As I’m getting older I’m really beginning to appreciate the more arcadey racing games that use real world locations and cars because sometimes I don’t want to spend hours mastering ‘realistic’ driving physics…. I’m at a point with gaming where I just want to have fun and have things work, even if they may be unrealistic 😅

If they keep making improvements on Grid like Legends, I'll keep buying them. This game is seriously fun & it's arcadey but great fun & not too serious

Properly said these game overrated and underrated garbage 💩.

The cinematic approach with actors in the story line makes this game one of my favourites of the genre. Probably the best single player campaign so i've seen in a racing game so far.

I will probably play this for the campaign. Racing games tend to have non existent ones and while I get it, the games can be kind of boring to play after a while. I felt that with Burnout 3. Jak X is my favorite racing game campaign tbh

So the problem with the GRID series is their simcade approach. What chiefly sells an arcade racer is the visual improvement over the titles that came before, or an entirely different presentation. Because GRID can't entirely drop it's sim aspirations it features real world or real world inspired locations which means that as soon as you have 2 games on the same graphics engine you visually have the same game twice bar a few tweaks, and that's never popular. GRID Autosport was just GRID2 but a bit bigger and with some tweaks. GRID Legends is just GRID (2019) but bigger and with some tweaks. Add to that barely any marketing and you've got a flop. GRID2 however was a massive overall upgrade over the original GRID. It ended up still a worse game overall because it abandoned the more hardcore roots of the Race Driver series but a worthwhile entry because of everything new it brought to the table. GRID (2019) embraced the simcade spirit even more but since it was once again a massive update to the series it was a worthwhile entry. They need to release GRID games further apart and wait till people are hungry for a new title again. Basically what I'm saying is Legends was too little too soon. I'll get the game eventually, but I'm in exactly zero hurry.

For those who care - I wanted to mention Grid Legends has particularly good toggled 3d headphone audio support on a ps5, not alot of games do, with a pair of headphones it really jacks up the immersion fun factor. GG all

I’m hooked I just finished the season 1 story. Buying the expansion which is something I rarely do

Good review, play in the first person, turn the HUD down to the minimum and find the right controller settings and this is great simcade game. An improvement on Grid 2019

I hate open world arcade racing games, grid legends was a breath of fresh air and reminded me of the ps2 era of arcade track racing games, track racing games are so much better than these open world variants where every track layout looks the same and there are no real world locations, both need for speed and the crew have Been highly overrated and boring, codemasters are the masters of AAA track racing games

Wow.. you weren't kidding. You basically played destruction derby throughout. Good game, very unfortunate it released between Elden Ring, Forbidden West and Gran Turismo.

I've played Racedriver GRID (both PC and NDS), GRID Autosport (Switch and mobile, via Custom Edition) and now i'm keeping an eye on Legends. To me, despite the first game having the best structure and tone out of the two i played, i prefer Autosport as it is still fairly complex in some aspects, the driving model is much better and it doesn't include that piss filter that every game from the 2000s had (seriously that thing sucked so bad, the only game i know that managed to have a worse piss filter was NFS Undercover)

I own & love all the "Grid" games except this new "Legends", I really appreciate the 2019 reboot as I can drive my newer Dodge Challenger which I owned which brought it a little closer to home. I have seen several game reviews for this new one but for some odd reason just haven't picked it up yet & played it yet but your excellent profile of it here & now just changed that my friend, great exciting points throughout & most enticing commentary with terrific editing of the games best aspects!

I, too, like cartoonish arcade racing games more than realistic racing games. I would also appreciate a game that combines the two.

I almost missed this game as well. Now I have to say, I play this daily. Really good races and love the aspect of speed and variety of tracks. Great game 😎🤪🥳

Just bought the EA Racing Mega Collection on Steam. Grid Legends is one of the games in the bundle and the only one I knew nothing about. I was a bit nervous if it's a more realistic racer but your review does make me excited to try it out.

I actually love this game! even after beating the main story im still playing it more than my other games as of now

I just got a ps5 slim last week and I'd not played a racer in a while but loved Grid on the 360, many fond memories with a life long friend who sadly passed now, I remember how hard the last race at Le Mans was to win, you literally had to punt the oppo car off and then drive 2 perfect laps to win. So when I seen this Grid on PS5 I took a punt on it and wow! Its great fun! Night and day to GT7, I played that for hours at a friends mainly doing gold license test's and it bored me to death. This racing game is great fun I highly recommend it if you want racing to be fun and exhilarating!

Great game, but had problem with update, said needed updating so proceed with the 20GB+ update, work fine until the next day when for unknown reasons it started to load the base game again so i lost the update data, checked my hard disk size and it was fine, no idea why this happened

it's a great game! it really shines with a steering wheel! luv it

The story is really awful though with horrendous actors and acting 😅

2:20 6:46 7:25 Major Skill Issue 🤡

Such a fun game. Codemasters never fails me

Most people are salty that EA bought Code Masters, but it's the best Grid by far.

Yeah Grid is great and i play ACC GT etc aswell. The AI and damage is very good in Grid and your goung to have fun close racing , it actully offers alot that other racers dont have so well worth at least giving it a go when on offer.

Original Grid still is my favorite

I had fun with this game, played all that a can in the base game through EA Play, thinking about getting the deluxe upgrade

Grid Legends is so underrated, plus it's better than Grid 2019 which the AI was brutal.

Been playing this and having lots of fun. I played the original GRID on ps3 and never forgot how fun it was.

The game is good,looks good ,filings are OK but need some patch at weth(we race with slik tires 🤮🤮,)visual most see weth tires. Online, some players with same car class are inexplicable faster and so stupid, hear we races nod demolition

A burnout 3 style game with these graphics would be incredible. I can't believe ea still hasn't redone that game. I guess they are too cheap to buy the music again

Split second was a banger

Only thing I really don’t like is the way enemy racers are created so easily 😏😤😡

This would be a fun game to play with my little sister 😀🤙

Underrated? It's GARBAGE, and that's why nobody even remembers it even exists.

Ha,the grid legends game was trash,because didn't add real legend cars and storyline literally fuck trash and overall in my opinion said horrible game,just like grid 2 previous game rig the game for new player on setting difficult leve even rig more make new player life living that raw brutal truth reality hurt like hell.Truly hate game design trash ass game brutal reality truth.

Like the arcade style of handling in this game It’s easy to pick up and play a few races when you feel like racing but don’t want an overly hard and sweaty experience
