The result is a game that simulator purists will surely frown upon.... (lack of view, no tuning) but everyone else will enjoy. The locations and cars look absolutely stunning. The single player is meaty and the multiplayer is absolutely worth playing.… Expand

The campaign is ok, you collect fans intsead of money but who cares its all about winning races. At first this was weird but in the long run it was better as you try to beat new records. My only problem are the menus as they are slow and awful.… Expand

I also didn't like how the game seems to focus more on 1-on-1 races a lot more than Grid 1 did. Another mild annoyance I had was that despite the game looking better than Grid 1, the replays were much more fun to watch in Grid 1, likely due to better camera placement.
   
   All in all, it's a good game, but they took a lot out of it that I miss from Grid 1, like having my own team, ease of selecting the events I wanted to be in instead of feeling like I am shoehorned into only a few race options, the ability to buy my own cars instead of either just having them given to me or having to win them in challenges, etc... The driving does feel better than in Grid 1, but after a while, I kept just thinking I'd rather just go back and play Grid 1 instead of this game, which I don't think is what the developers were going for.… Expand

   GRID 2 is both great fun at times, and awkward the rest of the time. The graphics look wonderful, especially on Ultra, everything looks smoothGRID 2 is both great fun at times, and awkward the rest of the time. The graphics look wonderful, especially on Ultra, everything looks smooth and polished. The problem is in the car handling. One minute I can take a corner and my tires will hold, and the next I'll hit a similar corner and my car will flip off the road into a wall, and not a lick of it makes sense. It's almost like some corners are designed for drifting while others won't allow it. The front wheel drive cars handle exactly the same as the rear wheel drive cars, and that just doesn't make sense at all.
   
   Another annoying feature is the commentary. If you're in 4th place, you'll hear "Try for 3rd." I mean, wow! I would have never thought of trying to advance in the pack so I could overtake 3rd! Thank you for the insight, dude!" It is utterly useless, and you can't get rid of it. So you get subjected to such gems as "some of your starts are getting a reputation as aggressive, and we don't want that." Really? We don't want to have a reputation for being aggressive? In a RACE? Who put that one in there?
   
   Ah well, so to boil it down to details:
   
   PRO:
   Beautiful graphics
   Nice selection of cars
   
   CONS:
   Blathering commentary
   Poor handling
   
   SUMMARY: If you can find the game for $10 or less, it's a fairly good deal, and you may end up enjoying the game. Any more than that, and you'll just feel like you wasted your money.… Expand

   Начала очень громко орать, пошла заставка, которую никак нельзя пропустить, или поставить на паузу, чтобы сделать звук тише.
   После окончания заставки был выбор: Синглплей или Онлайн.
   Думаю, ну выберу сингл и зайду в меню синглплеера и настройки.
   Нет же, началась еще одна заставка, которую нельзя пропустить.
   После заставки началась гонка.
   И только в гонке можно зайти в настройки и убрать звук.… Expand
