I don't even want to count the number of Colin McRae: Dirt 2 videos I've put online since this game was announced, but with such great visuals I'm not really complaining. This time it's all about the World Tour mode, and it's looking good.
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Days ago)
Driftwood @Loakum: enjoy, the one Sony sent us will be there on launch day. Coverage will follow asap. (3 Days ago)

The swedish rally tracks would be sweet to see in Dirt 2´s graphical fidelity, that´s for sure! I am from Sweden BTW, so that would make it even more fun for me :D
Colin McRae with Ken Block on the cover ? And they said they wanted to make this a tribute to McRae - how about actually adding the WRC ?
So sad, with this engine and technology night-racing through the finnish forests would have been a blast.
Well, the way i see it Codemasters really want to make this game hit in the biggest market possible: America. But even thou' i won't be bying it ( and wouldn't have even if it did feature WRC ) i can understand why it bothers the european rally fans.
As Jodque pointed out, this engine could really do justice to the european tracks from snowy Sweden to rainy U.K and everything in between.
Who has the rights for WRC at the moment? Is it still sony ? Maybe Evolution Studios should put Motorstorm series on hold and do a new WRC game for a change..
I LIKE
HOWEVER, the car list based on the demo (the locked cars) is very disappointing, very little in the way of classics like the Mini Cooper, Lancia Stratos, Delta, RS200 which were still around in earlier CMR games...
*vomits*
A beautifull one at that though (can't stress that enough).
BTW, Sony I do believe does have the rights to WRC. I have seen Loeb's Citroen and Solberg's (now retired) WRC2008 in trailers (see the damage video on this site, for instance--isn't that Solberg's WRC2008?). Though I was thoroughly impressed with Dirt 2 (the graphics of course, and the physics and driving engine seem to be a big improvement over Dirt 1), I'm thinking the rally game for rally fans to buy this winter is going to be GT5 (damn, I wish this game wasn't an exclusive, because now I'm going to get flamed for that). If you want to drive fast and crash hard in a game that looks good (and aren't that interesting in the intricacies of racing), then Dirt 2 seems to be for you.
Oh Canada!!
