Everything that goes into the game impacts on that second-to-second, in the moment, blockbuster drama \u2013 the feel and personality of the race.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The sequel will feature a single-player career mode, split-screen and online components, along with deep customisation options.<\/p>\n<p>GRID 2 is scheduled for a 2013 release on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style
