    My complaints aren’t much more than minor dents and scratches on another beautiful ride from video gaming’s foremost racing studio. Grid Legends’ developers put a ton of effort into Driven to Glory, and then wisely made that a preamble to a much larger, much longer playing experience elsewhere, rather than focusing players’ attention entirely on a single-use story mode. It’s a strong, tarmac-based counterpart to the Dirt series, and satisfies a wider range of competitive urges than the dedicated F1 simulation that launches every year. And the consistently exciting racing, as both spectator and competitor, that Grid Legends delivers should have every racing fan wondering why something like this can’t be found in real life, too.

    If Grid Legends takes a good step forward compared to Grid 2019, this step is unfortunately not a leap. Content-wise, Codemasters was generous with more cars, more tracks, a kind of disappointing story mode which serves as an interesting tutorial and finally an efficient, yet classic and extensive career mode that can be done in multiplayer. Unfortunately, the limited physics of the racetrack and a poorly managed AI are quite anticlimactic. Nevertheless, the signature arcade atmosphere typical of Grid’s fierce races with no holds barred remains true to itself if you are lucky enough to have a driving level that fits the game’s difficulty scale. Grid Legends is therefore mainly aimed for a casual audience searching for a fun and very accessible racing game. If you are a seasoned car racing fan, the game’s blatant flaws will quickly be the only things you notice.

If you need to know how the steering feels it's like a mix of F1 and Dirt Rally and definetely the best GRID so far, and with all assists off and hard difficulty it becomes a great simcade. You can't just push the cars without breaking in time, and if you dive into corners and brake too aggressive the car will slide out and you have to have some skills to hold it on track. Drifting races is spot on and you can really give all you got.

    Most of all it is a fun game without the frustration you get from the simracing games and if you are an experienced simracer, you can really show who's the boss because it's not that difficult to master.

    Grapchics, sound and the 1440p/120 fps mode is among the best on Xbox. Menus and all the different racing modes is similar to F1 and has a lot to offer for many hours.    … Full Review »
