To learn more about the Grip Combat Racing game and its development process jump over to the official PlayStation blog by following the link below. Rob explains a little more about the challenges the development team needed to overcome “As the principal programmer on Grip: Combat Racing, I’m responsible for producing all of the code for the game. It’s been a painstaking development process with difficult problems to solve. Making a game that pits vehicles against each other at over 700 mph is a challenge even with cars that keep their wheels firmly on the road… but in Grip you can drive on walls, ceilings or anything else you can get your tires to”.
