....a decent 360 rally game.

Due to a lack of games appealing to me I purchased a copy of DIRT despite the mixed opinions on this title. After a good few hours with the game it has only wetted my apitite for rally games once again without fore filling them.

I remember the good old days of Colin Mcrae 2, I could loose large parts of my day to that game.

Are there any good rally titles on the horizon for the 360?

Colin MaCrae Dirt 2 later this year I would suggest...Sega rally`s an option...already out. I thought CM Dirt was OK once you unlocked the group B stuff & Pikes peak Audi...Too many Baja buggy/truck races in it for me...otherwise it was good.

Apparently there is a second Dirt coming out, I wasn't a fan of the first one but the second may change my opinion.

Link below for details.

Well I am around 35% of the way through the game and the more cars get released the better the game becomes. Its still no CMR2 though

Was CMR2 the one with the training school? I always thought that was quite impressive!

Will Richard Burns Rally for the original Xbox run on a 360?

That was one insanely realistic (and difficult) rally simulation.

Here you go

Can't emphasise enough how fiendishly difficult it is to get right...

Dirt is fecking awesome, have just gone back to it after a year playing other stuff and realised just how addictive it is.

I would say my favourite driving game ever, lost 5 hours on it this afternoon, I have one more acheivement to get and it's complete.

On another note, is anyone up for a PH Pikes Peak challenge? if so post here and we can set it up. Now that they have X-Box live leaderboards for times including a friend filter it would be easy.

My best is 7:28, 2000th(ish) on the leaderboard
