Played it a bit more and, once you actually get some cars that don't spin around 32 times when you press the accelerator, it's much better. Still can't really say whether I'd recommend it -- your mileage may vary (ho ho).

The most annoying thing about it is its menus, though. Every time you do something you have some self-righteous UI team jizzing in your eyes. You need to have flying graphics slamming into a board to represent how much money you earned from your sponsors (and you can have about 3286 sponsors), which place you got, which place your team got, how much money you made, how much RESPECT (aii) you earned and how many times you scratched your balls during the race. It literally takes about 10 seconds just to mash the return key and get through all those screens... infuriating.

It looks great, but in practice it makes me want to hit something...

Bought it on Steam and have been playing it for an week or so. Enjoying it much so far as i'm a big fan of cars and racing ect. It has a good balance between arcade and sim, tho it's considered an arcade game, but I have to agree to some issues defrag pointed out and some other minor things:

* Menu dosnt support mouse, have to use the keyboard all the way here

* Pressing "Enter" a good 5 times after each race gets annoying

* You cant tune your car in any way

* Sometimes it's just better to cut a corner and just go straight forward over the grass and it wont slow you down that much

That said this game IS very good and has very much to offer. I will suggest this game to any of you who think NFS is too easy and arcade'ish, but want the fun and thrill of doing highspeed racing and not beeing forced to brake down to 20mph to do a left turn.

I just uninstalled this game...

I bought it along with a racing wheel for the 360 just about a week ago. It's addictive. I can't even ride my bike anymore without making GRID associations. In fact, playing the game has improved my bicycling skills. Anyways, it's an excellent game.
