@mighty: There are very narrow streets. With hedges on both sides so you can’t see anything coming around the corner.

And a way to improve the game: Make the steering more realistic. Cars don’t turn in the middle.

Yep, you are right airdom. While it was called DiRT here in the US, Colin’s name was all over the manual and whatnot. Jeremy McGrath mentioned it a bit too, if i recall correctly (been a while since i have played it).

Speaking of, I’ve never been to England. Tell me, are the streets in the back country that skinny? In the game you had about four inches on each side of your car! =>

Yeah, I was a bit wtf’ed by the name too. I really liked DiRT (though I liked Sega Rally even more, funny me).

The first game was Colin McRae:DiRT in Europe (possibly elsewhere) where we know who Colin was, it would be a bit odd to keep using the name though.

They are not really going to use the guy’s name in the game right? the first game wasnt Colin McRae: DiRT…it was just DIRT. the poor guy is dead.

Don’t know how they could top DiRT. It was a fantastic game. Still, I hope they do! =D
