I just bought DiRT 3 Complete Edition for the Xbox 360 and I absolutely love it! If anyone still plays this game, PM me and we can play. Now, I'm relatively new to the game series so I'm not the most experienced driver. Not yet anyway.

Thanks!

Too bad I'm on PS3. I'm down to play this with anyone who wants to race. I haven't played in so long.
 
I have this to. you know, there are some things I don't like about dirt 3 like not being able to race every car on every track like Dirt 2 and the fact that the tracks aren't that long, but, the graphics and feel of the environments is dead on. When it's rainy, you can almost feel the rain and gloominess. You can almost smell the coal and oil at the Smelter, Aspen FEELS bitterly cold. So, I must say, that's bonus points in my book.
 
@AOS- I would have bought it on PS3, but Gamestop only had the Complete edition for the 360.

@SuperShouden: I agree with you 100% with that post. I love the graphics, physics, sound, textures of the road, menu music, etc. I love everything about this game.
 
I just want to know how long are the rally stages in Dirt 3 and if there's any serious rallying at all, I keep hearing that serious rallying only makes like 10% of the game while 90% is drifting and stupid X-games. I tried Dirt 2 a few hours ago and while the gameplay is ok, physics are just way too arcade and the rally stages are too short. I just want a rally game! Where can I find it?!

90% my arse. There's plenty of rally events and a whole load of new classes - 60's, 70's & 80's cars, Group B, 90's (Group A), Open (Rally America cars), and Pro (WRC). Oh and don't forget the Super 2000s. They sound awesome.

Plus, each discipline has its own "World Tour", so you've got a big rally series there.

Another thing. Everyone seems to forget that the first DiRT expanded to include as many off-road motorsports as possible. Coincidentally, this is what McRae did himself, with the Dakar and the expansion of rally into America.

Yeah, that car list is awesome and the sounds seem to be a big improvement over Dirt 2. I'm still on the fence. From what I've seen, Dirt 3 has great gameplay but It still seems to be focused on the ''cool'' and ''dope'' kind of actions, like you get rewarded for doing arcadey stuff. WRC looks more appealing to me, at least on the ''simulation'' side.
