The last time I sat down with Codemasters to get a look at their upcoming racer, Grid 2, not much could be said about the multiplayer. I was excited about the single player campaign, which emphasized being the star of fictional Patrick Callahans World Series Racing, a sort of UFC of driving. But that excitement also made me equally apprehensive about Grid 2s multiplayer, which sounded like it would be bereft of that star quality the single player was touting. But after sitting with Codemasters again to discuss Grid 2 multiplayers at length, Im glad to say those doubts were proven wrong. Very, very wrong. Not only is Grid 2s multiplayer as much about being the star as its single player experience, Grid 2 also seems to incorporate some of the same next-gen ideas that Sony spoke about at their conference: emphasizing strong gameplay, strong mechanics, and smart driving just as much as creating a lively online community and sharing your experience with the world.
