Doesn't give too many details on what's new other than a more detailed career
mode (which was one of my favorite parts of the original).

"The game will let players race against up to 14 other vehicles"

:-(

Weak, seriously weak.

Online or offline? (stuck at work so I can't go read it for myself) If its
online its a 40% improvement over DTR. If its offline its down by 2. I love
the career mode its the best part of DTR. I'd love to see this be of a good
quality, but I doubt it will be any better than the original.

I dont have a problem with that because at most short tracks, there is only
14 on the track! LOL

A typical dirt A main has 20-26 cars so it would be nice to be able to get
that many. the next question is if they would show up :)

Hopefully, they finally shit-can that Pentium 166/Screamin' 3D era
graphics engine.

It says it is going to use the Difference ? Engine.....
Isn't this the same engine that has been in use since Powerslide?
I would have liked to see a new engine as well as the addition of the
modifieds.
I am still going to buyn this game, and the Hooters game when that comes
out, but it sure looks like Ratbag may have bought into the company motto of
"give the people more of the same."

yeah it well us the DE. I have heard two versions. One is that its the same
old DE2 from DTr/DTRSC. The other is that its the DE3 from the new PS2 WoO
game. The PS2 game does look better than DTR, but its not jaw dropping by
any stretch.

There is no doubt that I'll be getting the USAR game, and DTR2 as well, but
I do hope they are closer to the current Papy sims instead of their
backgrounds. (SCGT for Hooters)
