Well, Rally is good in GT3, but if you want an excellent rally experience buy one of the specialty rally games.
 
rally in gt3 is alright.....but the best rally game is colin mcrae.......colin mcrae 2 was pretty good for pc.....i saw the trailer for colin 3 and it looks crazy!!! u guys should download the trailer for it.....go to gamespot.com......can't wait till it comes out.

peace!
 
According to a friend of mine, which in the "real" world, is a race
car driver (Jason Watt, Danish DTC champ 2002), the feeling of
driving in CMR3 isn't nearly as good as in CMR2. I loved CMR2,
and was really looking forward to the 3rd edition, but his
comment on the feel has kept me from buying it yet. So until I can
get a hands on experience CMR3 is a "not buy" (for me at least)..

Cheers

Personally, I don't like the rally much either, but when I'm bored, I take my 1100 hp Supra rallying. It's hilarious! I never get it out of 3rd gear, but nonetheless it's great fun.

OR - Go buy Burnout 2 : Point of Impact.. Bought that out of
pure desperation or lack of brain or both.. That is actually very
very funny... Sneezing is NOT something you wanna practice
going 160Mph in the wrong direction :D

Ok. Now if you can handle the RGT, then you're my Racing hero.

When I buy Burnout 2, I'll remember that advice.
 
Hey theres nothing wrong with the rallying. I like it. Its much harder than Colin McRae. and more realistic. needless to say, if u never had rallying, there wouldne be a beautifull Saubaru Raly car now would there ?
 
I don't usually do the rallys. I'm not big on drifting and just enjoy road racing more. I like watching rallys though. Those guys are insane!
 
I've just recently dipped into the rally stuff on GT3 arcade mode. I thoroughly enjoy Swiss Alps. What fun. Especially in the 206. It's way better than GT2. It's definitely an add-on and not the meat of the game but I still like it. I might have to get an all rally game now.

I don't really know why they put Rally or F1 in the GT3, neither has anything to do with GT racing.

Yeah they do. GT is a racing sim, which means ALL racing (at least what they can fit on the disc).

Personally I like rally on GT. 62% of all people who hate the rallying on GT only hate it because they suck at it :lol: . This poll was taken a long time ago, just to let you know......

O/T: I also hope they fix the sounds. That is not the way a Viper sounds. The sound of a Viper while your in it makes you want to go fast, very fast. Makes your heart pump, you either start shaking with excitement/enjoyment or in fear. If you mash the gas you find your not in the lane you selected. This is in real life btw.......

So you've driven a Viper before?

Tell me. Do they actually spin out real easily or is it just a rumour?

And as for you Freerider, If they didn't put Rally in it, people would be really peeved if they'd owned GT2 and wanted to see rally in GT3.
Personally I am peeved at rally in Gt3 because they took out all of the good Tracks. And cars. Like the Subaru 360 and Fiat 500R. And pikes Peak hill climb.

PM me if you're curious...

If PD could have used the memory that the rally section took up in GT3 to make the rest of the game better
- Not really, the rally section probably used more room on the DVD than memory/processor usage.

more cars
- They possibly could have added at least ten more cars, more or less depending on how long it took them to make the rally mode.

richer environments
- Also could have been done. Maybe to the level GTConcepts tracks are.


more tracks
- *Maybe* they could have added Autumn Ring in this game, and the mini version of it (mini Grand Valley and R5 too?)


custom paint jobs
- Not too likely

spoiler or body kit modifications available at the tune shop
- As far as i know, the manufacturers don't really like seeing their cars modified that much.

I personally like the rally mode, a lot, and hope that they don't take it out.
After all, everyone has their own preferences. Some people want circuit racing, others rally racing and people like me would like to see drag racing.

They try to cater for all tastes.
 
And i can tell you from experience (real-life) than Nissan Skylines do not understeer at speed, and actually turn quite well.

Near a sharp corner outside of Dad's town, i was going about 120-140km/h and didn't know how sharp the corner was until Dad told me, so i braked a little (had no time to brake fully, as the corner was right in front of me) so i just turned in expecting to go over the centre line, but surprisingly it turned like it was on rails and never even felt like it was going to cross over into the other lane.

And at Christmas when he was down here, we were chasing a 'boy racer' up a hill near this town, and at a hairpin bend he got the car slightly sideways. But that may have been because the front wheel got hooked up on the edge of the road.

If you are wondering, it's a four-wheel drive, 250hp, automatic transmission, four-doored Nissan Skyline GTS-4 (R32), and many refer to it as the mini godzilla. As it is as close as you will get to a GT-R.

It uses the same engine as the GTS-t in Gran Turismo 3, but is faster and easier to control than that one.

colin mcrae 3 dust plooms = :drool:
 
My friend told me that Colin McRae 3 is crap, and i've seen footage of it and it doesn't look to good at all.
 
CMR 3.0 is a step down from number 2 in my opinion...too arcadey for me.
 
Way too arcadey.
The cars seem like they are floating on air.

IMO Gran Turismo 3 is still the best rally simulation out there.
 
I disagree with you there. I really think WRC II outdoes GT3 in rallying. See my review ;) (I'm not breaking the AUP am i by advertising for my review?)
 
Oh, well i haven't played that yet.

I'm hopefully going to rent The Getaway this week sometime. :)
 
Ugh...I hated the Getaway a lot.

But i guess i can't change someone's opinion if they don't like Rallying.

Yes I agree. A great game to buy if you want a small break from GT3. Especially crash mode. Plus fun to race and compete in CRASH mode wit hyour friends....
 
The Getaway is one of the best games i have ever played.

But thanks to my PS2 playing up, i never got to the third mission. :(
