    not bad game, but not good either. The multiplayer is really miss & match, visual is decent, and the voice is also decent

    the game that no one liked was the one I liked the most hehehe I love the artificial intelligence of this game, it makes the npc make mistakes just like you and if you are brutal With an opponent he will be against you too. I don't deny, sometimes it's very stressful, you're running a perfect race, then an idiot comes along and gets in the way

    This really is a poor game and such a shame, considering this is Codemasters. I used to love the TOCA Touring Car games. yet this release of GRID is such a poor reflection on how great their older games were.
    So, where do we start? Okay, how about every car is like Bambi on ice for starters. Can't imagine any of the licensed manufacturers would be happy with the distinct lack of any

    So, where do we start? Okay, how about every car is like Bambi on ice for starters. Can't imagine any of the licensed manufacturers would be happy with the distinct lack of any realism relating to their cars. The racing line is an utter nonsense, as it doesn't factor in car variants like FWD or RWD, which usually handle differently around corners. As for the "career" mode, it's just win race and earn money. "Make your own story" indeed, as you'll need lots of imagination pretending there's a career mode that actually does that. Hiring other team drivers is an absolute waste of time, as no matter how "good" the little stat bars claim they are, they're all utterly useless because AI drivers are terrible. Finally, contact with other cars always seems to favour the AI drivers. They can spin your car off the track with the slightest of touches, yet if I slam into one of them or try to nudge a rear corner to spin them off, they never leave the track. In summary this game is hot garbage, highlighting the utter lack of quality and imagination by supposedly leading development houses and publishers these days. There are far superior driving and racing games by indie developers, made with much more soul and effort, and at a fraction of the price.

    Annoying NPCs, slightly awkward physics, Lack of Russian language, no difference between DX11 and DX12, except lower FPS in last one

    The worst GRID game ever played. Cars are floating on the road. Worse than many other arcade games. worse than the origin of Grid and Grid 2

    The game is much better than the expert criticism suggests. In my view, it's the best game in the GRID series so far.

    Not enough content, lack of a car customization, pretty meh graphics. But colorgrading and lightning is pretty, smart ai, xbox one controller feedback feels fantastic. It was fun game to play, but far from perfect.

    Such poor gameplay design..the cars feel like that they are stuck on the ground...and on the corners they loose grip like slipping on ice in seconds.
    A slightly upgrade from autosport but nothing special as a game.
    graphics are ok, sound are ok..but you have to grind "money" in order to get cars ingame.

Adding insult to injury is the Ultimate Edition's absurd pricing, the abundance of content recycled from previous entries in the series, and the rather egotistical marketing that dubbed this game "#LikeNoOther." This game is a big budget asset flip. Expand

    Mixed feelings all along.

    The racing itself is good, the AI punishes you for mistakes, makes mistakes of their own and provides a great challenge on Very Hard difficulty. The game looks fresh, with great weather and sun effects. The cars sound good too. It's not a sim, but it doesn't pretend to be. But the content and for lack of a better word, soul, is missing. It feels rushed and

    But the content and for lack of a better word, soul, is missing. It feels rushed and unfinished. There is no real sense of progression, no real sense of being part of a team or being an aspiring young race car driver. You just go from one soulless race to the other. The cars get quicker and the races get tougher, and that's basically it. Money in this game seems to serve no purpose apart from buying new cars (which you are forced to do if you want to progress) and customization options.

    Fans of the original GRID will lament this game for having no team ownership aspect, no rivalries against other teams. Fans of Autosport will lament this game for its lack of tracks. Fans of both will lament this game for it's piss poor damage modeling.

    For now, I can't really recommend the game. Wait for a sale or the inevitable complete edition once DLC cars and tracks have all been released.

    Where are those times when we had good arcade games?

    Forget it!

    Codemasters destroyed another good series, could it be even worse? I don't want to see what they can do. Poor career, average graphics, low-res cockpits, average sounds, it's just a game for kids.

    I already refunded this poor game.

    Amazing reboot of the series. Career mode could be better though...the Ai is superb the tracks are fewer than grid motorsports and they didn't add nurburgring track which is one of my favorites such a shame. Anyway the game is pretty good overall I think it's worth it.

    Not Recommended at Full Price!
    Feels like a lazy Cash grab release!
    Grid 2019 it's a good game but isn't great. It brings back all the great driving of the original game but feels like the passion for the IP has gone. Career mode is very simple affair where you just win races in each series to unlock bigger and better competitions very little team managment going on and basic tuning

Career mode is very simple affair where you just win races in each series to unlock bigger and better competitions very little team managment going on and basic tuning options available. The damage model seems to have zero effect on the car mechanically but looks ok, a downgrade from the original! Cars feel great like the original but alot less skill required compared to other games Forza/DIrt Rally/ etc. The game seems to have a penalty system in place for bad drivers but seems a little hit and miss with regards to cutting corners. Wall riding doesn't seem to be a thing and will usually cause you to spin out/slow down. Graphics are nice but not setting any new standards. Performance was ok on my system no stuttering or crashing. There's fun to be had with Grid 2019 but ultimately falls short of being a Classic like the original. No VR support feels like a massive mistake on CM's part as i think it would work great with GRID.

    It's with real sadness that I have to say, this game is a disappointment to me.

    I loved the original Grid, and I've been a general fan of Codemasters racing games, particularly the Dirt series. When they announced a reboot of the Grid series, promising a spiritual return to the first game in the series, I had hoped for a game that just improved on what made the first game great,

    I loved the original Grid, and I've been a general fan of Codemasters racing games, particularly the Dirt series. When they announced a reboot of the Grid series, promising a spiritual return to the first game in the series, I had hoped for a game that just improved on what made the first game great, expanded on the back-then unique features such as team management, and most of all kept (and preferably improved upon) the feeling of ownership, of being a part of this team and progressing.

    That isn't there at all. Sure, the racing itself is fine. A bit more arcadey than I would personally prefer, but I can't fault Codemasters for that - they haven't made any attempt to hide what this game is, and that's fine. But that's all there is.
    Sure, you can earn money and buy cars in the most simplistic possible way, and you can choose liveries for them, but there's no real feeling of ownership.
    You can replace your co-driver, but that's all there is for the team management, and since you never talk to this driver over the radio, there's little feeling of difference. It's just a couple of stats for skill, aggression and so on that get switched out.
    You no longer hire sponsors like in the first game, nor can you design a livery that is the face of the entire team.

    The career mode is a downright embarrassment. It's just a grid list of races in different categories. Zero feeling of progression and team accomplishments.

    The new Grid reminds me of a stripped down Project Cars 1 with arcade physics. And that's not a criticism of Project Cars, because that never pretended to be anything more than racing. But Grid was supposed to be more than that. It was supposed to continue the series' legacy of a certain feeling. Ownership, companionship, team efforts, planning for races and earning new sponsors. And none of that is here. There is no content at all.

    GRID 1 Forever!!!

    As an true arcade player I have to say the game is terribly difficult on game-pad, cars slide from one side to the other. AI in the game!!! OMG!!! Is it a punishment? I also have problems with tearing. The tracks are very boring and there are few of them. Oh, and the celebration with confetti after you crossing every race is disgusting and looks very cheap. 0/10.

    It’s disheartening to see that Codemasters wasn’t even trying. On its own, new Grid is an okay arcade racing game, but it’s hard to ignore that the previous one was far better. [Issue#242, p.56]

    There’s truly a decent game here with its foundational systems that could be developed into a more well-rounded title. But as it stands this is a £45 game, it is neither fair nor warranted that this game is just okay. Codemaster’s had already promised ahead of its release that Grid (2019) would be receiving a bevy of further racetracks, cars and modes for its player base. Yet with a dwindling interest, this seems too little too late.
