GRID 1.3 PC patch released

GRID 1.3 PC patch released

Though the third major PC patch for Codemasters' 2008 racer GRID is kind of late (they sincerely apologize), it's a good one, and players are celebrating at the release.

Included with version 1.3 is support for Motion Platform D-Box (this thing), an increase in view distance, and a bunch of fixes. One surprise though is the "announcement" for some upcoming DLC -- no details yet, though.

If you bought the retail version, you can grab that via the source; if you went digital, your patch should be going live in a few days. 1.3 is compatible with previous patches; release notes are below.
