Rally man Ken Block becomes DiRT2 “face”

dirt2a3

Codemasters has signed Subaru rally driver Ken Block to be a “key motorsport athlete” for Colin McRae: DiRT 2.

“Colin McRae is one of the main reasons that I am a rally driver,” said Block.

“He is a big inspiration to me and the way I drive my rally car.”

There’s a video of Block talking about his relationship with McRae and his involvement in the game on GamersHell.

The game’s out for all platforms in September.

Ken Block’s shit awful game with a pole through the middle of the car and more tearing than a paper shredding festival that mysteriously wins prizes : 2 surely ?

It’s rubbish either way.

I love Dirt 1. The Australian tracks, especially, are amazing. And the driving model feels a lot better once you start driving really aggressively (like you should in a rally race).

@tenthousandgothsonacid,

Yup. How Codemasters gets away with central-pivot vehicle physics in the seventh, HD generation I do not know. I am dreading the official F1 game……
