Borrowed this off a mate as I liked the full version. Tis very arcadey and not as 'simmy' as you would think. Best with a controller of sorts tho, keys are a bit shit for it.

In game graphics at Ultra high:

Give the demo a bash, but I recommend just :sweep: the whole game.

BE WARNED THO, HAS STARFARCE AND USES UP JUST OVER 10GB WHEN INSTALLED

Tried the 360 demo, was quite nice, but I don't do racing games.

I've got the room, I like the shiney, but starfuck? Nothankyewangudnite. The stuff it can do to your pc is just NOT worth it.

Tried the 360 demo and didn't like it at all - either the cars have some amazingly advanced traction control system that prevents cars skidding even when jamming on the brakes going around a corner at full speed on mud/gravel, or it's a bit rubbish. It should look like Mario Kart if that's the feel it's trying to emulate.

Those front tires in the pic look ludicrously slim for a rally car. Nice bush, though.

Doubly disappointing as the previous Colin McRae games offered a decent level of simluation.

Tis a tricky one to get to grips with. After about half an hour on the PC version I had the back skipping out brilliant whenever I needed it too. Is quite odd tho, as until you get the hang of actually making the back skip out your right in saying it doesn't ''feel'' like the back is sliding. Even tho on the replays you can see that it is.

i bought this on the day it came out (it's my kind of game :) ). tis very very nice, even on lowest graphics and 800x600.
shitforce isnt too bad with Dirt (so far) seen as i actually have the disc but im sure there will be a un-starforce'd exe file somewhere on the webs.

Get rid of Cockforce and the vaseline on the lens and I'd be up for it

That does seem to be a favourite of developers these days, it's like the history of cinema repeating itself in games.
