I used to! 'SKOAR' was my all-time favourite before the magazine vanished into oblivion. I am sure it must be available but then, the net gives me my daily dose on gaming. 'Computer Gaming World' was another gaming magazine that I absolutely loved to read.

Anyone tried Race Driver GRID ?

@Kriss: So, you've got 'Warhead' which is great news! Kindly share the first impressions of the actual gameplay, please. I would really appreciate that.

Anyone tried Race Driver GRID ?

Yup, I did and believe me it's an awesome game if you have the patience to go through the learning curve, that is. It's unlike games like NFS or say any other arcadeish racer. It can be best compared to the Colin Mc.Rae series games (if you've played or heard about it, you would know what you are getting into with GRiD)...

Just got my hands on Crysis Warhead. It's the first game that I am running on my shiny new Vista Ultimate. Only played for five minutes to get a feel of what gaming is like in Vista(I wanted to see if Vista hogged it down as well). Pleased to inform that the game runs butter smooth on my modest rig. The graphics are by far the best I have seen.(My benchmark for graphics is Half Life 2 EP3). The gameplay is better as well.Guns are nicely detailed,the motion blur is uber cool and anti-aliasing dosent drop the framerates by much,although I seem to have the same delayed audio problem as I had in the original.
The combat system has seen a change.The AI is,in my opinion the same as Crysis but the bullet damage is more realistic this time round. Gone are the days when you found yourself perched under a bush and firing round after round only to find the enemy dance around while getting hit.
Headshots are easier this time round. Not to mention this time we get a bigger arsenal. Have to get back in the game to find them out.

Final verdict: Highly recommended.

My Config:
Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 32bit
AMD Opteron 146
Crucial Ballastix 2 GB DDR 400mhz.
Asus A8R32 MVP Deluxe.
Ati Radeon 1800GTO-256MB.
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy
