Hi people I'm looking for a new rally game to play - has anybody got any suggestions ?
When is it going to be released in the USA? "Kyle Roberts" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > > "niloc" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:Xk4Y7.713$[email hidden]... > > Hi people > > > > I'm looking for a new rally game to play - has anybody got anysuggestions

Agreed, Rally Trophy is pretty darn awesome! I got the full version, and I'm pretty happy with it. The interface is boring as hell though, and you can't tweak much on the car. The physics are great, but the co-driver is terrrribly annoying. Also, I'd much prefer to drive NEW rally cars.. I still play Colin McRae Rally 2 more than Rally Trophy.. -- Mike Beauchamp http://mikebeauchamp.com "Kyle Roberts" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > > "niloc" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:Xk4Y7.713$[email hidden]... > > Hi people > > > > I'm looking for a new rally game to play - has anybody got any suggestions > ? > > Rally Trophy!

There's also Rally Championship Xtreme, the hard-to-find successor to (Mobil 1) Rally Championship, which I loved. "niloc" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:okeY7.1002$[email hidden]...

I've been playing RC Xtreme a lot lately, sure is a beautiful game, and fun to see the parts fall of my car (which happens a lot to me). Seems ok, but no force feedback, and poor joystick setup (too little deadzone). I have yet to see Trophy, gonna download the demo right now (watching all this rally today on SV is getting my blood up!)
I just got RC Xtreme and Rally Trophy last week. My first impressions were that RC Xtreme is pretty much an arcadish type game. It's quite pretty and the car damage is cool. Rally Trophy is more of a sim' also with excellent graphics, but I'm not 100% convinced about the physics. I think Rally Masters feels more realistic to me though I haven't played any of these games for extended periods...
No FF? The original RC had one of the better FF implementations--when you hit the dreaded black ice, the steering would go absolutely dead, just like the real thing. Scary. I just finished a full championship season (the 6-race BRC) in RC...but I had to enable all the cheats to get above 20th place. That's okay; RC cheats, too (competitors' times are bogus).

It's already available in your part of the world, we in the colonies have to wait another week or so. <sigh> ...Klinn
