Bought Grid yesterday and was setting up my profile and for some reason my name didn't appear in the list of spoken names. The closest options were Robert or Rod.

Now fair play my name is often considered to be a girls name (it's Robin) but to not have just Rob seems a bit weird to me.

Still the game is good fun even though the physics did take some getting used to.

As well as being a crap game, they insisted my name was pronounced stefan.

It's sad but for some reason i liked the way every time i played the game it would start with 'Hello Robert' smile

However the stupid effect where it spears you straight on when you get lightly touched by another car is frustrating to say the least.

Was looking through the driver leaderboards last night and one of the racers is called Robin, yet the name doesn't exist in the menu grr.

on a lighter note I tried this with the steering wheel last night, much more fun especially when stability control is turned off biggrin
