DiRT succeeded in screwing up a proud franchise: the Colin McRae rally games. Now we have GRID, the newest version of Codemasters' Race Driver series, another proud franchise which I enjoyed thanks to a wide variety of tracks and cars with believable physics. Competition is stiff on the PC for racing games: oval racers have ARCA Sim Racing, touring car fans have RACE 07, and variety comes in the form of Live for Speed and rFactor. DiRT suffered from a console-oriented design, from the mouse-free menus to the arcade physics to the lackluster multiplayer. While this may fly on the consoles (which, apparently, it did), we PC gamers need more than a simple arcade game. Of course, if it's fun, the lack of authenticity will be forgiven (see Trackmania for a stellar arcade racing game). Does GRID encounter the same pitfalls at the previous Codemasters reboot attempt?
