Rally Masters I have Mobil1, Colin Mcrae 1 & 2 and Rally Masters. RM has great graphics, great physics (get the patch) and loads of gameplay modes. Its a great package. Mobil1 has amazing stages (some of them take 20 or so minutes) and great graphics but the physics don't really convince.

CMR2, basically a Codemasters "arcadey side of things" rally game...Mobil 1 Rally, hard as nails, needs a couple of fixes but ultimately the most satisfying, Rally Masters more of a RallyCross game with equally, er, unusual car handling. If you want the toughest, it has to be Mibil 1. If you want ease to get in and have a spin 'n' giggle, go with CMR2. Rally Masters I can't find a HUGE amount of good in, but there are those that swear by it. HTH -- Colin ICQ 25485061 Dennis A.

I have had all three also and I have to agree with the above. Mobil 1 RC is the one to get, IMO. Forget RM, but CM2.0 is pretty good if you are looking for a more fun rally game.

Software Ect. has Rally Masters for $9.99 Personally, I'd say get both. M1RC should be down to $17.95 or around that level. Check compuexpert.com. I think they have it in their bargain section. RM is more "fun" driving as it emphasizes powerslides around the corners, and a lot of those super-special competitions. RC, on the other hand, have longer stages and more realistic terrain. I own both and I enjoy both (and CMR1). --KC

Software Ect. has Rally Masters for $9.99 RC is the one if you want realistic-length stages (ie up to 20 minutes) and superb scenery. And it's recently come out on budget in the UK (a tenner). Unfortunately, the physics are dodgy unless you spend a fair amount of time fiddling with configuration files. RM is the one if you want lots of options and better physics out of the box[1] - the stages are a bit short, as in most rally games, but it's probably my favourite as it's... convincing. To me, anyway - and I'm the one playing it, so no-one else matters :-) CMR2.0 is the most arcadey - short stages, fantasy tracks, typical bloody Codemasters requirement to finish well in every rally to progress in the championship - but it's fun if you want a quick blast, and it's really pretty respectable in the handling department. [1] well, sort of - you'll want a patch, but there isn't the need for detailed hacking that there is in RC. -- David.
