Best grid autosport background3/18/2023 There was Ind圜ar, there was Australian Supercars, all this stuff in there and that’s where these games get their name from. And only one of those games had British touring cars in and they sort of just changed it to like a melting pot of all sorts of different ideas. So we’ll have to think of a game to replace it. Up in the twenties, he’s nearly finished with those. Right.Įpisode 23 was last as of this recording, something like that. TOCA Race Driver 3, John has a long play through series on our YouTube channel, which we’ve both watched. Switch to sort of the PS2, Xbox era and that morphed into what’s called TOCA Race Driver, there were three of those games. And very, okay, were simulators around then? Probably not, but they were very, very difficult and very authentic. Okay, there were some unlockable cars, but very old fashioned games in the nineties. These were two official games of the British Touring Car Championship. With the TOCA games, TOCA Touring Cars or TOCA, you might want to pronounce it different ways. So actually starts back in sort of the PlayStation 1 era on PC as well. But just for context, we’ll rattle through here now, sort of an abbreviated history. So clearly it’s worth paying attention to now more than ever, because a big American company is behind the marketing of it. They’re in the big press conference ahead of the Battlefield game and the skate games that they were talking about and the FIFA’s and the Madden’s. But now you see your might because as the might of EA behind it. I think he does GRID 2 with like, with his community sometimes not every time, not even every week, you know, maybe just once a month or something like that. It might be GRID 2, yeah, I think it is GRID 2. Who does GRID? Not Autosport? I don’t remember which one it is. There’s a sort of medium to large sized streamer that I, that I’ve been following for a number of years here in America. It’s definitely a series that get, you know, we’re much more of a Need for Speed sort of country than we are a GRID country, which, you know, I would say is probably a fault, honestly, because objectively, it seems like, sort of at least in recent years, a little bit better of a video game, but I mean, we do, we certainly do get them over here. So I have played, I think one, I think, I can’t remember if I did play, GRID Autosport, was the one that I believe I dabbled in very, very briefly.īut it was very, very brief and yes, you’re right. I mean, how many of these GRID games have you played Justin? Which is not huge popular in America, although I’m sure there are some fans. And also a lot of the content in there was more, the legacy of the series is more about like British touring cars, for example. There are a few reasons, but I think back in the day Codemasters was very European centric with its marketing. Cause I feel like, this could be very wrong, but these games were very popular in Europe or the UK not so popular in America or maybe not even in the Australia either. I do believe not many people are fully up to speed with this. But for those who don’t know, that’s quickly run through the GRID series because there is a history and a legacy there. So we thought, okay, let’s discuss our hopes and dreams for GRID Legends. So early days we don’t know the release date. In fact, EA had a big press conference recently, and this was the first game they showed with a great detail, but we haven’t seen any full, raw gameplay yet. And the second game, or actually, the first game kind of announced maybe on the EA you could argue. Yeah, it looks like a polished EA title in a way, even though it’s by Codemasters, this is their first sort of track or second track racing game after F1 21 under EA stewardship. It seems like a lot of prep, a lot of work has gone into it. It seems like it’s had a lot of production value behind it. I know some people, in the community who are especially excited about it as well, too. Obviously it’s something that, as Social Media Manager, at Traxion I’ve certainly, you know, had my eye on it. There’s a lot of hype around a lot of chatter. And if you aren’t aware, you might’ve seen, GRID Legends trailer was announced recently, is the racing game that’s coming out in 2022, are you pumped for that Justin? Welcome to a brand new episode of the Traxion podcast, where we talk about racing games, sim racing and esports I’m Tom.
