    Sorry Codi, this one disappointed me. The handing model is different in a good way, the racing action is great, and the nemesis system is a neat idea. However, I can't help but feel disappointed by the lack of features compared to previous games in the Grid series. Because of this, I feel that I did not get my $80 worth (yes, I bought the ultimate edition), and this is probably the mostSorry Codi, this one disappointed me.

I hope that the upcoming DLC will help flesh out the game more, but as it stands, GRID 2019 does not live up to the hype. Expand

    As a game, GRID does manage to at least challenge it's competitors with a solid, intriguing career mode and a decent enough car list (although more would benefit the game) However, compared to other GRID titles, it seems to lack much character and individuality.

It's not exactly revolutionary in the current gaming world. I'm not just talking about graphics, but also the handling and overall physics model is rather peculiar on the higher tier cars.

    Sure, the track list is also decent, but if you want a track racer, preferably pick up either Forza Motorsport 6/7, or if you want maximum realsim, Project Cars 2. Both these games are older, but have a better physics model, wider car variety and tracks. And for a game like this, those are important factors.

    Boring, there shouldn't be so many cars at once on most tracks since it makes driving awful and cramped.

    Pretty good graphics, 60 FPS on XsX and not bad driving. Perfect for Xbox Game Pass.

    Not the best racing game going around in 2021 but it does deliver on the ridge racer driving games of yesteryear , great side ways action around corners. My main complaint would be that when you make contact with another car its like its made with concrete , but when you get bumped its like you are made of a tin can.

    Saw this on gamepass and wanted to give it a try as never played a grid game before. Controls were not easy and had to lower my difficulty a bit. Average gameplay.

    It's not often a racing game comes along and hits the sweet spot between simulation and arcade, and yet that is exactly the balance that the developer haσ hit with GRID. Fantastic, speedy chaotic, gameplay, supported by some great visual and sound design, giving racing fans of all levels and abilities another great title this year worth diving into with gusto. Totally recommended to genre aficionados, especially after the inevitable split-screen update.

    It does a lot of things very well, but it’s hard not to feel like it’s missing a spark, a wow factor or some sort of true personality. As it stands, I don’t see it being something that people will continually go back to, despite its quality mechanics and beautiful visuals. It’s simply a bit too sterile. That doesn’t mean that it isn’t fun while it lasts, though, or that it isn't rather well made.

    Grid is a decent reboot. Sure, it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles that some may expect and the number of tracks are a bit lackluster, but what it is missing is made up for with great handling cars and a fun race gameplay. People looking for a good racer have found one here even with the issues it may have.
