colin mcrae rally 2 and superbike 2001
I have only played the demo for colin mcrae 2, but it's rallying definately beats the gt series. It is much more realistic. There is awesome damage to be done to the car, your back windshield can be busted and flapping in the wind while you race. The physics are unbelievable. And you race actual rally stages, not laps around a track. Racing in the snow is great. one of the best parts of the game is racing with the interior view, with dash, steering wheel, roll cage, and driver all animated. it really adds alot to the feeling when you are all clostrophobic with a small range of view drifting the car at high speeds. The sounds are also great. the engine noises are realistic, the exhaust spatters and shootes flames when your revs drop. And from the inside you can here the chassis creaking and obviously being stressed.
colin mcrae 3 is in developement now for ps2 and pc. Codemasters, the developer, says the car models are going to use 16 times more polygons than the previous game. Everything is photorealistic. codemasters is a british company working closely with the racing team, so everything is sure to be perfect.
HAHAHAHAHA looooong post
anyway i listed all of those things because i hope gt maybe uses some of these ideas in upcoming games. I really hope for an accurate dash for each individual car, that would be the best.
Ummm superbike 2001 is the best motorcycle racing game ive evre seen. i have no idea why electronic arts hasnt brought it to ps2 yet, but they definately should.
doing wheelies at 170mph on a ducati is a great feeling. they have all real teams and all realworld tracks. nurburgring germany is fun.
