Grid - 9 Really?!

I thought the demo was horrible but I guess they thought the full version must have been really good. Anyone know what they gave games like Forza, Dirt, GT4, Prologue?

I'm not gonna get upset about the GRID scores again. I mean even despite the rather objective concern that it lacks in content (just about 40 cars, seriously...) and the fact that the cars don't respond as you'd expect them to and in general don't give any feedback to the driver mags seem to give it 9's.

The top of the pinacle is that some magasines refer to the game as a sim, once you turn of the driving aids. I wonder if these idiots ever drove a real car...

Yeah, something is totally wrong with reviews and GRID..........they just make no sense, and "sim" comments make them even less believable.

Lol, I know how you feel, I beginning to think that demo I played was just an illusion or a bad nightmare because I just cant understand how such a game could get these reviews!?

Are people really that blinded by graphics or has the game really improved massively over the initial demo?

Mario Kart for Wii isn't that good, even with scores at places like IGN and Gamespot
It's a really unbalanced game
I'm surprised Famitsu scored it so high
