    4 Stars Get Dirty with Dirt! 25/01/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Graphics, gameplay and variety.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Long load times before races.

    I am an avid gamer who has been playing games since the days of early Atari consoles and have always enjoyed the thrill of the racing game. Colin McRae rally games have been around for sometime and are often thought of as simulation games. Tricky to drive, lots of fiddling about with settings etc just to be able to reach the end of the course. One for the purist rally fanatic you might say but over the generations the realism has improved and the controls been ironed out to make the games more playable and now that Dirt has been offered as the first McRae game on the next gen consoles I ... more

    3 Stars ...3 left, into jump, into, shallow gameplay... 13/08/2007
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Best Graphics of any game, long career, many disciplines and vehicles.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Terrible handling, annoying pace-notes and menu commentary.

    I've been a huge fan of the Colin McRae series (and the man himself) since it began almost 10 years ago in 1998, so i was salivating at the prospect of this game. Even though McRae has since retired from WRC in the real world, i guess the license is yet to, so it'll be interesting to see how many more games they push out under his name. So firstly the most pronounced aspect of this game is the graphics engine. I have muttered to my friends many times "best looking game out in any genre on any platform, Period." This still stands, with immensely detailed forests and huge sweeping vistas. The ... more

    Advantages Advantages fun and fast exhilarating gameplay, Graphics are decent

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Multi-player has more potential than you're given, loss of realism.

    After being a fan of the Colin McRae games for a long while I was somewhat excited when I first heard about this game and after playing the demo I was more anxious to actually get the game. Gameplay This is you’re typical rally style racing game however what makes this one stand out from the crowd is the different types of races. In DiRT there are a few different types of races to go along with the traditional rally race, crossover, mountain climb and multi-car rally raid, just to name but a few. Not only is there a range of different race types, the types of cars that you get to drive. These ... more

    4 Stars Colin Mcrae DIRT - The truth 16/11/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Graphics are amazing, good fun

    Disadvantages Disadvantages no offline multiplayer, handling is poor

    Colin Mcrae DIRT for the XBOX 360 Ok, the game - Good, but not brilliant. Its a rally driving game from the late Colin Mcrae, its a great game to play, with lots of things to do, and the graphics are phenominal, it has to be one of the best games for graphics available at the minute. Their is Career, championship and multiplayer modes, career is good fun, with a huge variety of courses and events available, however, it can be really repetetive, so its best to only play bits at a time. The handling of the cars disappointed me, it can be difficult to control them, and they dont usually handle ... more

    5 Stars Colin Mcrae's Racing Ahead on the 360 24/07/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great fun, long playability, exceptional graphics, adjustable difficulty and reasonable price :-)

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Lack of music, can be slightly repetitive >:-(

    WOW! This is by far the best game in the Colin Mcrae series and possibly the most realistic rally game in the world. Codemasters have gone to extreme lengths in creating the latest addition to the series, which includes 40+ vehicles of a great veriety, ranging from super buggys to the ever popular rally car the Subaru Impreza WRX. The career mode is so vast and has specific goals for you to aim for which increase the playability factor of the game, and also can make it very addictive. The graphics are top quality, you cannot expect more from a rally game, great detail can be found all over the ... more
