Best rally game on PC or console

Asked for the best and most realistic rally game, most posters named Rally Trophy for PC. Others recommended Mobil 1 Rally Championship for its long stages, Colin McRae Rally 2, Rally Championship 2000 for modern cars, WRC II Extreme on PS2 and Rallisport Challenge for fun rather than realism.

IMO Rallisport Challenge on the Xbox was quite amazing. Fast fun and beautiful. Really fun split screen with a friend (or 3). "Dan" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3e44a142$0$4412$[email hidden]... > Hi. > > What do you guys think is the best most realistic rally game,either on pcor

On console it's WRC 2 Extreme(if only this were on PC) . Rally Trophy is the best on PC.

RC2K on PC, better than RT because you use "modern" cars, well of course if for you Formula 1 is GPL than RT is rally, but if you want "modern" cars, then RC2K is the way to go...good luck finding it though... -- The first ever pinball ezboard !! http://pub7.ezboard.com/bpinball SYS80 : BLK HOLE - HNTD HSE - SPRIT - VOLCNO - PNK PNTHER - DEVLS DARE - RYL FLSH DLX - SPDERMAN - CHRLIE'S NGELS - TX SCTOR - MRS GOW - RBO WARS BALLY : XENN - EGHT BLL - EGHT BLL CHMP - PACMN - SPKEASY 4 - STRKES N SPRES - SPCE INVDERS - FTRE SPA - LADY LCK - PRAGON WILLIAMS : BLCKOUT - CNTACT - ADDMS FAMLY "Dan" <[email hidden]> a �crit dans le message de news: 3e44a142$0$4412$[email hidden]... > Hi. > > What do you guys think is the best most realistic rally game,either on pc or > console. > Ive been out of the scene for a bit and lost touch. > > Im seen some contradivtive reviews for the console rally games,with people > seemingly unable to make a decision on which is best. > > The console ones look fantastic but do they stack upto the pc ones ? > > thanks > >

Hi!. Well, i think Rally Masters on PC is the best one. Its got some wierd physics going on sometimes, but the tracks are better then RT. Otherwise, i like WRC2 which i got today. Awesome tracks!, very challenging, and long. most tracks have taken me around 8minutes to complete, and there are 115 of them(!)

Mobil One Rally is the still best. Long twenty-thirty minute stages, a nice mix of mud, gravel, snow and asphalt and graphically still looks good. The physics feel a little funky, but it still gives a great sensation of speed, and it also has realistic damage. Stay on the road! Excellent pace notes. I imported mine through www.softwarefirst.com . Colin McRae 2 is fun, but the roads are too wide. It's like you're on a highway in spots. OK pacenotes. Graphically pretty. Rally Trophy is the GPL of rally sims. Excellent physics, very demanding to drive, great graphics but too short stages. And absolutely horrendous pace notes. Takes a lot away from this sim. CM3 should be coming this year. We need a rally game to make the most of all the new hardware, and with modern cars.

Hi. What do you guys think is the best most realistic rally game,either on pc or console. Ive been out of the scene for a bit and lost touch. Im seen some contradivtive reviews for the console rally games,with people seemingly unable to make a decision on which is best. The console ones look fantastic but do they stack upto the pc ones ? thanks

Rally Trophy is very good, or if you can find it, I personally like Mobile Rally Championship better... Kevin (aka tlgtr) **** "A GOOD friend will come bail you out of jail... but, a TRUE friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Damn we screwed up!!!!."

Anyone using a Momo Force BRD Speed7 pedal combo with this game?
My fav is Mobil 1 BRC for the PC. I tried MS's Rallisport Challenge and couldn't get the control quite right. Mobil 1 is a couple years old but very good IMHO. The car physics are adequate but not perfect. Other than that: amazing graphics, challenging stages (ranging from about 5mins to 25mins+ from what I've seen), good choice of cars (3 or 4 different classes), and a variety of modes and terrain, and nighttime racing with functional headlights! :). I will check out CMR3 when it comes out; I've never played the CMR games but have heard relatively good things. - Tom shpankey ([email hidden]) wrote: : IMO Rallisport Challenge on the Xbox was quite amazing.

I just love Rally Trophy... Especially the Volvo Amazon! /S
I too like Mobile Rally...Rally Trophy is good, but I like the longer stages in Mobile Ralley.... Kevin (aka tlgtr) **** "A GOOD friend will come bail you out of jail... but, a TRUE friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Damn we screwed up!!!!."
Rally Trophy is great. I downloaded the right-hand drive cockpits, then changed my ACTLABS shifter to fit the left side of my wheel. It's an entirely different kind of flying, and the force-feedback will leave your arms in pain after a couple of stages.

My favorite is CMR2 but I've never played any of the cool cars in Rally Trophy only the cooper that's available in the demo. I've played through CMR2 about 5 or 6 times and I've just picked it back up again. :)
