    I am disappointed with the AI, as it seems that the other drivers are there just to annoy. They have no interest in winning the race at all. Once you create an nemesis it can follow you through the whole race, otherwise it stays in the background and doesn't even try to win.

    The game is repetitive and GRID quickly turns into GRI(N)D.

    After the absolutely shocking state of Gran Turismo 7. I’m glad I’ve bought this game.

    Ever think you'd see the day when, given a choice between two racing games, you'd pick the one without the aggressive microtransactions

One good thing is Code masters have removed the STUPID distance driven trophy like in previous games of Grid/Dirt so Trophies achievable. All in all I'm enjoying it still and I'm about 40hrs in time wise. Looking like a 100hr Racer for the Platinum I think but I don`t mind that as the racing is fun, smooth and easy to pick up.… Expand

    Bad-
    The soundtrack only plays in story mode and that feels like something that needs to be patched. The "story" feels pointless and just something to market the game. The progression is a bit slow and can feel unrewarding at times.

    Thoughts-
    GRID Legends will almost certainly bring a smile to the face of any fan of the series as it mostly feels like an improvement over the already great game from 2019. The sheer amount of tracks, vehicle types with their own handling to master, and customization options are enough to make it a worthy successor to its predecessor. But the bonuses of the nemesis system returning, the outstanding soundtrack, and the flexible cross-play online functionality make it a great racing game in a more macro sense, too. While it misses an opportunity to really connect with a more original story mode and fails to fully leverage some of its more unique characteristics, it still provides a rewarding and adaptable racing game that burns up the track in the areas that matter most.    … Expand

    Much better than the first one, in every aspect. Great graphics, mostly arcade gameplay, career, online. It's not a day one buy and that's the main reason that the sales are so low, but now it worths a try.

    I'm actually having a blast with this. Got for free on PS plus. My favorite 2 racers are iRacing and Wreckfest. This is like a middle ground. Definitely more like wreckfest but with a little more substance to the controls and many different vehicles. Recommend for race fans!

La parte della storia poteva essere realizzata meglio secondo me, a lungo andare è risultato ripetitivo avere sempre questi spezzoni di video tra una gara e l’altra, dove il più delle volte ho fatto fatica a capire il racconto della storia. Tutto sommato però è un titolo di corse che bisogna avere se vi piace questo genere. Io personalmente mi sono divertita molto e ci passerò ancora molto tempo, soprattutto per giocare in multiplayer e sfidarmi con gli amici! Ottimo lavoro!… Expand

    A very big disappointment from Codemasters, who created very nice racing games in the past. It's a bumper cars simulator, but that's bad too. Physics are ridiculous, AI drivers the worst, only recommended players with the storngest nervous system and masochistic habits.

AI is weak, as cars spin out randomly to fake them making mistakes, even though you can't spin out like that even if you try. Couldn't care less about the team-mate mechanic. I race for me. But one thing has made me simply stop playing... the fact that in career mode, even after winning an event, you cannot continue to the final event in the series until you have arbitrarily clocked up enough miles in a certain car. Why? WHY??? If you want to force me to race more, just give me extra mandatory races. This is so easily accomplished in a racing game. You can even create your own races, so they should have just added more of those. But noooo... they FORCE you to replay events you've already won, or drive the car around in multiplayer, just to clock in a certain number of set miles. For no reason. This is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen in a game. What's worse, the miles clocked in your first playthrough of an event don't even count. Nope. You HAVE to race it again, or race the car elsewhere, and only after X amount of miles, THEN you can progress to an event. It's like saying that in a platform game, you can complete a level, but have to play it again just to reach a certain number of footsteps, and only then can you play the next level. So ridiculous it makes me want to throw the game in the toilet. I got it for free. Still got ripped off. Respect our time. Every other racing game I've ever played does progression in a better way than this. Ridiculous.… Expand

    Classic EA tactics. Make it's own studio fail to close it and cut costs whenever possible. They did the same to Respawn when they launched Titanfall 2 the same day as Battlefield 1.

    Such a fun game that is easy to pick up and play! I found the story mode interesting to follow and it serves as a great way to introduce the player to the game.

Physics are definitely that of an arcade game, which makes it fun to throw cars around knowing they will stick 99% of the time. The only downfall is that I would like to see the game have fuel and tyre wear and working pit stops like the Race Driver 3 game had before they moved in the Grid direction.… Expand

    A far superior sequel to 2019's disappointing GRID Reboot, GRID: Legends improves the driving experience by stuffing itself with races and a story mode, although it can be weighed down by a persistent grind that may put off dedicated petrol-heads.

    Legends ist leider nur noch ein fader Abklatsch des einst so großartigen DTM Race Driver.
    Schon Grid konnte nicht überzeugen. Und Legends ist im Grunde das gleiche Spiel, es wurden nur mehr Strecken und mehr Fahrzeuge … oh! und das Story-Kasperltheater wurde hinzugefügt. Und viel Gesabbel. Zum Glück kann man die Karriere auch großes Gedöns spielen.
    Aber… AAABER: man muß immer online sein, da steht dann sogar, daß die Privatsphäre ausgeschaltet ist. Subba. Und ohne Datensammelerklärung geht’s auch nicht.
    Dann wäre da noch der völlig unausgegorene Schwierigkeitsgrad, den sie ebenfalls aus dem Vorgänger importiert haben.
    Erst spielte ich auch leicht. Das war win Rennmodus für Vorschüler.
    Dann auf MITTEL… Ich habe jedes Rennen mit 8 Sekunden Vorsprung gewonnen und war bereits in der 1. Runde auf Platz 1.
    Also stellte ich auf SCHWER.
    Ergebnis: dasselbe, nur daß ich jetz mit 3 Sekunden Vorsprung ins Ziel komme und die Ideallinie nur noch in den Kurven angezeigt wird.
    Stelle ich die KI aber auf EXPERTE, dann fahre ich plötzlich mit einem Gogomobil hinterher, denn es fahren nicht etwa die Gegner schneller, SONDERN MEIN AUTO LANGSAMER. Und zwar spürbar! Erreiche ich auf SCHWER Rundenzeiten von 0:58, sind es auf EXPERTE plötzlich nur noch 1:20.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Grid is a racing game that sits somewhere in the middle between arcade and sim racing games. It has a short story mode which was good enough to entertain. The cutscenes are done by real actors and I think the people who were cast did a good job and seemed like they enjoyed themselves. There is also a career mode which is basically a single-player mode where you compete in disciplines with various types of cars. Difficulty can be tweaked to personal preferences although I found some races to be much more difficult than others, implying AI is more suited to a certain type of race. A solid game that will fly under the radar for many.… Expand

    Looks like a last gen PS4/X1 game visually. The controls are responsive, but not at all accurate. Cars do not respond at all like real cars and as a result there is no drama/wow factor in playing this game. A poor choice for a racing game with much better options available. Not at all recommended.

    Graphically, the game doesn't do too poorly, although a comparison with last year's Forza Horizon 5 wouldn't make it a winner. Grid is more thrilling, can be pleasantly fresh thanks to the different types of races like elimination, and even if it doesn't use DualSense as well as Gran Turismo, it's still a solid racing game that is sure to entertain with its variety of cars, tracks, and well-handled multiplayer.

    If you are a GRID fan and want to have lots of fun with the newest entry of the series, GRID Legends is a nice addition to your library. But if you are looking for a more realistic approach instead of an arcade one, maybe you should probably look elsewhere.

    Grid Legends is a distinguished racing game, specially by its story in the "documentary" style - one of the best I've seen in games of the genre - despite being cliché and leaving the player in the background. This is a great racing game. It's a shame it was "squeezed" into a season with many equally excellent games vying for attention. Going head to head against Forza Horizon 5 and Gran Turismo 7 isn't easy, but Grid Legends brings its own identity and shows that the genre has much more to offer.
