Incredible GameStrengths: Pure "Eye-Candy" graphics, lots of different types of races, challenging and great racing physics. The sound effects are also top notch. Weakness: My girlfriend might break-up with me if I keep giving this game all of my attention, but the game does not have any weaknesses This is a truly incredible game with awesome graphics and a realistic feel due to the top notch physics. There are plenty of different types or races and challenges in this game keeps me coming back for more and is a must have for any true racing fan. The racing challenge is great and does not have an arcade-style feel. The game requires true driving skills and is not forgiving to the amateur. If you love true racing sim games, then this game is for you. You will not be disappointed! I have been using my friend's copy of this game for weeks, but i had to give it back to him today. I could not bare the thought of not having this game so I ordered my own copy today. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Grime was never so beautifulStrengths: Richly detailed world and objects; exciting user interface Weakness: Slippery rally cars may turn off the casual audience Codemasters has done a fantastic job bringing the Colin McRae Rally series to the next-generation. The graphics are photo-realistic, including in-car views, and exciting damage-modeling on both vehicles and environments. Sort of as with their Race Driver series, there are multiple vehicle and race types, adding variety to the once rally car-only gameplay. The UI is something that must be seen to be appreciated, and it actually makes waiting for races to load interesting by presenting fun little stats about your progress with a dynamic style. By nature of the sport, however, the slippery nature of the cars may make the game inaccessible to fans of arcade racers. That being said, it doesn't lean too far into sim territory, so it's a good starting point for those interested in experiencing the chaos of chucking a car dangerously through nature.

DiRT
It’s been a while since I’ve ever been excited about a rally racing game and this coming from a guy obsessed with hot cars and the mostly European appreciation for tearing it up in the dirt in the Australian outback. I can blame my love for rally racing to the Colin McRae Rally games that Codemasters introduced a long while back on the Xbox and so, you can see, I was excited to hear that... Top

Fun Rally Racing
Strengths: Incredible Graphics
Weakness: None
This has to be the best rally game out so far. The graphics for everything, the cars and all surroundings, look very detailed and realistic. The name of the game, Dirt, is very fitting because so much of it flies around and ends up on your ride. It even shines when you misstep. The damage that is inflicted when you really mess up looks great and impacts how the vehicle handles for the remainder of the race. The sound, as with most games now, matches the graphics.
