360 version of GRID hits the skids

From Gamer.tm "It seems that not all is well with the 360 version of GRID,with gamers complaining that the game repeatedly freezes during play.

The cause of the problem appears to be the 360's hard drive. So GRID's executive producer Gavin Raeburn has told the Codemasters forum, the British developer believes that "the issue is due to specific drive hardware, possibly with bad blocks/sectors."

According to Raeburn though, Codemasters is "close to getting to the root of the problem" and that "a patch will be released as soon as [Codemasters] can get it through Microsoft [certification]."

It seems that no similar issues have been reported with the PS3 or PC versions."

[LenHart]

what now

@HYDRO

POG was all over everybody trying to convince others of GRID's superiorrity on x360

In fact GRID is so superior that it freezes the x360

[Hydrolex]

OMGGGGGGG that hurts !

I thought the Xbox 360 is AWESOME but.. DAMN

I'm an Xbox 360 fan

[DarK-SilV]

Guys this is too mush for them to bear in just one week and still judgment day has not come yet
I don’t want to imagine what will happen to them

[Nadine Coyle]

hy would any body kill them self over race driver: grid. i am not getting it any way. big disapointment

[LenHart]

I love you if you are actually as pretty as the girl in your avatar

[Nadine Coyle]

dont talk to me your dirt lol(jokes, dont take nothing serious in the open zone)

[tehReaper]

Ohh Jesus.

LenHart found him a chikey.

Theres hope for stalking, sexually confused, closet drinking geeks everywhere.

[Pain]

See what happins when Devs make games with PS3 first?

XBOX 2 cant Handle a PS3 Port.

[psycho360]

Looks like -pp is lenhart/nasim/xtrempro as he replied to nadines comment to lenhart.

[pwnsause]

its what i said before, the engine that the game is running on is the Phyre engine, Sony's cross platform engine. thus its superior on the PS3 even though the game looks %99.9 identical to each other

[Elginer]

This game is running on Codemasters own NEON engine.

[pwnsause]

and what toolset was used to make the neon engine? rofl heres proof read the whole thing http://cuernavacajoven.com/...

[GutZ31]

squallsan just turned out to look like an idiot :/

[SkinBintin]

I thought it was running on the Ego engine? The same engine used for Colin McRae DIRT? Correct me if i'm wrong.

[BattleAxe]

And so it begins. lol

[AuToFiRE]

your right, it runs on ego
anywho.. *continues chuckling at 360 users with their overpriced hardware*

[heyheyhey]

wow, and to think- POG spammed my inbox trying to tell me that the 360 version of GRID would be superior

[GameDev]

360's are for kids....D

[Varsarus]

lmfao.

[Kaz Hirai]

You've managed to create a console that can both FREEZE and BURN!

12 days until Judgment Day, Nazisoft!

MWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!

[CRIMS0N_W0LF]

lol @ freeze and burn

[heyheyhey]

heh, nice one

now if it only it could cast healing spells

[DarK-SilV]

--

[belal]

didnt he say that he is gonna play upgraded version of U3 and the best version of grid ? lol hahaha pwnd again

[TheFART at XfagKings]

Yes did you call?

[Nadine Coyle]

i take it your the same person as -pp

[The Dude]

Hey hows Haze playing didn't you rate that a ten?

[CRIMS0N_W0LF]

9/10 from edge.

This game is so medicore. Go play Forza or PGR please. Do NOT buy this

Edit: Why Disagree?

[STEVIE_]

People may disagree because they have an alternative opinion than you.
Your comment was as if you said "How could anyone possibly disagree with my opinion on games."

If you were to state a true fact and then you got disagrees then THAT would be ridiculous, but not with opinions. Well done on making yourself appear intelligent.

[TheFART at XfagKings]

Well stated PGR and FM are great games. I did not like GRID demo 1 bit

[tojfs7931]

Off the DiRT engine, a medocre racing game at best...

[user858621]

Freezing And Overheat lmao hahahahahahahahaha

[Train-Traxs]

Not a failed ps3 version and a required patch. although it doesnt bother me i dnt care for this game,gta and mgs4 are keeping/gona keep me busy atm. hope the 360 get a patch quickly for those with the game.

[The Dude]

I really doubt that Grid has any issues locking up. But I would rather have Grid lockup over GTA4 locking on a ps3.

[rhood022]

@above

except GTA froze on the 360 too

[beavis4play]

i don't think the freezing issue is the fault of the hardware.(regardless of system) GTA had freeze issues on both consoles. i think it comes down to the developers. of course, i'm not qualified enough to know for sure, but every so often games have this problem. since all games don't freeze, i would say it has to be the devs of the game in question.

[Hagaf22]

but dont worry, the 360 version has better physics during crashes, according to gametrailers.... oh wait, that video was a bunch of ps3 footage....nevermind...

[STEVIE_]

I've heard it's sooo cool on the 360 that it freezes it :-|

[ps360fella]

ps3 fans u really wanna go toe to toe with xbox when it comes to games running smoothly, u know in ur heart even if u dont want to admit to it that the ps3 has had many freezing issues with many games and some games that simply dont run until patched.

Disagree all u want u know its true........... on another note u know n4g is ps3 fantard crazy when basically no xbox fans have posted in the xbox topic only ps3 fans. It really says a lot.

[digger18]

Oh come off it, last year it was non stop from the xbox fanboys and you only have to go into any PS3 thread and you will find lots of xbox fanboys talking sh*t

[heyheyhey]

that's why this news is so refreshing to us

it's always nice to get your own back

[juuken]

Oh get over yourself.

[PoSTedUP]

there aren't many freezing issues dude, dont get it twisted. yea the 360 has alot of multi-platform games that tend to run smoother, but thats because it was ported over from the 360(hooray for you) but their are "some"(not few) but some games that tend to run better on the ps3. its all up to the developer whether they make it a port or not. soon these games will be a thing in the past. there are a few games ported over from the 360 that run better on* the ps3. that just shows you that devs are getting use to the ps3 and times are changing. just remember, history repeats itself. peace.

[PoSTedUP]

i feel for you guys, even if you laughed at ps3 gta4, sh*t happens yo.

[digger18]

I dunno, they got this info from a forum. I didn't get any freezing on the demo. Is it only on the full game?

http://gamer.tm/forums/show...

Lol..one of the guys on the forum said the framerate issues spoil the game!!!

[juuken]

Lolz.
And this is supposed to be a system that has better graphics?

[juuken]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[pow3r of t3h c3ll]

the 360 obviously cant run this game properly cus it doesnt have t3h pow3r of t3h c3ll!!!

none can stop the rise of the PS3 to glory!!!

[PoSTedUP]

that actually could be the issue, im not saying it is, but it could be.
ill give you a bubble for making somewhat of a logical statement : )

[myke6699]

Seems like everyone is giving it a 9/10 while ignoring the technical flaws in the game: the frame-rate and screen tearing issue on the PS3. But the same can be said about GTA IV (with plethora of 10/10 everywhere) which coincidentally also suffers from multitiude of technical issues. It seems like with the next-gen games, we're getting the kind of problems that PC gaming had been facing all these times and patches and updates seem to be the norm. No longer can you play a game out of the box without having issues. I think reviewers instead of slapping 10/10 so liberally, should spend more time reviewing games and my suggestion is that the "rushing a review before your competition get theirs online" attitude should be replaced with a more throrough reviews that would benefit the consumers instead of the publishers.

[yanikins111]

puts this on a similar level to mgs4...

Sorry i just dont see it...

[boodybandit]

I barely notice any tearing and absolutely no frame rate issues on the PS3 demo. I did notice a tear here and there but you have to look for it and I only noticed it while watching someone else play the game. I don't notice it while I myself am playing GRID.

You want to see bad tearing play the original Moto GP. If anyone has ever played that game they will tell you what distracting tearing is all about. The city tracks on that game were like viewing the graphics being ran through a blender.

The only time video tearing bothers me is if it's a distraction while playing the game. It's not. BTW Codemasters said it won't be there at all on the final build of the game.

But why are we talking about the PS3 version when it's the 360 version that is locking up?

[myke6699]

The screen tearing (v-sync) is worst in the San Francisco race. Because the problem Codemaster admitted there was a problem in the PS3 released demo.
Don't get me wrong- my problem isn't with Codemaster, GRID or any games out there that get good reviews only to be discovered later to have inherent technical issues.
As to the MGS4; I'm more or a racer than an FPS kind of gamer so there's no reference to MGS4 since I couldn't care less. But I did buy into the GTA IV hype (although I played GTA:San Andreas) so much so that I was at the midnight sale. It's a good game but not great as the reviews suggested. But after putting about 8 hrs into the games, my PS3 would freeze at loading and caused me (and most PS3 gamers) to lose the saved game . That in my opinion wouldn't have happened had the reviewers mentioned such problem in their reviews. Instead the review was filled with high praise that in my opinion is undeserving.

[Wildarmsjecht]

MGS4 is not a FPS kthx.

As for the issues with the 360 version, there'll be a patch whenever they can figure out whats wrong.
Just hope that it really isnt an issue with a harddrive or a lack thereof, or something for those who bought it without the room or the HD period.

[DJ]

A few weeks before release, so screen tearing is about as prevalent as it is on the 360 version (i.e. almost never).

[BattleAxe]

I played the PS3 demo for GRID and I did,'t see any screen tearing or and framerate issues. Looks like a solid racing game to me.

[pp]

xbox360 version of grid will still sell more than ps3 and also the graphics look way more better than ps3 version. so far i have not had a single freezing issue with my xbox360 version

[pwnsause]

yea right, its using the phyre engine sonys cross platform engine, HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAHA HA
yea it looks way better than the PS3 version,HAHHHAHAHAHAAHHAHHAHAH A
PP just stop...

[TheFART at XfagKings]

come on X360 shouldn't buy GRID they have Forza Motorsport and PGR. Also Burnout Paradise > GRID

[Ali_The_Brit]

1. it does not look any better that is just ones opinion
2. you fail
3. why in the name of god does it matter which version sells more? does selling more make your version any better? with the freezing issues?
4. you probably dont even own the game, you apperntly say you own any game that you comment on and have now had TWO PS3's and sold them both for elites.

[Xlll]

"also the graphics look way more better than ps3 version"
Yes you'll have a lot of time to look them over 1 frame at a time thanks to 360's power of freezing.

[Dacapn]

Of course it'll sell more on the 360. Why would PS3 owners downgrade and buy Grid when there's Gran Turismo?

We don't have to settle :D

[pwnsause]

a;right since im back here,
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAASHAHHAHAHAHAH
HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
HAHAHHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAAHAHHAHAH
guess whos getting the freezes now, sucks to be an xbot this year

[juuken]

PoG, you're a moron.
If it's so *superior*, then why are there freezes? Something that's *superior* should be perfect enough for anyone to play. Hell, IT EVEN MESSES WITH THE GAMEPLAY!

Are you gonna cry xbaby? I see them tears, I see them already!

(To pwnsauce: Not directed to you)

[power of Green]

No proof?.

PS3 version doesn't match the 360 version graphically and the DualShock is not made for more complex input like whats needed for this game(anolog).

The reviwers couldn't review the 360 game because it froze on them ;)

[TheFART at XfagKings]

my dear friend why don't you see the light too?

[pow3r of t3h c3ll]

the usual crap spews from your mouth. You would be a great replacement for bill o'reilly when he retires due to his great ability to spin absolutely anything in his "no spin zone". Ironic since you support a democrat and also the most evil corporation on earth(M$), something that a democrat should also be against.

Remove that picture of obama and stop disgracing his name u fool!!!

[digger18]

Stop talking sh*t POG. The PS3 version looks slightly better as I have both demos running (Grid uses Sonys phyre engine). Plus I've started to see more and more that the 360 version suffers from massive frame drops.

When will you learn that you can't compare PS3 and 360 games, by looking at internet videos and stills, they never look like that on a good HDTV.

ummm I thought the Dualshock was analog???

Edit@ Varsarus

Quaz said NG2 is 585p? Damn and the game still has framerate problems. 1080p and 60fps for NGS on the PS3 ;)

I just looked at the Screen shots on that site Varsarus, the game looks like it needs some AA too.

[Varsarus]

The 360 version looks like a Barney Rubble cartoon from the Flintstones.

The 360 is probably using bloom effects instead of enabling true HDR, that's why you see people say the 360 version on some multiplatform games are very bright, bloom effects is kinda like Fake HDR in other words.

EDIT:

and it seems that Quaz says that NG2 is 585p

http://forum.beyond3d.com/s...

@digger18

Yeah lol, we seem to see the limitations of the 360 :P

but I wouldn't fully confirm that NGS is 1080p, it's been said it's 720p native, if you have the game and have a HDTV, try and deselect it on XMB setting and see what happens, hopefully it will be 1080p :D

[Alexander Roy]

*wipes tears away*

I remeber you just saying that GRID is superior on XBox360... Looks like Karma bit you in the ass.

*dies of laughter*

[pwnsause]

suffering from teh spins lately POG? remember that Codemasters devs said that their engine is the same engine they used in Dirt? Remember when Sony confirmed that the engine that was used in Dirt was the Phyre engine, SOnys cross Platform engine? ROFL, the dualshock 3 is not built for racing games, although the definitive racing game is on PS3 which is Gran Turismo 5, the real driving simulator? welcome to the no spin zone POG.

[power of Green]

You guys are like crying wemen that has been told something to help get over the pain.

The dev said the 360 version was superior the Demo proved it and we'll see soon enough if the dev saying the 360 retail version is only 1% better now that they've supposedly worked out the PS3 issues soon enough(probably still has the differences in the retail versions the demo had but they need to sell copies using that PR stunt to please PS3 fanboys).

You're using this rumor as a way to offset the PS3 version being inferior(comfort yourselfs). lol.

The amount of trolling only proves this.

[Alexander Roy]

BRB, gonna order a shirt that says:

"DualShock is not made for more complex input"

Best line I ever read here.

Can you spell "PWND", power of Green? Just FYI, every button on the PS3 controller is analog.

[power of Green]

Not only is the trolling proving you are in here ass hurt you got the inferior version; the rabid malice you nuts carry around waiting to vent on 360 fans is also proof you're using this as a way to cope with game after game being inferior on PS3.

How will you play this game on PS3 anyways?, its control sceme is way too advanced for the Dualshock controller. How do PS3 fans play this game with inferior anolog sticks and inferior shape and anolog triggers when the core gameplay in GRID depends on the pressure sensitive anolog triggers?.

[juuken]

*falls over laughing again*

Please...stop grasping at straws PoG. You're embarrassing yourself.

[pwnsause]

wait wait, now you jumped from graphics to control scheme after i showed proof that its superior on the PS3, your falling for the ultimate trap POG, the dualshock was made for racing. this benefits every other genre as well because the controls are tight. HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH omfg , i cant stop laughing, go cry POG, cry HHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH AHHAHAHAHAHA
HHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHA
HHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAH A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAH A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAH A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHH A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHH A HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHH A HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHH A HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA H HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA H HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA H HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA H HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA H AHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA H AHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA H AHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA H AHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA H AHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA H AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA H AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA H AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA H AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA H AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA H AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA H AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA H AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA H AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA H AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH H AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH H AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH H AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH H AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH A HHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH A HHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH A HHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH A HHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH A HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH A HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH A HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAH A HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAH A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAH A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAH A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHH A HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHH A HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHH A HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHH A HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA H HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA H HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA H HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA H HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA H AHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA H AHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA H AHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA H AHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA H AHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA H AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA HHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA H AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA H AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA H AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA H AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA H AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH H AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH H AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH A HHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH AHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH A

[Xlll]

@PoG the only reason 360 has analog sticks it thanks to Sony bring them out with PSX. DualShock is by far the best setup for consoles. Take a look at the 360 controller besides the sh!tty D pad, it is starting to shape its self more and more like then Dualshock. I love at how sad you are. Oh enjoy watching those races one frame at a time.

[juuken]

Xlll, now that you mentioned the 360 controller, I now remembered the reason why I hated it. I used it at an anime convention for Naruto and I could not stand the way that bulky piece of sh*t felt in my hands. I prefer the Playstation control better.

[pwnsause]

you see guys the xbox 360 controller was built for the First person shooter, and the over the shoulder 3rd person shooter thus why Halo and Gears work excellent with the controller, but after that, its sh**. to hear that sony is developing the so called "transformer" controller sounds awesome btw

[CViper]

Ha.

[LJWooly]

Both :(

[pwnsause]

BTW if anyone wants proof that it runs on the phyre engine here http://cuernavacajoven.com/...

GG pog HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA you want proof you got it, guys you know what to do, take his bubbles..

[Alexander Roy]

The word that describes how much I laugh right now is yet to be created.
This is so great.

GRID superior on XBox360... epic LOL.

[Alexander Roy]

So now you not only you get a RRoD, but there also is a chance of the game locking up on your console? Funny, the one thing is called freezing, the RRoD is caused by - mostly - overheating.
Talk about irony.

EDIT: Sorry Kaz, haven't seen your comment before, didn't mean to steal your joke.

[DarK-SilV]

I think MS should release a book called How to Snap out of Depression and give it to xbots, soon they will need it

[eagle21]

PWNED PWNED PWNED and PWNED again...... :(

sorrry.... :)

Go PS3!

[tatotiburon]

omg it's freeze like the GTAIV PS3 VERSION??

[Xlll]

More like freezing in the way your console does when those red lights come on.

[testerg35]

"If it's so *superior*, then why are there freezes? Something that's *superior* should be perfect enough for anyone to play. Hell, IT EVEN MESSES WITH THE GAMEPLAY!"

Ummm... you guys were claiming that GTA4 was superior on the PS3 and that was considering that the PS3 was the one with that major problems.

[juuken]

Um...the PS3 didn't have *major* problems. It had a few minor issues, and it wasn't from the console itself mind you. And we are not talking about that overhyped game. We're talking about Grid. Grid as in showing the 360's limitations.

[testerg35]

It wouldn't load that game and would also freeze for some other people! Funny how GTA4 is now overhyped... lol.

And the 360 is showing its limitations because of Grid? Did you even read the article. It has a compatibilty problem with a certain version of the hdd.

[SpecialSauce]

ps3 version was compared to the 360 version on game trailers and the ps3 version was superior in both gameplay and graphics. plus ps3 controller better u dont know wut ur talking about.

[yanikins111]

do the cars still pivot on a center axis? Ruined dirt Imo.

[GameDev]

expect the MS smear campaign against the PS3 to last as long as the 360 could keep up with it. THAT DAY IS NOW OVER and xbots are exposed for the fanboys they are.

HOW DARE YOU TRY TO MUSCLE OUT A REAL GAME COMPANY LIKE SONY JUST SO YOU CAN PUSH YOUR INFERIOR CRAP HARDWARE, OVERPRICED ONLINE SERVICE, AND TITLES THAT LOOK LIKE BEEFED UP LAST GEN GRAPHICS TO BOOT.

STICK THAT RROD MACHINE WHERE THE SUN DONT SHINE MR GATES.

[juuken]

Hey, we have to feel kinda sorry for them. Once Sony gets those games rollin' on PSN and Home...MS is gonna get crushed like a soda can.

[PirateThom]

It's funny, this is probably as bad as the GTA freezing issue on PS3 (WHICH WAS VIRTUAL NON-EXISTANT ANYWAY), but won't but anywhere near as publicised.

[xtreampro]

how is this new, everything on the BLOW-UP-BOX crashes, freezes, burns and blows up this is what MS built the console to do, its a SCAM to earn some $$$(and a plan to destroy all humanity lol!), sony invest in and make real hardware not some piece of sh1t that came out Billy's ASS! the CELL is the 'NEW' and 'BEYOND' the MicroChip is the 'LOST' and 'FORGOTTEN'. MS should label the Xbox360 as a Kitchen utensil, it fries, heats and cooks your food, it can even be used to nuke another country LOL!!....'!WARNING! nuke function not for cooking only burning and destroying'

[GameDev]

I think we know who the admins side with on this, there was NOTHING offensive about my post

[ilkercruiser]

But the game is a complete garbage!
Cars physics are officially a bullsheet. Cars are going like they are not belong to roads. Act like rally cars. Moving CANS!!!
Not enough cars.

AND THEN
* ejects the game
* inserts PGR 4 and ROCKS!

[tojfs7931]

Need For Speed: prostreet even with that annoying announcer than Grid.

[shysun]

It happens but the game sucks any way. I'll just keep playing GTp and I'm sure 360 owners will keep playing Forza ectect...

[n00bPwner]

WTF is Grid?

You know what's funny? GTA4 on PS3 runs in SD with no AA and a low framerate, LOL. Now THAT'S what I call funny.

[level 360]

My hopes are'nt very high on this game especially the physics on the "demo" was a bit of a let down, fingers crosed though that they make a few tweaks to fix this issue and make it a little bit better for the actual game release., but am still buying it just because of the great line-up of cars and a few tracks the developer has put in.
Plus I want to try my G25 steering wheel, not the XBox 360 version anyways.

[reccodog]

Man! The Corrupted Gametrailers.com Video comparing the two versions was wrong??? NOOOOO. /sarcasm

They were right about one thing though, That would be the Awesome Crashes! LOL!

I don't regret a thing. ;-)

[AllseeingEye]

The in car driving view is terrible. It felt very strange. It handled really glitchy compaired to GT's. I cant go back to that arcady...crappy driving once I've played GT

[SkinBintin]

GT Really isn't that great. Yeah, I admit, it looks stunning in most parts. But the handling physics suck. The cars slide in a rather unrealistic manner and the way the car behaves when running off the track onto the grass is far from simulation. Forza 2's physics model is far better than GTp but even it's not what I'd call a simulation. Neither really handle in a truly realistic manner. GTR2 on the PC feels more realistic to me.

Personally, I really enjoyed GRID demo. I didn't expect a simulation, so wasn't bummed out when I didn't get it. I got exactly what I was hopeing for. An arcadey game with a serious feel and impressive crash physics and graphics. Couldn't ask for more really.

[AuToFiRE]

you cant say what feels real and what doesnt because you havent driven the cars in real life, GT has amazing and realistic physics. ive driven miatas and corvettes, jags and corollas, they are pretty much the exact same handling(all these cars are easily obtainable where i live, the capita income is the highest here in ontario if not canada)

[Kain81]

Its melt in the Mouth not in the Pants (360-version)
HAHAHAHAHA cough...Cough HAHAHAHAAA

[gta_cb]

im not even going to bother with this game, i saw some in game footage and thought it looked sh!t but thats just my opinion, obviously some of you guys like the game so at least there bringing a patch out for it

[thereapersson]

I've been spending too much time with GT5:Prologue to even care about other racing games at the moment. The only other racing game I am looking forward to is Wipeout HD, and maybe to a lesser extent Fatal Inertia EX (because i'm a huge futuristic racing game fan). I think if I was to play a racing game that was non-sim but still retained aspects of real-life racing, I would play the PGR games. PGR 4 is an awesome game, even moreso because they included bikes (Ducati FTW!).

I played the GRID demo and the controls felt too loose and slippery, even though the game at least looked good.

[ICUP]

LAWL.

[bootsielon]

Edge said it is better than MGS4! LOLOLOLOLOLOL

I don't know who I'm laughing harder at, the stupid press, or the xbox fanboys that bother with PS3 game issues when they don't even own one.

[Martini]

Has the thought of Grid being compared to other racing games instead to MGS4 ever crossed your little brain ?

[PJ]

Give it a rest boot you're giving more than me a headache with all that fanboy nonsense!!! If you not going to post something constructive get back to the OPEN ZONE -->

[psycho360]

I'm getting bored of n4g comment sections nothing but bunch of idiots raving and ranting over whose game is better or whose console is better. Almost each and every topic turns into flamewar even if the topic doesnt even have to do anything with consoles. I hv started skimming through the comment section and only read couple of posts.

[LTC]

I dont think anyone really gives a sh!t mate.

[psnDevistator356]

B!tches!!!

[Venomous_1]

Good as an Arcade racer thats it.
