Default GRID for 14.99 on Steam

I've never played GRID. Is it worth it for 15 bucks?? Also, is it better with a gamepad/wheel? Thanks!

I played it on Xbox 360 and it was worth it. It would probably be better with the wheel.

if you have a wheel.
GET IT.

take a little tweaking to get it set up well, but it's worth it.

It's definitely worth it. The game has awesome physics, it's fast paced, fun, looks great, and controls well with a 360 controller or a wheel. Do it.
