Crashes Constantly August 6, 2010 J. Vaughn (Daytona Beach, Florida United States) I love playing the game..................when it works. It crashes constantly on my Windows 7 64 bit machine and the only way I have found to fix it, although temporarily, is to completely remove and install again. The problem seems to be during saves and I think it has to do with the Windows Live thing. This would probably be a great game if it wasn't for the fact that you must be signed into Windows Live in order to play and save your progress.
Removing and installing is time consuming enough but each time you start the game, you must wait for a series of videos before getting into the game.
I would give this game five stars if it wasn't crippled with Windows Live.
best racing game of the year August 3, 2010 ampgreen Awesome visuals !!!
I bought both the xbox 360 version and the PC version, and the PC version is a small amount prettier using higher resolution and direct-x 11 graphics. Both versions are among the top two or three best looking racing games ever made , (arguably including GRID and GRAN TURISMO PROLOGUE).Gran Turismo 5
The forcefeedback and precision of control is excellent with either a wheel or a joypad.
The variety of races is excellent, (Rallycars, baja trucks and buggies, RAID,.
Lush forests,realistic water, dust, mud, jumps, rollovers, crashes, broken car parts, awesome.
The A.I. is lots of fun to race against offline, bumping and shoving and mixing it up.
This game is a definate buy.
Be a realist and you'll enjoy the game August 3, 2010 S. Unmack Larsen (Denmark) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
For a long time I had some serious trouble with this game: it was too difficult. Rather more so than "Colin MacRae Rally" on the Mac; or "Dirt" and even "Grid" on the PS 3.
But now I have come to terms with realities and my own pride, lowered the level of difficulty to "Casual" and I am pleased to say everything is MUCH improved :-)
These racing games are far from easy for the likes of me, but I do enjoy exploring a dirt track until I get to know it by heart and I finally can get in that one adequate restart, the object of all we desire. Graphics are so beautiful, very fine and detailed, the experience is bumpy and noisy, maintaining control is just this side of barely possible and the co-driver is actually very useful indeed: listen to him and you'll discover his warnings come at just the right time.
Many's the time I have quit the game with and oath or even two ...but I never fail to return and that is the highest praise for any game: that frustrations never prevent you from wanting more of the same. Grrrr.
Its a 1 player racing game July 30, 2010 J. Rodr (Mexico) I dont understand why are there 1 player racing games, why not make it at the very least a 2 player game? Sure, there is an online 2 player game mode and a 2 player network mode, but you need two xboxes and 2 games.
1 player mode is good, but nothing new. Very disappointed.
Best rally game ever with a wheel! July 26, 2010 Eric Boosman (Seattle, WA USA) We know the game is great, the progression is steady and fun, nice selection of cars (although I would have liked to have more, especially classics like the delta integrale, pugeot 206/207, etc.), the graphics are great, the sound is great.
What really puts this game over the top for me, though, is how it plays with a steering wheel. I have a Logitech G25 Racing Wheel hooked up to my PS3, which I mainly used with Gran Turismo. I tried it with DiRT2 and it's incredibly fun. It's the best rally game I've ever played with a wheel (more fun than Richard Burns Rally, RalliSport Challenge, and anything else that's come before). The feel is fantastic and there are plenty of advanced wheel config options if you don't like the default control (I do, though).
Highly recommended, and I highly recommend you play with a good force feedback wheel like the G25 or the Logitech G27 Racing Wheel
