PC - Race Driver: GRID - Codemasters Has GRID Patch on the Way Codemasters has said it is busy working on a patch to stop stuttering issues in the Xbox 360 version of Race Driver: GRID. Developer boss Gavin Raeburn waded into the official forum to confirm as much, and offered a temporary solution for those of you affected.

"We're close to getting to the root of the problem and we will be including a fix and a backup workaround option (just in case) in our forthcoming patch due within the next few weeks or sooner," said Gavin "Uncle Chewy" Raeburn. "We think the issue is due to specific drive hardware, possibly with bad blocks /sectors.

"The best temporary measure is to copy your Gamertag to a memory card, remove the hard drive and run the game that way. Replays and caching will be disabled, though instant replay will still work as this caches to memory."

The Xbox 360 version appears to have the bulk of the problems, although some have reported similar issues when running the game on PC.

PC - Race Driver: GRID - The Stig celebrates Race Driver: GRID launch Boomtown reports: "Top Gear's The Stig and his race driving palls had come along to lend their support to the release of Race Driver: GRID. The drivers happily revved their engines for the assembled crowd. As you might expect it was The Stig that really caught everyone's attention with many vying to say hello to the mysterious magnesium-scented tame racing driver.

Inside the store, the drivers picked up their consoles and copies of the games - The Stig with an Xbox 360 Elite fanboys will notice - before roaring off in a slightly less than legal (but thrilling) fashion northwards along Tottenham Court Road."

PC - Race Driver: GRID - GRID demo reaches a million downloads TVGB: "I seriously can't say 'one million' out loud without at least thinking about putting my pinky finger to my lip and adding dollars to the end despite Dr. Evil's cultural relevance being pretty much gone. Thus when I read the press release announcing that Race Driver: GRID's demo had been downloaded over one million times across the 360, PS3 and PC I couldn't help but envision Dr. Evil racing in a beautifully rendered car, swerving around tracks around the world."
