Axis by axis
Execution7 vs 7
Even - both lean on execution about the same.
Reads2 vs 2
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance1 vs 2
Ridge Racer Unbounded leans harder on variance: Destruction chaos adds modest track noise
Optimization5 vs 4
Race Driver: Grid leans harder on optimization: Braking points, lines and flashback management are learnable
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
