The demo is out on the PSN store too. I'll try it on PS3 since I gots my G25 ^_^

This one is going to destroy this for you G25 boys, but I dont thing the gated shifter is not supported, just the tiptronic sequential. I know after I get my G25 I will be spoiled and it would almost destroy it for me.

The demo is up, btw lads. I'm downloading now. I was going to wait to try the PS3 version but I wont be getting my PS3 back for some time.

It's 795Mb.

I got mine Downloaded just in time to head out for work and take a few brakes to read about it. I heard before the demo was out the the Hshifter works but the clutch doesnt. Im wondering how it really is?

How long before you post your review Scot, I have a feeling it wont be good at all. lol

LOL, I aint sayin. So did you play the dang game yet or what. Im still at work taking my last *brake, I was hoping someone would have a comment by now lol.

Scotracer, did you see that you can win a BMW if you post a fast enough time. Then you will be invited to a party in where you will have to win a live race to get the car. I hope you could pull it off.

For Americans its the same thing only you can win the Ebay Mustang.

Scotracer · 08-05-2008, 01:55 PM

There's two reasons why I won't be winning it:

1) I don't like the handling so the chances of me being the fastest with it are slim

2) I don't want to play the demo long enough to be that good to win

I'd beg to differ, Forza 2 in my opinion is a better Sim.

But, thats just a opinion.

PS I tried this demo. If you've played Dirt, it handles like Dirt, I mean the game, of course.

I dont like the controls. Graphics were ok, damage is good. Sense of speed is there. I just feel like the cars (especially for drift mode) are too out of control.

I'll still pick it up, with time, I'll be better at the controls. Its definately worth the check out.

Have you played GT5 with the G25 setup?

Well you haven't played GT5P yet, Boosty

We had this conversation over Live chat the other day and you said you'd played GTHD...well, GT5P is a big step up from HD in all respects. It is better than Forza.

Does GRID run on the same engines as Dirt? because as boost said it feels really like Dirt, fun tho

psuedohippy · 09-05-2008, 11:43 AM

Yes, both use Ego (for breakfast? lol). The new Formula One game will use the same.

I admit Im a bit disapointed that grip racing cant keep up with sliding all over the place. In GRID, out of controll sliding/ebraking is the fastest route. Thank goodness for the fantastic damage that puts this is check a bit.

I did play the demo with two of my non racing buddies, tiger woods friends actually, and we had a total blast.

I thought Dirt used the NEON engine?
