GRID 2 achievements list to be designed by trophy hounds

Codemasters has joined forces with the team behind Xbox360Achievements.org and PS3Trophies.org to design the achievements list for GRID 2.

The design process will be documented on both sites.

EIC Dan Webb described the arrangement as his "biggest personal goal" and a chance to prove the team's mettle after years of criticising developer-designed achievements lists.

Codemasters executive producer Clive Moody said the two sites are recognised as the "go to" destinations for achievement information.

"Their extensive knowledge coupled with our studio talent will make for a uniquely crafted list with insight from the experts, offering gamers real challenge and reasons to chase every possible reward. It’s a new approach, but we think it will be a lot of fun and a great way to give player’s an insight into this increasingly important element of game design," he said.

GRID 2 is due on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in northern summer.
