GRID Autosport Poker Night tonight?

Post by pk500 »

Anyone up for an old-school GRID Autosport Poker Night tonight on the Xbox 360? 10 p.m. (ET)?

Would like to get at least four dudes committed before moving forward. Come one, come all!

Not sure how long I could play, as I have company coming into town anywhere from 11ET to 2--but I'd love to see what it's like online.

Twenty-five minutes to green, with only two drivers committed. Not happening. But I'll try again! :)

I would be so in if I had the game. Just for the Bee gees revival....

Maybe picking it up this weekend.

Add me to the list of people that will pick it up if we can get a poker night going. I haven't picked it up yet because I haven't had time to play lately but I will make time if we can get a solid group racing. I'm sure I can get Fshguy as well.

Chicken and egg, motherf*ckers: We can't have a Poker Night until you buy the game. So get your asses out of the pits and into the seat! :)

Seriously, the offline portion of this game is so deep and so superb you'll easily get $50 of enjoyment after the inevitable collapse of enthusiastic DSP Xbox Live play occurs. :)

I bought the game and just raced at Brands Hatch. Finished 11/16 on a three lap race 1. Getting ready for Race 2.

I was never very good but my God have I gotten shitty at racing games...Age is setting in at least on me. Terry will be doing this better than most when he is 80.

What settings are we using? I want to get used to the game the way it will be played online.

Yay for downloads!

Maybe its my driving but the ai cars have taken my out a couple of times....

Did manage a 2nd place at Brands Hatch in race 2 as my team mate was holding off the field for a while. After my previous experience, when the Ai car came at me for first place I just got out of his way. Good practice for a race night. :P :P

Alex, I only use ABS. And I hope to wean myself from that. But I will be very permissive when setting up rooms, probably allowing all driver aids short of braking and steering assist. Full racing line, ABS and traction control will be cool.

Poker Nights are supposed to be fun and inclusive, not the video game equivalent of waterboarding. :)

New job, long hours, lots of tiredness, so I couldn't commit to a batsh*t o'clock race the other night. I'll be there for a race as often as I'm physically capable, though.

Negative. Far too much work before I head to Mosport Wednesday. Sorry!

Have fun.

haven't gotten it yet.

wish there was a way I could "rent" it! Are there any stores that will take back games that are opened or
is that like a stupid question? Walmart?

When I see some regular poker nights on this...I'll download it, too. But I have to be very, very frugal these days, so...

good idea! I'll give it a try.

Edit: all signed up and have Grid in my Q, but it says availability "medium".
Hopefully it will come soon :)
