looks like codemasters have outdone themselves again!

[Xenocide]

They really are masters of code.

[Altrezia]

Shame they always forget realistic physics, eh.

[remal]

looks bloody impressive. just hope it plays as well as it looks

[RobPhoboS]

Na I'd say shame about the name...
Dirt

and colins dirt at that !

Looked like a rendered intro sequence to me not how the game played will look.

Of course it is, it even says "CG Intro" at the top of the page

No matter how it looks, the physics will still suck. Colin McRae rally 2.0 was the last Codemasters game with anything approaching decent physics. From there on it has just gotten worse and worse.

If these days of Live For Speed, GT Legends, GT4 etc.. how people can play a CM game and think to themselves "yes, this handles just like a real car" is beyond me, but every review will happily state "the physics are incredibly realistic". Erm, no. They suck.

Ah I didn't not that, I got bored after the 3rd stop to buffer the thing.

Many people would suggest GT4 isn't in any position to look down on the physics of CMR...


I agree the physics of CMR isn't great though, not the worst I've played but definitely nowhere near the likes of Richard Burns Rally.

Ok, this IS actual gameplay..

and it looks absolutely stonking.

GT4 is one of the worst driving games I have played;

Good points:
700 Cars, however there are a lot of variations of the same car, i.e at least 20 Nissan Skylines, Evo's etc...

bad points:
Unrealistic Physics
Crappy graphics (no damage, no dirt) The scenery is nice, but the car detailing is quite bad
Crappy engine sounds
Dull
Lifeless

Thank you! At least somebody agrees with me!

Many people agree with you


though I think this thread was about Colin McRae Rally before I helped side-track it
