That looks amazing. And so smooth.

Can't stand realistic racing games on the DS. The draw distance is usually horrible.

GRID looks amazing, on all platforms. If this has a strong online mode like the others this is going to be a must buy on the DS.

Grid becomes the DS very well. It's realistic and covers the range usually taken by PSP. Sony tends to let more realistic games on their PSP while Nintendo has more bright-colour-abstract-graphics on DS and GBA. So aside from the great graphics and smooth gameplay it's important to appear on DS. I hope Wii takes a similar approach becoming a universal console for all types of games.

It looks good and has a great feeling to it.

I find your lack of faith disturbing!

The draw distance is amazing on this.. never seen a PS1 racer drawing that far back.

Graphics pretty damn good too.

If I had a DS, I'd buy.

The guys up in Scotland at Firebrand certainly know what they're doing with DS...the trick is a custom-built engine for the system. I'm salivating at the prospect of both this and Trackmania!
