I'm on PS3 and loving it right now, but I must admit 360 is doing some cool stuff with their avatars... it's pretty cool the way they were able to take the idea Sony had to add avatars to games and run with it.

-Because while Sony has talked about doing it, Microsoft is actually doing it.. this is pretty cool. -so I can't really hate on it.

It's cool the way they have added them to guitar hero too. They really are trying to use them in cool ways..

and Hanging from the rear-view might not be that big a deal to people watching, but it still looks cool to you the person who spent time working on making your avatar.. So that's pretty cool...IMO -(in my opinion)

I like it. I actually spent a little time working on my avatar for 360 and I like the way they did the customization.. it's actually pretty cool.
-So it's ok I can give Microsoft their props on that one, that's actually a cool idea.

I am PS3 owner so looking at the avatars for the 360 version of dirt 2, I am kinds hoping Codemasters have possibly implemented LBP Sackboys for the PS3 version :)

The best rally games of all time

What were the genre’s greatest entries ever?

Yi-Long3105d ago

For me, Rallisport Challenge 2 (Xbox) without a doubt. Amazing gameplay, and fantastic track-design and visuals.

Sega rally 2 on the Dreamcast was my favourite, still is the greatest imo.

I'm not impressed with much in terms of racing this gen. Graphics have been really raised racently, and it wasn't by the "two kings" (GT and Forza) in racing. Shift 2 and the upcoming Project Cars are now DOMINATING racing games graphically, GT5 and Forza 4/H do not even compare. But physics and gameplay-wise, most everything's been "off" aside from a select few. My short list would be.

#1 GT5. It's still rocking everybody in terms of gameplay and variety. It's got every kind of 4 wheeled racing almost from Karts to F1 and everything in between. GT needs to step it up graphically now though. Forza is the LEAST of their worries there.

#2 Motorstorm Pacific Rift. Just the #1 most fun and intense arcade/off-road racer ever made or ever will be made. SOOOOOO much variety compared to the bare bones (but great) first game, and a way better racing game than the 3rd game which was more like Split-Second than MotorStorm in THIS Motorstorm Fan's opinion.

#3 F1 Championship Edition. This PS3 exclusive launch game is imho still the best F1 game this gen in terms of the racing.

#4 FerrariChallenge/SuperCar Challenge. Alot of people havn't heard about these, they got VERY little attention. They sucked because not alot of cars, but it's a fact that System 3 put into these PS3 exclusives (they were on Wii too, but they weren't as advanced) the most advanced, realistic physics to ever be in a console racer. The same physics they put into their PC sim. Good graphics for the time too. Very under-rated.

#5 Shift 2. This is only here because I think graphically, it's a sneak peek at the next level in racing sim graphics. Project Cars is improving on that. But Shift 2 has HORRIBLE physics and I disliked playing it. If Project Cars can get the physics more in line than Shift 2, and have enough of a garage to have the variety in the racing while keeping the online field fairly even like GT5 does, it will truly be the next level of racing sims, and something may actually pull me away from GT5, which nothing has based on gameplay.

Also: WipeOut HD- awesome game, awesome value, it's expansion makes it an even better value, top notch quality.
