The stock car racing is extremely fun and thanks to the flashback feature, should you be banged up so much that in one hit your car becomes ‘wrecked’, just rewind and be more careful in future. Europe, the spiritual home of motorsport, features traditional circuit racing in a variety of Touring, GT and Open Wheel championships while the Japanese region features Street Racing, Drift Championships and the Pro-Tuned series. The US region is built around power and speed in the form of Stock Car racing and GT races.
There are three regions to compete in, with each region having their own characteristics. Once completed you’ll earn Rookie status and qualify to race in any region. It’s very simple and all you need to do is complete the default race provided. Every new driver has to earn the Rookie status at a Licence Qualifier. The GRID World is where you go to begin your racing career, build your own racing empire and take your team to the very top of international motorsport. Once you’ve done that you’re good to go and enter the GRID world. There are male and female names available and if yours isn’t there, you can just pick one from the nickname tab – how often do you get the chance to be called HotRod? You also have to create your very own team and team colours. One of the cool features about this is that you get to select your own audio name. The first thing you need to do in GRID is create your driver profile. Enough about the Flashback feature for now though, let’s go in-depth with GRID’s career mode. The flashback feature can only be used a certain amount of times throughout a race depending on which difficulty level you are playing the game on though, so it’s not always that easy. Once you’ve rewound back to an area that you are happy with, simply tap the ‘X’ button and within seconds your back on the track, good to go. The great thing about this as well is that it doesn’t take long to load up. It’s a great feature to have as it allows drivers to race around the circuit with no fear, knowing that if they hit a wall or take a turn too wide, they can simply rewind the last few seconds and have another bite at the cherry. This is mainly thanks to one of the best features placed into a racing simulation game: ‘Flashbacks’ – The ability to rewind and try again. In GRID you can now go flat out all the time, making the game faster, more fun and more enjoyable to play.
Well in Codemasters Race Driver: GRID, things are a little different… for the better. All that work getting into 1st place gone, in an instant. But the fear factor is always there if you spin out, or take a corner wide, then you will have to restart the race and do it all again in order to win. Your hands are a little sweaty and your car is a little banged up, but because you’re in 1st position, you’re taking each corner slowly to avoid losing first place. You’ve been driving around the same track, lap by lap, for the umpteenth time.
