![]() Unlike race tracks, stage rally doesn’t have any runoff for when you mess up (more on that later). You can’t huck a car into a corner and pull off the perfect drift of your fantasies just because it’s a video game. It requires you to get used to how your decisions affect what will happen down the road. ![]() This game is extremely sensitive to your controls. But it turns out, I was just being sloppy with my inputs. The first time I tried to go down a stage, I thought something was wrong with my controller. There’s also a couple of cars in the game that don’t exist in real life, like rally versions of the Camaro GT4 and Mustang GT4 factory race cars. ![]() The game has pretty much every cool car you’ve watched on YouTube flying through the stages. Players can choose from a wide array of different rally-prepped vehicles, from old Ford Escorts, to 911 GT3s, to Aston Martin Vantages, to the latest WRC hatchbacks. Though I usually gravitate towards multiplayer when it comes to racing games, I spent most of my time in the single-player stage mode, grinding through different championships using various classes of car. It’s everything you’d expect a hardcore rally game to be, plus more. In addition to the stage rally, there’s rallycross, which lets you race against other players. There’s a handful of different modes, a seemingly endless amount of stages, and plenty of awesome cars to choose from. The physics are surprisingly realistic, as are the cars and the sounds. ![]() Like its predecessor, Dirt Rally, its aim is to be a dedicated simulator rather than something anyone can just flip on and play for 30 minutes. I’ve always been interested, but no rally game ever caught my eye-until I saw the first gameplay trailers for Dirt Rally 2.0.ĭirt Rally 2.0 is the 13th game in the Colin McRae Rally series, which first hit stores in 1998. But never a game designed solely around rallying. I’ve played plenty of traditional driving games like Forza Motorsport and Gran Turismo, and more arcade stuff like Forza Horizon. ![]()
