on the official website says it will be announced this year.
Race Driver: GRIDâ„¢ Is all about the race- that period from lights to flag; full of tension, pressure, noise, and action.

Race Driver: GRID will take players to beautifully realised and dramatic race locations over three continents to compete in an unprecedented variety of racing events. Packed with the most powerful race cars – new and classic, circuit and drift – players will compete to conquer the most prestigious official race tracks and championships and then go beyond to compete in challenging city-based competitions, through to road events and urban street races.

In Europe, race gamers will compete on the greatest official tracks in prestige Marques including Aston Martin, Koenigsegg and Pagani. Iconic cities across the U.S. – including San Francisco, Washington DC and Detroit and each with their own atmosphere and events – play hosts to diverse street races. Here, high-performance V8 muscle cars set the pace in aggressive closely fought pack competitions.

In the Far East, Japanese racing culture sets the tone where night races, including Drift racing, take drivers through neon illuminated cities and to outlying mountain roads. There is also the opportunity to compete in races that operate on the fringes of legality in the back streets and industrial areas of Yokohama.

Race Driver: GRID is coming mid 2008 for the Xbox®360, PLAYSTATION®3 system and Games for Windows®.

Nice-looking game. At least it has styling queues from competitive Gran Turismo-class race cars.

Good on ya Codies, that's all I can say. I used to play TOCA on PSOne all the time, it was really fun, hopefully this will be way better.

The handling from ToCA 3 was a bit hard for me played with keyboard,but I think with a wheel it's pretty cool...

Played the first one for a while, pretty challenging for a PSX game!!

The handling was a bit dodgy from memory, but other than that, great game.

Cool, I see the Orange Yuke's Impreza! Really bright to add all these drifters, NFS should do that!
Maybe some more will come.. (Apexi RX-7, Discount Tires IS350, Falken Silvia etc etc etc)
