Is the latest WRC game 'rally good?:
"There’s even more cars than ever before, with a roster than goes right back to the dawn of competitive rallying in the late 60’s and early 70’s. Having said that, there is a slightly more arcade feel to some of the handling characteristics than was present in the very much hardcore games of the last two years, so there’s less of a defined difference between the cars, and the surfaces which you drive on."
TeamVVV writes: "Hot on the heels of our WRC 5 vs Sebastien Loeb Rally EVO comparison we thought we'd now pit the nine-time world rally champion endorsed game up against WRC 3.
What's particularly interesting here is that both games were developed by the same team – Milestone. Of course Milestone have since lost the WRC license to Kylotonn Games but don't rule them out bidding for it back in the future."
YouTube's member 'nfsking2000' has created an interesting tribute to rally games, in which we get to see the actual evolution of this genre from its MS-DOS days to its current-gen ones.

colin mcrae's

WRC's
topgear n64

WRC this gen stuck to its roots even though milestone took over they really improved and i cant wait for WRC4 on the VITA <---- now thats evolution : )
The last great rally game was Colin McRae Rally 2005. Everything after that, went towards the arcade racer market. Now that being said, due to where I live I have never been able to play the WRC series.
Richard Burns Rally is still considered the best rally game ever made by many hardcore rally game fans.
If Milestone could tune its car handling model and polish its visual output, the next version of WRC could help us forget that Codemasters has abandoned the world’s most mesmerizing motorsport.
