GRID is a racing game that is all about racing rather than focusing on the car. There are a total of 15 different tracks and 43 different cars. In the demo version of the game and you can participate in three different events and play with three different cars: Ford Mustang GT-R, Nissan S15 Silvia and BMW 320si in order to get the feel for the handling. The demo was available for download for the PC May 8, 2008. In only a couple weeks, the demo for GRID reached the 1 million download mark. There have been some complaints about the twitchy handling of the BMW in the demo.

GRID was developed by Codemasters, which is the same company that did Create and Race for the Nintendo DS. Although the game is released June 3, there's a demo available on the official grid site for the PC. The game is similar to Project Gotham Racing 4 in that there is no fighting between cars or trying to take them out. Instead it's a traditional racing game where you simply out race the other players.
