This looks great. The cockpit view alone is a huge upgrade over Grid 2 and Autosport (Autosport's cockpit view was a joke).
The second track, in night time and wet tarmac looks significantly better than anytihng in 2 or Autosport. Also, I wonder if this will be 60 fps on consoles. The previous Grid's were 30 fps there.

Looks like Grid but prettier graphix
Sounds like a good deal to me.
Codie's non simulation side of teams havent put out a single great game since... DiRT 2? Their simulation leaning games have been nice though.
Maybe I'm misremembering, but Grid 1/2 looked like that. The graphics, the overall visual identity (same kind of lightning tone), the type of race, the type of location... so I'm not sure why I should buy it, instead of reinstalling it.
Yeah, this looks so much like the original GRID games, for better or worse. For better because those were lovely games with a neat handling and a real feeling of driving "rough" cars, unlike stuff like Forza or Gran Turismo that always felt smoother. For worse because the visual style and everything looks like an upressed last-gen game. Don't think I'll play this at launch but given Codies' great presence on Game Pass I assume this will be on the service not long after launch, just like the last DIRT games, F1 2018 and so on.
The second race looks much better but both locations look very familiar I hope there are new locations. Also, I wish it had a GRiD 1 tone to it but it pretty much looks like a GRiD 2's foundation.
Yeah... That gameplay kind of let's me down there, looks just like the old ones, bloom, filter, bumping AI through city courses and all.
I was very excited at the announcement of this, but this reminds me that it's Grid all right, complete with the good and bad.
I loved the inclusion of the near-complete 2006 LeMans series in Race Driver: Grid as I said in the other thread. I think this'll need to have a solid list of race tracks and race cars to sway me at this point. Especially with Simbin's GTR3 having the WEC license coming soon.
We need more motorsport series licensed games in general. Niche titles though, so I get it. But I don't like the hodge-podge of cars and tracks from different series in one.
This is a better video though, becuase its better quality. And it makes it pretty clear that its significantly better looking than previous GRID's.
It may not be Forza/GT level, but Codemasters hasn't exactly been pumping out multi million sellers recently.
And it's even the same track and car like the first race of the original. Blast from the past.
This looks more like it feels like the later Grids and not the original, which is not a good sign. And the graphics are nothing to write home about either, but it's still too early to judge I guess.

Always liked that first track so its cool that its back. I didn't really see any damage on the cars though which is disappointing, this new Grid needs the crazy damage from before.
Well, the player car hasn't properly crashed in the video.
there's a little lovetap on the SF track and you can clearly see some deformation after that. This wiill have Grid's usual damage model, guaranteed.
Can't wait - I agree the decision to brand simply as GRID as odd, at the very least that will be confusing to consumers from a marketing perspective.
But count me amongst those who were definitely asking for this. A little surprised there's so much negativity in the thread, GRID1 was awesome.

Codemasters ditched this stupid decision a long time ago. Thank God.
Since the launch of PS4, every Codemasters game aimed 60 fps and managed to deliver.
Handling seems improved, but it could fooled me if this was Grid 2 with a Reshade mod.
I installed Grid 2 last night since it's free on Steam right now, and this reminds me so much of that. I don't...get it.
I do want it to be good, since I couldn't handle how old that model felt in Grid 2. Just wish the art direction was a bit different, but maybe that is one of the pillars of GRID.

Ok.
So that's literally the same track and class race from the first game & somehow the physics look worse and the graphics only look slightly better?.... After 11 years.
