When the trailer for GRID was released, some of us immediately became excited over what appeared to be a Gran Turismo-like game, with Burnout influences. Much like Codemaster’s hit game DiRT before it, GRID shows that the guys know a thing or two about hitting us with that much-needed eye candy that we’ve come to associate with racing games. Seeing those highly detailed cars flipping over and spinning out left me feeling all giddy inside. Racing is all about winning, but it has always been the crashes that drew the most excitement (in games, anyway).

The teaser follows two recovery agents at Outpost 17-B “Valhalla” as they sweep a barricaded base after a suspected incident. A voice-over reads a letter from the director of Project Freelancer in respect to a request made from the chairman of the Oversight Sub-committee for an investigation into the Outpost’s deserted status. We don’t want to ruin the entire trailer but let’s just say that Reconstruction has definitely piqued our interest.

You know, to see how things are progressing over at THQ. And after our lil’ search concluded, we came across three Saints Row 2 video gems. Videos that give us a glimpse at the game’s gameplay and showcase some of the game’s features all through street lessons taught by that “interesting” dude Gary Busey. No joke, it’s the one and only Gary Busey. We’ll let the videos talk for themselves (one embedded above, two after the break), but be prepared.
