Compared to its flawed predecessor, WRC 2 currently doesn’t feel like the revolutionary leap forward it needed to be.
Online video game retailer GamersGate are having a video game sale offering huge discounts on select Racing titles all week long.
Cyber Front has released a new video for the racing game WRC 2 FIA World Rally Championship. The game is going to be released on February 16 2012 in Japan. WRC 2 FIA World Rally Championship from the 2011 season and gamers get to experience the realistic driving through such cars as the Subaru Impreza and Mini Countryman WRC.
2010’s World Rally Championship was a decent game that was severely hamstrung in terms of presentation and content. In a genre that has gone beyond point to point races into more exotic ideas such as gymkhana and full-on, multi-terrain races, this pure rallying experience was always going to have a tough time trying to appeal beyond the niche audience that would be keen for it.
So with the inevitable sequel now sitting on store shelves, can WRC2 move beyond it’s traditional constraints, or is this a case of Déjà two?
I prefer wrc 2 because it has better physics, feels like a rally game and not an extreme sports advertisement. dirt 3 got boring very quickly.
Kind of off topic, but I really hate the way in WRC 2010 that the finishing line of the stage ALWAYS has an indestructible scaffolding structure thing there that is barely wider than the width of your car.
Where on earth did they get that from???? No WRC stages have anything like that...
Also, I hate the co-driver.
'Pity they couldn’t obtain this year’s WRC lineup however.'.
Really?? What's missing?
Shame this preview didn't mention if they improved the physics of things like trees and water. Are the trees still unbreakable, unmovable pillars that stop your car dead like the last game?
Is the water just a white bar of polygons that slow you down a tad, like the last game?
Are the Japan stages still like driving through the set of some Seven Samurai remake, with cherry blossoms in Autumn???
