Wolfox: For the record, it seems Absolute Power is on sale on Steam now.
Yeah, I notcied, thanks. That's why I wasn't too gutted when lackoo1111 told me it probably wasn't going to work.
Wolfox: Ok, both GRID and Dirt 2 are on sale on Steam. I want to get one of them (and only one). Which one should I pick?
Tough call. Personally I prefer GRiD simply because I prefer road racing to offroad. I also like the way that the campaign is set out in GRiD too. Although it does take a little while before giving you that much control over the campaign.
As is typical of Codemasters driving games it's all pretty railroaded from the start. Personally I prefer having options right from the start. But yeah they're both pretty good and it's purely a matter of personal preference really. Just don't expect a rally game from DiRT 2.
