    Hold on i'm just cleaning my muddy vehicle

    Colin Mcrae DiRT has been looking great from the trailers and it feels great too! From Codemasters who had recently made, lack of quality PURE, and also making GRID, it sticks to the 4 letter names. But this time it's far better than both of those games, you go through a pyramid of many events, that if you plpayed it straight would probably take you 3 hours to complete. It looks absoloutely great, the graphics are awesome, and so are the crashes. For once the computer drivers sometimes crash, whereas in most racing games, they have a super brain and never crash, but this time it's more realistic.

    There are many modes to choose from in DiRT; Rally Raid, RallyCross, Crossover, Hill Climb, and Corr Suber Buggy. All of which seem to be amusing, especially go iup hill in a milk crate on hill climb looks fantastic! Though the lack of tracks lets it down a bit, while your playing through the career you seem to be doing the same tracks pver and over again. And it makes the pyramid feel repetitive. But if you don't want to go to the career, then you can do rally word, which is simply just a quick race. You can also do championships, which are VERY long, (But it's worth it because you get a lot of achievements/trophys).

    Now onto the online, the problem is that you don't actually race against anyone, there never on the track with you, your always doing time trials by yourself, and it will just start to feel like single-player.

    Finally there's the menu presentation. It's no wonder it won Menu of the year award. This is because it has large loading times, though you'll be occupied by your statistics from what you have done over your career and you won't get bored of that.

    Overall DiRT Is a very good game, there could be some improvements here and there, but if you can see past them, it's probably Codemasters best game made.

      And here I thought I would never get into the modern racer. Attempts to get into the genre with Forza and Gran Turismo have left me non-plussed, but I think I have finally found my gateway into the genre with this rally racer by the name of DIRT.  I went without serious racers for a long time. F-Zero GX was (and may always be) my favorite, and I had never bothered to try anything in the Colin McRae series, not expecting it to play so differently from the many street racers that have hit consoles...

      It's actually as fun as it looks. 0

      Some say that DiRT has too much racing and that the game takes so long to load you could down a pint and smoke three packs of cigarettes before it launches. All I know is that it's one extremely fun game and I have perhaps made the worst Top Gear presenter spoof of all time. But just like Top Gear, DiRT is something you can enjoy immensely. It has the looks and feel of a well formed game and leads to endless segments of fun. The graphics aren't stunning, but they are damn good and when you thi...
