New video of Colin McRae: DiRT for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.
Steam has slashed 75% off of several Codemasters' racing titles including GRID, FUEL, DiRT, DiRT 2 and ToCA Race Driver 3 along with a bundle containing all five titles as part of its weekend deal promotion.
The first DiRT title was released just before McRae's horribly premature passing, and saw Codemasters essentially rip everything up and start again, giving the franchise a face-lift fit for the next-generation. It highlighted the tone of a series moving increasingly further from the realistic, 'pure' brand of rallying in the earlier games to a more arcade-orientated, thrill-seeking approach. Whether seduced by the bright-lights of, for example, Project Gotham Racing, or whether Codemasters were just seeking change for the sake of change lest creative stagnation take hold, DiRT 2 (yes the strange lower case 'I' is intentional) represents the consolidation of this new approach.
Colin McRae: Dirt 2 (Dirt 2 outside of Europe) is a racing game scheduled to be released in September 2009, and is the sequel to Colin McRae: Dirt. This is the first game in the McRae series after Colin's death. It was announced on 19 November 2008 and will feature the late Colin McRae as well as Ken Block and Travis Pastrana.
that subie looks sexy all muddy...Between this and Forza2 the racing lineup couldn't be better this year. Now hopefully EA can actually do something right with Madden this year (gang tackles YES), and maybe just maybe put out a nice NCAA game also, then racing and sports are taken care of. But we all know the rest of the genres are covered with games like H3, assassins creed etc. 'tis going to be a great summer indeed.
Looks like this game will set the standards on which other rallye sims will be based.
game looks great but the gameplay seems like GT5 style which in my opnion sucks
this will have nothing on motorstorm - did u see the slow downs? copying the crash slow downs of motorstorm? i dont know but this game seems boring
nice graphics tho very nice
you really can't say this looks boring. it's not an arcade style racer like motorstorm just like GT5 isn't. i really love motorstorm but i would never say that Dirt looks boring.
YAWN! TO THE 4TH POWER.
