There's a lot of guys (maybe gals too!) that are stuck at work just wondering. Can't wait for this game. The crashes look awesome.

2 - What about PS3?

I own a 360 and I'm glad we get demos to download from the Marketplace for free. But hasn't PS3 got a download service? I'm just wondering why they haven't got the Dirt demo today?

I mean. Good for 360 guys. Too bad for PS3 I guess.

I guess the PS3 wont get the demo for a while yet coz the PS3 version has been delayed for a while while the 360 and PC versions are out in a couple of weeks (but I guess why would anyone with a PS3 buy DIRT when they can have Motorstorm!)

2.3 - Reason for PS3 delay.

The reason for the PS3 delay is that they need to port it to the PS3. It's not like they're licensing the Unreal 3 engine which I'm guessing comes prepackaged with PS3, 360, and PC build tools. The Neon engine was built by Codemasters and I'm guessing they need to create all their own build tools for the PS3. If this is the case, then the next Codemaster's title using this engine (I think Toca) will be simultaneously released on all platforms as the build tools will be already made.

After seeing DiRT, I think Codemasters is going to become a serious contender for all racing genre games. I don't believe I've seen better looking environments in a racing game. Ever.

2.4 - @Leathersoup

Not quite right. The NEON engine was built by Codemasters in collaboration with Sony in order to get an engine that could be as compatible and utilize as much as possible of the PS3s power. It's a mystery why the game is being delayed on the PS3 (or is it...).

All is exellent, 3 tracks, 3 cars. Lovely visuals, not a jaggy in site! Nice lighting, great shadows, fabulous damage model! Framerate dips a touch now and then but is rarely noticable. Exellent sound effects, menu/gui screens is very flashy, a wee bit of loading between races but nothing on the scale of PGR (helps the fact you are given user stats instead of the usual "loading" screen). Most importantly it handles increadibly well. Forget the Motorstorm comparision as they are most defo different games, a lap round with the buggys on Dirt should be proof enough. My favourite portion of the game is the point to point part of the game, select the mitsubishi for this. All in all im very impressed. Hope this helps

4.3 - no multiplayer?

You lost me there because i need replay value. The game looks great and would of stopped me from buying forza 2. Sadly, the no multiplayer aspect to race against others just killed it for me.

If it does then I'll definitly consider buying it if more information is let out.

Damn this is downloading slow.
Normally I download from XBL and PSN with about 1MB per sec, meaning this demo should be down in under 15 minutes. Now its been going for 1½ hours and it's only at 50%.

I always cancel the download and then start downloading it again. Most off the time you get a 20-30% increase immediately and it starts running faster.

9 - the game looks really nice

i have the pc demo. very nice textures i must say. but i would definitely not compare this to motorstorm. way different games. imo i would have to say i like moto better.

p.s. anyone else with the pc demo notice there is a multiplayer option for 2 to 100 people??? whoa!!

I don't get you guys.

I love racers. I have Motor-storm and love it.
This one doesn't sell me at all. I mean motorstorm is much prettier and the car damage is much better. Don't get me wrong, this game looks great. But I don't think I will buy this one.
Don't even know if the demo is gonna be played again.

When I compare it to Motorstorm I of course mean the buggie racer track.

17 - Downloaded the demo...

My first impressions were hell, this looks better than Forza 2 and after playing it for 20 mins I went, damn! the visuals are definitely better!

Only concern is that I noticed some tearing in the graphics on the Germany course.

I have only seen Motorstorm in-store and must say that DIRT holds up pretty well. However, why bother comparing anything else as these are completely different racing games. Kind of like comparing the PGR and Forza franchises.

I just beat Colin McRae! I had to try about 5 times but I finally got the handling down. The world record lap time on this track is 1min, my PB is 1:08.....whats everyone elses PB. I'm off to try the other two races!! Game looks good and plays well..it's a buy for me.

power of Green - 945 days ago

19 - So why compare Forza 2 to Dirt?. #17

Both games look good Dirt's color filtered. Have you seen some of Forza's tracks? both games are almost equally impressive. I want to believe you but i just can't help thinking you're a Sony fanboy you could have cheched out Dirt anywhere on the net.

#18 the Game is simply the best offroad game i'v ever seen/played. Grand Raid Offroad should offer some next-gen bliss aswell as soon as the devs continue to work on it if they ever do. http://screenshots.teamxbox...
