#CAR LIST RACE DRIVER GRID PS3#

As you win races, you'll be able to hire a teammate, create your own unique team identity and build up a small but focused stable of cars. You start off as a rookie drive for hire in America, Europe or Japan. It's an attempt to both differentiate the brand as authentic and broaden its appeal to multiple markets.Ĭodemasters describes Grid as a racing game in which you build a career in what's supposed to feel like a persistent worldwide racing realm. There are cars galore, but you're not trying to catch 'em all. It has personalization, but not so much that it detracts from the core racing elements. It's hardcore, but it's not an uptight sim. Grid is being positioned on a different band of the racing spectrum. The latter, due in 2008, is being touted as the king of all racing sims, appealing to die-hard digital gearheads. The former, which owned the hardcore racing space in 2007, is a car collection fest with a deep livery creation system. Although they don't name names, part of the Codies' marketing pitch for Grid includes a shot across the grill of the developers of Forza Motorsport 2 and Grand Turismo 5. We recently sat down with Codies to view a demo of Grid, the latest project in the works by the same team that developed DiRT. MaContinuing a trend that started with its 2007 release of DiRT, Codemasters' next racing effort shies away from both strict simulation and broad customization, a direction that places the emphasis on what the company feels the genre has been lacking of late: having fun with race cars.

Race Driver: Grid is being developed for PC, PS3 and XBOX360 and is planned for the 2nd quarter of 2008. Japanese cities provide the opportunity to race in neon-lighted streets. In the cities of Detroit, Washington DC and San Francisco there are street races. Gamers can race on official European circuits in cars made by Aston Martin, Koenigsegg, Pagani and many more. Race Driver Grid will use the Colin McRae: DiRT engine with an increased damage model: 'Damage as small as screws of the car that stay on the track, thus influencing the gameplay.' Fulton also said that there's no place for designing race outfits and collecting cars. It's a complete turnover of the RD-series and is focused on what's going on between the starting grid and the finish, according to Ralph Fulton (Head Games Design at Codemasters). Codemasters has released the first images of Race Driver: Grid (Formerly known as Race Drive One).
