30 fps, piss poor graphics, easy to control cars, arcadey physics..

This looks like DiRT 1.5 on the Wii.

- Rick rolling since 1966

Daz6625d ago

30fps. so every game at this is crap?

GRaphics. Looks ghoood enought to me or am i missing ssomething?

cars and physics. They made this game fun , a break from the sims . Cant we have a fun game now?

Gt fanboy?

Asurastrike6625d ago

@Daz

Not all games need 60fps. But when the standard fps for racers this gen is 60 (See GT5, Forza, PGR4)it is a major disappointment when this game can't manage it.

Also, the graphics are hardly better than DiRT.

iAmPS36625d ago

The car moves like the needle on a compass, plain lame.

GT5 FTW

"Not all games need 60fps. But when the standard fps for racers this gen is 60 (See GT5, Forza, PGR4)"

PGR4 is 30 fps.

sonarus6625d ago

i think racers need 30fps because of the intense speed. It is funny how dirt was supposed to be the "gran turismo" killer. lol funny indeed

and it looks that GRID is following the same path! Thats great man this is going to be such a fun racer. Not so much online, I can see the little kids eyes widening after seeing bumpers hanging off and flying hoods lol..

I just HOPE that they let you use a G25 wheel for the PS3 version.

And where are all the people that were hyping how epic and legendary GRID's graphics were? You know, everyone that said it trumps GT5p? Vacation?

ichimaru6625d ago

Cuz forza had 360 frames per second on thier physiscs engine, and the team put a lot of time making sure that the cr physics were on par to thier real life counter parts,. the physics were really good, and on the sim side it was an awsome racing sim, not to mention everyone can tetufy (who has played it) to it's fun factor. Dirt's physics were pretty good too

Blademask6625d ago

DIRT is better.

I'm sorry if you cant see that.

Daz6625d ago (Edited 6625d ago )

You dont do reserch do you?

FOrza 2 is aloud damge but no bending of pillers because of resons you should know.

But dirt was aloud as much damage as they can.

All legal resons m8. Thats why gt propely hanst got any, to much time to get pemission from mangerfacters for a dent lol

JOLLY16625d ago (Edited 6625d ago )

there are 360 calculation per second on the physics. The reason that the Forza team added Sebring raceway to their game is to show off the physics. Most games do their physics calculations at 60 frames per second, but Forza is 360. The reason they did that is because at 60 miles per hour (pretty slow) you travel 14' in one second. Now if you calculate that with 60 frames in that one second you travel around 3" that makes it very hard to accurately produce things like cracks in the asphalt and rumble strips. The other game developers sort of have to smooth out everything to fit in those parameters. Forza however, is calculating around every 1/30th of an inch. That is why the physics calculations are so important.

What is this game about?

Is it like Dirt?

gEnKiE6625d ago

Looking forward to this game! XD

mistertwoturbo6625d ago

Probably going to pass this one up. People were complaining GT5P had any content for $40, when it has 70 cars, 1 sports bike (CBR 600), and a F1 Car, 1280x1080p resolution @60fps, 6 tracks plus 6 reverse, plenty of events, online drift trials with leaderboards, and better physics.

So why don't folks complain that GRID has only 50 cars for a full $60.

And personally, I hate arcadey simulator racing games. It sucks as an arcade racer, and it sucks as a simulator when it comes to physics. They need to make up they're mind which one they want it to be.

Much like PGR, they're goal was to make it an arcade racer with great visuals and pretty much succeeded. As well as Forza 2 which aimed at being more of a simulator and less visuals and they succeded.

GRID = Fail

the sports bike was an april fool's joke...you do realize that?

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle24d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7723d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde30d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy31d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12530d ago (Edited 30d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7732d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga32d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199231d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga31d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman31d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger31d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box32d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion31d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7232d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7532d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit32d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14932d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7732d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
