DiRT Rally 2

Slightly above average or simply inoffensive. Fans of the genre should enjoy it a bit, but a fair few will be left unfulfilled.How we score:  The Destructoid reviews...

The original DiRT Rally still holds up as one of the greatest racing simulation games of all time. It wasn't perfect for sure, but the overall driving experience was so good you could easily overlook its relatively minor flaws. When Codemasters...

DiRT Rally 2.0 far surpasses other rally titles and other games that feature, though don't specialise in rallying. With an extensively detailed roster of cars, where each of them feels, handles and reacts differently, on tracks that actively degrade...

It's deep, involving and crafted with love, and you can't help but love it back in turn. The original Dirt Rally made a convincing claim at being the best off-road sim to date. I think its sequel can lay claim to being one of the best driving experiences available right now.
