This Day in Gaming 🎂

In retro news, I’m celebrating the 12th birthday of GRiD 2, a weirdly capitalised racer that nonetheless delivered. Codemasters popped the hood on this sequel and bolted in a new ‘TrueFeel’ handling system, hoping to hit the apex between realism and accessibility. Personally, I remember it having Bathurst DLC, lacking a cockpit view, veering more arcadey than I liked, and featuring pretty kick arse terminal damage crashes. Oh, and it also had a literal Easter Egg—setting your date to Easter would prompt the narrator to ask you to not get chocolate on your steering wheel.

On Nintendo Switch, Golf Story swings in at just $2.20. It’s a charming Aussie-made RPG that merges golfing with offbeat storytelling, made by a two-person dev team based in Queensland. Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope also lights up the fairway, offering tactical mayhem and an unlikely alliance, a concept Ubisoft had to repeatedly pitch to Nintendo before getting the green light.

Pure Scores for PlayStation

Over on PS5, Ghost of Yōtei makes its debut at $99, with dev interviews revealing the titular mountain setting was inspired by actual treks up Hokkaido’s Mount Yōtei. Elden Ring Nightreign adds flair with new lore penned by Miyazaki and fellow worldbuilder George R.R. Martin (who once joked that FromSoft still hasn’t told him how the game ends). Spoiler George, for some of us it ends in death. Repeated death. Followed by an angry trade-in.
