Edge: We speak to two of the men behind the arcade version of Codemasters' Grid to find out what's changed.
Grid Arcade is not just some arcade mode of a game called Race Driver: Grid. Not quite, anyway. The kind you get as an on-disc alternative to career mode is typically about simplification, but this, a dedicated Sega cabinet built to command raucous environments, is about amplification. Codemasters’ love of attention-grabbing, time-consuming frontends has been tamed, and it takes just a few twirls of the wheel (to browse) and taps on the pedal (to select) to get a multiplayer game under way.
