Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

The world of Rally Driving is an interesting one. Get a car that is virtually the same as a standard road-going vehicle, and then drive it as fast as you can along a dirt track with hairpin bends, fjords, and basically terrain that the car wouldn't take too kindly to. Sounds like fun, you say. Colin McRae Rally 2 from Codemasters tries to recreate that sense of fun. Coming into a field that is already jam-packed with great titles like V-Rally 2 and the original Colin McRae, it has somehow managed to produce the goods not only in the form of a game that does what it does well, but also introduces new ideas to what is a rather staid format. Every little detail has been taken care of, whether it's the presentation of the Wipeout3 looking option screens, or the dents on your car as you hurtle around the courses. 12 different cars and over 80 new rally tracks in 8 countries to choose from will keep you busy. If this doesn't satisfy, then perhaps the inclusion of a large multiplayer section within the game, where you have the option to race six people in a tag team scenario, will. Colin McRae Rally 2.0 advances the original Colin McRae Rally. Improved graphics and better, more realistic gameplay has allowed this game to be among the greats when it comes to quality rally driving. If you a rally fan, then it's well worth the investment. If however, you believe that once you've played one rally game, you've played them all, it's probably best to steer clear of this one and stick to the one you've already got. --Stuart Miles

Product Description

The defining moment for rally video games has been redefined. One of the world's most successful and acclaimed video games has been stripped down, rebuilt and reengineered in Colin McRae Rally 2.0.

Starring McRae's Ford Focus as one of the 12 rally cars accurately recreated in the game, Colin McRae Rally 2.0 delivers all the speed of rally driving.

Created with close attention to detail, all the effects add greatly to the realism of the game as spoilers can crack, the back bumper can break off from one corner so that it drags along the ground and windscreens can shatter

It's man and machine against the elements as weather effects vary through each track and are randomly generated, appropriate to each country. Race a country and you will experience one set of weather conditions, race it again and experience another completely different set of conditions.

By Mr. A. J. P. Brouard VINE™ VOICE
Format:Video Game
A terribly addictive gaming experience for all the "boy racers" of this world.
The game-play is excellent with a multitude of challenging stages for the budding rally driver to tackle. A wide variety of surfaces (from tarmac to gravel to snow and ice) are all faithfully translated into vastly different handling characteristics in your chosen car.
You simply have to keep going back for more as you build your skill level through head to head challenges, arcade style racing and ultimately the rally championship itself. You commence as a novice, which should prove about as challenging as taking on your gran in her Morris Minor! However,if you think this is too easy then think again as Intermediate level requires quite a lot of practice. 8 stages on each rally, some driven in the dark and one serious error can result in the difference between a win and 12 points or none at all. Remember, you have to beat the man himself and that's not easy.
In common with other titles there is a repair function after each 2 stages- but beware weather conditions can change, so don't ignore you setup- and you've only got 60 mins of allocated time for all the work. If your gearbox needs repair that's 14 minutes before looking at anything else.
Then it's on to expert level, and here if you don't have the right car you won't stand a chance. So make sure you have completed all the games various challenges before progressing to this level and that you have unlocked previously inaccessible cars.
Now each stage is 10 or 11 stages and you can't afford many slips if you want to win. Totally addictive and with Mcrae possibly in sight of another World Championship interest in this game may well jump in the run up to christmas. My advice is don't miss it and let's hope Codemasters are working on the PS2 version.
