Comparing a next-gen game to a current-gen. Looks like you've made a great point, man.

Game dev interview from gametrailers

http://www.gametrailers.com/videos/g...oper-interview

Based on their research prior to GRID 2's release they stated that only 5% of their fanbase used cockpit which is why they cut it out. Interesting to see it make a return now..lol (never should have been cut out). TracerB has a point with the screen comparison though. GRID 1 had a great cockpit view and ever since PGR3 dropped it's a priority that any racer I buy have a good cockpit view...Welcome back.

How does he have a point? The game is coming to next-gen: It's coming on PC's. The first GRID had also a cockpit cam and superb graphics.Wasn't it on PS3/X360?
In addition, dozens of games have been released with HD textures on PC. After all if the game gets a release on next-gen consoles in the future the porting will be easier as the architecture is similar now with PC.

It isn't coming to next gen consoles and I already posted why in this thread.

Awesome video! At long last, it appears the current-gen successor to TOCA 3 is upon us

Re: GRID Autosport Announced, Ships June 24th on PC, 360 & PS3

Bought this early this morning off XBox Live... it is everything I wanted and more. The racing is intense, challenging, and the handling is realistic enough to make give it life! I'm not obsessing over the blurry cockpits like a lot of folks are because honestly, once the car starts rolling, I don't pay attention to the lack of detail and sharpness in the cockpit. There's enough there to give me a sense of my vehicle, and where my space is relative to those around me.

This game truly does finally feel like the next-gen (although it's now current-gen) incarnation of TOCA 3, minus some of the cutie-pie vehicles... no riding lawn mower races here. But dayum.... this game is an absolute blast to race and drive with my Fanatec GT2. Oh, and the online racing is solid also. I'm shickled titless with this game

I was hoping this game would be reminiscent of the toca series. Those games were excellent. I may have to grab this even though Im fully involved in Moto GP 14 right now.
