Just got to comment on this one:-

My not on this is that the game "pinches" rather than stretches as all menus and cars look better at 16:9 then they do at 4:3.

How have codemasters got this one so wrong? I'm playing this at 16:9 or 16:3 so have no issues but those at 16:10 are getting a raw deal and those at 4:3 well theres less "square" monitors now but still they have taken a step backwards in terms of their other games like DiRT and F1 which got GOLD for WS and MM.

Also how are we going to class this as it says "No MM and No WS support" for the ratings....

I notice GRID 1 isn't in the games library either, may go back and have a look at that

Grid is in the database, the original games full name is: Race Drive: GRID http://www.wsgf.org/dr/race-driver-grid

Also if you see no issues what so ever with multi-monitor support, you can override the given grade to A if there are no issues, (fairly sure I can override the grade, but I think you should be able too as well)

Oh ye, it was Race Driver I forgot about that part of it. On a side note, I cannot override the grades, must be an admin thing and no between 16:9 and Eyefinity there are no issues, I wonder how 21:9 looks

Well the option is there, but the system keeps recalculating it's grade on submit, so I can't override it, I'll bring it up with the other admin.

Be warned!

No cockpit view!
There is no "cockpit" view in GRID 2, don't know how many of you know this, I didn't notice until today there wasn't one!

but this was announced before! all reviews i read/Watched mentioned this. Because only less than 5% of all people use Cockpit view they decided to not implement this anymore. to much work for nothing. Can't wait to get home and play

i know, i didn't read much before hand as i was going to buy it anyway. I just thought i would mention if some don't know and are expecting it.

[Grizz]

so glad i did not purchase it!
i love the original..
but i would not buy this without cockpit view!~
especially for widescreen gaming...
such a shame for me...but now i know!
thanks guys!
just my opinion..i know some peeps love chase view..
but only on video games for me..
like burnout...not the awesome codemaster racing titles..
i look at these... more as simulations..not just a racing video game..
again..thanks for saving me the 44 bucks!

Just wanted to mention that if you have an auxiliary monitor with an Eyefinity setup, the game does not center the HUD, menus, videos etc... Same issue as with pretty much all other Codemaster games. Still very playable of course.

Nice, but why it's so blurry?

I'm having troubles playing this in windowed mode? Screen is flashing black..

[scavvenjahh]

DR updated, WS support graded A.

In-game Aspect Ratio setting is a bit tricky to use, in that it only really works in windowed mode; native resolution gets in the way otherwise. Another case of a game that's more trouble to the DR writer than to the average player...
So THANK YOU S7evin !
