Codemaster has unleashed a fast paced racing video about their upcoming title Colin McRae Dirt. This off-road game will power shift on store's shelves this summer. In the mean time, check out this trailer from IGN.
Steam has slashed 75% off of several Codemasters' racing titles including GRID, FUEL, DiRT, DiRT 2 and ToCA Race Driver 3 along with a bundle containing all five titles as part of its weekend deal promotion.
The first DiRT title was released just before McRae's horribly premature passing, and saw Codemasters essentially rip everything up and start again, giving the franchise a face-lift fit for the next-generation. It highlighted the tone of a series moving increasingly further from the realistic, 'pure' brand of rallying in the earlier games to a more arcade-orientated, thrill-seeking approach. Whether seduced by the bright-lights of, for example, Project Gotham Racing, or whether Codemasters were just seeking change for the sake of change lest creative stagnation take hold, DiRT 2 (yes the strange lower case 'I' is intentional) represents the consolidation of this new approach.
Colin McRae: Dirt 2 (Dirt 2 outside of Europe) is a racing game scheduled to be released in September 2009, and is the sequel to Colin McRae: Dirt. This is the first game in the McRae series after Colin's death. It was announced on 19 November 2008 and will feature the late Colin McRae as well as Ken Block and Travis Pastrana.
This is how next gen racing games are supposed to look!
too bad this is not gameplay, 360 and Ps3 can't handle it.
This game is garbage compared to Motorstorm,HD graphics baby,but then again Motorstorm should of had split-screen,I hope they fix that in the next game.
"This game is garbage compared to Motorstorm,HD graphics baby"
You could have HD graphics on a pile of sh*t and it wont make it good. Motorstorm is average. This game will be the real deal.
once this game is out, people will say "motor-what?"
