The original Race Driver: GRID didn’t exactly set the industry alight upon it’s initial launch back in 2008, but it has since built a string following thanks to be a highly quality production that offers unique racing thrills. From it’s figure-8 tracks to it’s explosive barrels, Race Driver: GRID presented an experience that would remain entirely it’s own until last year’s DiRT Showdown, which comes from the same stable. The hope is that Codemasters will replicate this formula and build on the success of Race Driver: GRID in the forthcoming sequel, but a lot has happened to the racing genre in the last five years.
There are no comments from Codemasters yet
I already have it on disc for 360 so you can still get on physical but those who didnt get on digital... you snooze you lose.
Indeed and if you are a PC gamer they were giving it away free recently so no excuse :D
Ugh, damn glad I bought that game with all the dlc when it was on sale. I almost didn't buy it. At least give us a heads up before removing the game? I can't just add to cart because I currently feel like playing the game at the time. Now I add to cart from the fear of it being d-listed without notice. Just like ACIII and TDU 2. I had Alpha Protocol on my wishlist and then that suddenly got removed silently and now it's too late!
GRID 2 is a fantastic racing title, with the first game in the series winning a BAFTA award back in 2009, and now, GRID 2 is free on Steam.
Last chance to get it, from next week it will be gone from steam store for good.
@Gwiz I'd have to assume this is due to licensing issues, since there's so many cars.
Great game, but I can only play if for 5 minutes before it crashes and I have to boot the game again. It's a widely known issue on Windows 10 with no fix and no expected update for it either.
The Humble Store is giving away free copies of GRID 2 + Bathurst & Spa Circuits DLC. The free game promotion runs from Thursday, March 14 at 1 PM Eastern until Sunday, March 17 at 1 PM Eastern (or while supplies last).
These humblebundle giveaway articles always take awhile to get approved on here, I already grabbed this game yesterday.
First free humble bundle game I've seen since IGN bought them out. They used to do it every month. Hopefully they start it again.
You can't be checking them very often then.

I recognize the high production values of the first Grid, but as a game it was flawed, mostly because the cars seemed to turn/drift on a central axis.
I have faith in Codemasters, though, and from the previews it seems Grid 2 is shaping up to a good entry in the genre.
They even consulted the trophy folks at www.ps3t.org for input on trophy design. I thought that was pretty cool.
