This game is like V8 Supercars (Toca Racedriver). With all assists off, this game is pure adrenaline. Beautiful graphics, epic crashes, enjoyable simcade physics & phenomenal weather.

There's a lot of competition in the racing scene and Codemasters does have the F1 license so that's their perennial showpiece. They've also got a good mix of arcade and sim in the Dirt and Dirt Rally series. It's the street racing scene where you can get the most creative but obviously you're in the Forza Horizon, Gran Turismo category. Is it just me or has this game not been really promoted?

I love me some fun arcade racing and am also glad to hear the 120hz mode holds up in races. I'm planning on getting an LG C1 soon and will likely pick up GRID Legends on sale. I would also LOVE to see NFS Heat get a 60fps update (and a toggle to disable film grain). The Crew 2 is getting 60fps this summer. EA needs to get on it!

Thanks for this, I didn't realize I was playing in 120 FPS mode on my Series X until I watched this video, I'll have to switch my system settings and see how much difference I notice in the graphics playing at 60 FPS. I've played through quite a bit of the game in the 120 FPS mode and enjoyed it, found the handling via my Fanatec CWB v2.5 very good, so I'll probably keep playing in that mode, but nice to know about the option.

Excellent video and narration as usual John. GRID Legends is without question, the best racing game to come out in the last couple years IMHO. People love their Gran Turismo but this is low key the better game. It's arcadey but very fun and the car handling....much like my beloved and criminally underrated GRID 2.....is sublime, particularly with a Direct Drive FFB wheel. It's a gorgeous game and very well optimized, and has a nice long career mode that's well done. If you guys are on the fence, show Codemasters your support and BUY. THIS. GAME!!!!!

Glad I end up clicking on videos like this one. I'd never even heard of the game and didn't expect much, but wow! It's gorgeous!

I really fear for Codemasters going forward as over the past two plus decades they have made a name for themselves on making some of the most solid racing games that are a good mic of arcade and ralism. They managed to stay relevant where other British publishers from the 8-bit micro days faded away long ago or are operating on such a small scale you would be surprised they were still around.

thought you had forgotten about this one, thanks!

with some of the destruction derby like races where cars get caught up together and grinding and crashing a lot, be ready for a lot more frame rate loss than you think and is talked about here. My experience of the likes was happening with the Series X in 4K mode.

Every time I see that 365 GTB4, I just go purr. I haven't played a racing game since the PS2 days and this is really tempting.

I think I would enjoy this one more than GT7, I struggle with realistic simulators and the always online feature let me down a little bit. I don't mind if it doesn't look hyper realistic but if it feels good and looks nice then it's perfect for me.

Are you sure you have to set the PS5 to performance in the settings? For me, that's on auto and I only have to enable 120 for the mode to activate.

Damn I didn't even know this came out

So, you don't get the frozen atomic bomb blast lighting at the exit of a tunnel? GOOD.

The 120 fps mode is crazy fun in this game!

Playing this on my Xbox Series X atm since it came out on Game Pass. Looks beautiful at 120 Hz and it's surprisingly sharp. I didn't even realize it wasn't running at native 4K. When you move around your camera (left or right), the 120 Hz refresh just makes it very smooth and not headache inducing. I think it looks better than Gran Turismo 7, which I also play on the same TV.

There I was thinking that DF had completely forgotten about this excellent game like they did Psychonauts 2 and then the tech analysis video pops up! Very good, thorough analysis as always. I got the game for Xbox Series X as I had a feeling it might have some tearing so opted for the console with VRR (which the PS5 *still* lacks after 15 months on sale!). I am very happy with the game, it is a lot of fun even if it does feel very similar to GRID (2019). One complaint, other than the stupid decision to grey out the 120 Hz toggle, is that shadow draw in, which seems to be limited to mid-distance, is rather obvious and can be very distracting on trees and buildings at times as on some tracks they can suddenly pop in as if the game has realised it has forgotten to render them. Seems like a bug but it has never been fixed.

*most fun. Not everything is a superlative ya paperclip.

I love the way Codies does racing lines, where speed is indicated by marker height - once you get in down, its so easy to "drive the track", instead of "driving the car" Only just loses out to my favourite driver aid ever - the apex markers in GT7 - you don't even need braking zones or racing line, entry and exit point markers hit all the same bases

They really did a number on me with the previous Grid, so it's safe to say I won't be getting the deluxe edition of this game at launch.. No matter how good it is, I'll wait for a deep deep sale.

Just like me. I also got Grid 2019 full of anticipation at the time, because by then I had taken the series very much to my heart. Unfortunately, that was one big disappointment. But I recently played the "demo" via the Xbox Game Pass and was pleasantly surprised that the handling has improved. I will still wait for a discount, because it doesn't offer enough new features for the normal price...

This video already has more comments than the peak online of this game on Steam. I fear this might be the last game in GRID franchise, considering it's now under EA and EA already has their own arcade racing franchise.

0:58 Dirt legends? some secret info right there

That first GRID was so damn good. I'm enjoying this one but it's just not the same...maybe just nostalgia talking I dunno.

I have a soft spot in my heart for that first GRID. It still is the best one. I'm slowly warming up to 2019.

Man, I wish we could some kind of Codemasters MEGA GAME... A game with like all DiRT game tracks... And a GRiD game in the same way.... I miss the 1st GRiD, and DiRT 2...

LOD breakup and pop in takes me out of the immersion in the PS5 version of Gran Turismo 7. It has gotten worse with the first patch post launch. And they dummed down those particle effects causing fps drops in the back of the pack rain races. I haven't played Grid since 1 and 2 and absolutely had a blast in those games with the simply fun physics at the time. May find myself picking this up later in the year.

Does changing the xbox to 60hz diminish picture quality at all since it also switches back to hdmi 2.0?

I’m truly not sure what to think of this game. I love the GRID series… i’ve actually played this game via the trail for many hours and love it, but can’t help think that this is simply a full price rehash of the prior game. With upgrades really only to trackside objects and maybe reflections. So I can’t support paying $60 for a very simple upgrade. I will probably pick it up when it’s $15, but even then I have an issue. Because it is essentially supporting paying full price for an upgrade that should’ve been free for the last game. No new tracks and even one less track exacerbates this very issue. They couldn’t even make one, five or 10 new tracks? Which screams that it was rushed to simply appease investors to have something to release to make the company some extra income. Again, I love the series. But, probably won’t buy into it again until we see more tracks, more cars and a true next GEN update to the engine. Which, they should be easily able to do real time raytracing via global illumination and shadows at 60fps on a closed course racer. I’d also like to see day/night cycles and varying weather throughout each race. Which other racers are doing. This is truly the closest thing we have to Project Gotham Racing. One of my favorite racers of all time. I just hope the developer takes a year off to update the engine and add more additional content… in tracks, cars and features.

Lmao EA is not losing sleep over you not paying $60. The whole video shows its been a massive improvement from Grid 2019. And at 5:31, it shows there are new tracks. You typed an essay, because you don't like a game. 😭 Shower and touch some grass.

I have a similar feeling. I have also played the "demo". As an old fan of the Grid/Toca games, Legends simply offers me too little new to justify the price. But I honestly don't understand why Grid 2019 is praised so much in this video. That was the weakest part of the series for me.

0:57 I WISH They made a game called DIRT LEGENDS!!!!

Digital Foundry is really good at analysis good job.
