PS3 - GRID - Codemasters Responds to GRID Complaints Codemasters has responded to irate Race Driver: GRID fans that were stripped of their hard earned ranks in the recent server-wide reset.

"Given the number of reports we've had of people abusing the ranking system to get unfair ranks, it was only fair that we did a reset," said Rich Tysoe, Codemasters' motorsports overseer, on the community forum.

"It's never an easy decision to make, and we'd rather it hadn't come to this, but changes in the patch should make gaining those ranking points back fairer.

PS3 - GRID - Codemasters not planning on adding trophies to GRID Codemasters is, sadly, the latest developer to be added to the list of those who won't be adding trophy support to their already released titles.

On the official GRID forums an administrator has posted saying that they're "currently not planning to restrospectively support PSN trophies - it;s not a trivial thing to add to a game" [sic].

Though this is disappointing, it's not too unexpected. Third party games are the least likely to be patched in. With Criterion showing their contemporaries, hopefully more will decide to rake in the goodwill of gamers by following suit.

PS3 - GRID - Worldwide PS3 releases for the week of June 1st PS3 Fanboy writes: "You've got to wonder exactly what these publishers are thinking. In America, particularly, there are a silly amount of games coming out this week. With Metal Gear Solid 4's imminent release next week, these titles may well suffer as a result. Still, at least the very small percentage of PS3 gamers who don't pick up MGS4 will have plenty to keep them busy. Weirdos. Here's the full release list:

US Games:

GRID
Kung Fu Panda
The Bourne Conspiracy
Lego Indiana Jones
Incredible Hulk

EU Games:

Lego Indiana Jones
Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit

Asian Games:

Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit
FIFA Street 3

PS3 - 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."

PS3 - GRID - Race Driver GRID Better Than Demo GRID's Executive Producer has spoken on the Codemasters forums regarding the PS3 version, and the improvements we can expect next week compared to the recent demo version.

The first improvement is that each and every frame is now v-synced, for a rock solid display with no tearing. Secondly the PS3 frame rate is 30fps, 99% of the time, which is great news.

Thirdly, there was no 'lead' platform - each version of the game had dedicated teams to get the most out of each of them - and finally the retail PS3 version has some extra performance improvements since the demo as they were tuning the game right to the last minute. In addition, the developers also have some further improvements lined up in a patch that should be out soon after release.

PS3 - 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."
