you play and the A.I seems to do the same. The single player career has five disciplines, with the introduction of touring cars, open wheel racing, tuner events, endurance and street racing, there is almost something for everyone. GRID Autosport is an attempt to right some of those wrongs with the simulator fan-base, without pushing away the casual drivers. So far I have put around 8 hours into the game and from what I have played, I would say that GRID Autosport is a ride worth taking. Codemasters is one of the few who carries that style, but surely they have had their ups and downs. I am a big fan of the original GRID as well as Colin McRae DiRT, so when a driving game comes out that tries to implement style, I am sure going to give it everything I got and enjoy the ride.
