GAME ON





GRID’s largest realistic measure deals with bending your body and chassis's of the car. Unlike many racing games, this one doesn’t shy back from causing you to lose races from just a single crash. The damage is authentic, and impacted by your speed and what you hit. Crash hard enough and your car might not be able to finish the race—let alone win it.

It’s not uncommon for your car to go flying after a crash, catapulted through the air like some twisted metal Heep. The feeling when you’re both fearing crashes for the damage they can do to you, but also desperately desiring to see how your car and its frame hold up this time.

With crashing being a occurring often, it’s a good thing this game has the new “flashback” feature.You only have a limited number of flashbacks per race, but they serve to mitigate well the frustration normally found in racing games. Interestingly, using flashback doesn’t feel at all like a cheat. It more like a tool devised to help players continue doing just what they’re supposed to be doing.

There are also several white knuckle Touge events, some awesome awesome awesome demolition derbies (which are awesome), and the Le Mans 24 endurance race. Whatever events you decide to compete in, placing well will earn you reputation points. Each enough and you’ll unlock the next tier of events.

Grid obviously wants to
offer the player lot of variety and it certainly succeeds. Grid is all about the fun and the excitement of the race. It’s racing with a capital ‘R’ minus the frustration. You won’t find a more fun racing game currently.Outside of the realistic crashing damage and flashbacks, fantastic graphics, and literally hours of fun,
GRID is pretty much what you’d expect from a racer.

Breaking News

It has come to the attention of this reporter that websnooper has confirm the presence of gridjunkie (aka toad loard, aka md20/20 king)on the net. It can only be suspicioned that he might try in some tribial way to slander the other writers on these blogs, that being said, it has come to our attention that he has fond memories of the eleven hundred springs crowd and pounces around like a bear with a feather on his head. While this is common behavior for under the bridge panhandlers, it is hardly the focus of the group of race gamers.
Thus we can only wonder what he has done with side kick as the reports to side wall offenses has diminished as of late, yet the holes in the local dumpsters has increased. will he ever understand the classic code of the racing crowd? (not in that jalopy of his)

This Just In

Well folks the phones just don't stop ringing. As usual the reports on grindjunkie (aka toad load,lord of the underwear,and md 20/20 king amongst others), just keep pouring in. My last caller proclaimed to have actual video footage as to the sighting of this lord/king/toad whatever. He has promised to arrive before the finish of this writing that i might be able to include such atrocities in my report. Let it be known if his side kickette was any where around, we will most likely be unable to see the proof, as she has been known to break/eat cameras also(depends on how gridjunkie has been feeding her). As i am about to finish this piece of literature up i see my evidence arriving. i will link it to the title of this article so just click on it to see for yourself.

As usual

staggering through valleys

Perhaps the stench dara smells is his own regurgitation of his latest strech of inebriation,no doubt mixed with kerosene and A fair amount of cheap mad dog 20/20. Tis A sad thing when one is so obviously envious of anothers wealth,company and vehicle, Insult my current squeeze if you must but lay off my ride!!! Sally Jean Brown can handle any three men of your stature in A single evening!! My car on the outher hand is sensitive to attacks on her speed and dexterity.
Why just the other day I blew past Road Rage Randy as he was stopped and scrapping A stringy haired hippie off the bottom of his splash pan. Passed him like he was sitting still I did!! Top that with your bucket of bolts you call A race car. Try being sober for A day. You might see the light or attempt suicide--either way you gain-------gridjunkie.

In The Absence Of

Many of you may have noticed the absence of gridjunkie (aka toad) from the vocal scene as of late. While it is true the grunting of the ritual toad lord has not been heard, it is rumored that he may have been spotted sliding south of the border with his side kick el gringette,(hope he packed 2 sides of beef).
Rumors as to their prenups have also flown around the pits, and or lilly pads as of late, however this person puts little stock in rumors(unless it involves gridjunkie).
Ahh the thought of them honeymooning in the back alleys of some tiny tejano town cultivates disturbing images, as is only suggested for the strong at stomach.
In other news, sitings of gridjunkies jalopy complete with the traditional stringers of beer can chasers off the rear bumper has been reported, and i have ceesed to find any further bite marks on my side walls.
OMG can you imagine the kids???

In the words of earl pitts
pitts off
