Well previews etcetera is what got me excited in the first place, but reviews offer confirmation on the total picture as they cover the entire game as a whole whilst impressions and videos mostly just focus on certain parts of gameplay.Personally..... with all the previews, videos, updates, discipline videos and information that's already been released, I don't see what a review is really going to offer. At this stage, I'd have thought people will have made up their minds already?
Reviews can sometimes be biased based on the reviewers preference for gaming. If a reviewer who only likes football games reviews a racing game, I doubt you'd see 10/10.... same as a racing game fan.... they're more likely to review it higher.
Remember... a review is just that persons opinion.... doesn't mean it has to be yours too. I have played games that scored 4/10 and really enjoyed them..... it just depends on what you like as a gamer.
I find the best reviews are the ones you make yourself, based on information you have already received before release......
....but maybe that's just me![]()

I watched this video and it seemed like the tyre wear was a bit exaggerated. Is tyre wear speed changeable? Or does it depend on the event?
It's based on your driving style etc. The tyre wear is scaled to distance, so you won't be down to 30% tyre wera after 4 laps in a 40 minute race.
Also..... the tyre wear wasn't fully balanced in this build![]()
Is there any set way to get the cheats? I never bothered originally lolI had some real fun with that one in the first one. There is something so satisfying about driving my Lola LMP1 car alongside and R18 and gently touching it to watch it go flying all over the place.
Good times. 👍
You'd have to win the final race, or call up Codemasters to get the codes, but then you have to pay for them.
Ninja... Best unlock ever.That reminds me, maybe I should complete Grid 1, before jumping in GAS.And try out the cheats.
Whoa! Hope that's in GD:Autosport!
@anim8r_uk if possible, can you attempt getting Codemasters to put that in the game? Please say yes.That will be the true test to show that they do listen.

HA! Have we not proved that already?![]()
If something like this is in Grid Autosport then it's not for me, I didn't think it was going more towards Mario Kart than a good racing sim (and I realize it wasn't intended to be an rFactor/AC/pCARS type sim).
I'd rather they filled GA with new content and made old assets available as DLC if the alternative is to fill GA with old assets and only make the new content available through download only. The Shibuya DLC stages in DIRT 3 were remakes of content from previous games, but only really stood out because the other rallycross stages were fairly simple and ordinary.
I think the real challenge they face is in spreading themselves too thin. DIRT 3 had a real breadth of content, but very little depth. For example, Baja buggies and trucks were included, but there were just four circuits for them, so you had to keep playing the same stuff over and over again. So I think GA would be better off concentrating on two or three disciplines, rather than five. Although I do like the idea of being able to complete the game in one discipline if you wish.
A fun side-game carnage won't distract from the sim aspect of GAS.You wouldn't be obligated to use that cheat, obviously.
But doesn't it tell you something about the type of purchaser? Many claim that racing online in many games is a joke because of the wreckers, promoting/including a game feature for crashing/wrecking is attracting a type of racer that is less interested in clean racing, in my opinion.
But that's fine, I understand many enjoy arcade racing games their just not for me.
It's in the game!?HA! Have we not proved that already?![]()
"You can't go two-wide through there, you Muppet!!!!!"That guys commentary during that race!![]()
So...we had Rob Austin (BTCC driver) in the studio on Friday playing some Grid Autosport. He only went and set the fastest lap time in the Pro Drivers Challenge

If i was Matt Neal i would demand to come back and put a fresh lap in
I would like to know what times your hitting anim8r, you must have put some laps down on this challenge, you lucky 🤬![]()
Hmmm there are a lot of BTCC drivers entering your office lately![]()
