    I got this game this morning, and Ive been pretty much playing it all day. And all I can say is its superb, in my opinion its the best racer on the Xbox. The graphics are absolutely excellent along with the sound effects. Everything about the game just seems really stylish, out of races, for example the menus and the area where you select what you wish to do just looks great. And in races you can choose from a number of different views, personally I like going into the dashboard view (inside the car). Some games dont include this view, or if they do its hard to see where your going. But DiRT has got it just right, everything inside the car looks good and you can see where you are going very well and adds more atmosphere to the game.

    The gameplay it self is superb. The handling is good and you soon get used to it. There is a variety of different race types, such as rallying, time trials and also the X-Games . There is also a very good choice of cars which you can buy and modify the looks of. There is plenty to do with 100 events you can complete. Even after you have completed all of the events, there is a very strong multiplayer system. Ive played quite a few games online and its really fun and it will keep you interested.

    This game is an excellent racer and I recommend it for anyone who likes racing games. If you liked the first DiRT you will definitely love this one!

    This games seems to have changed into an american style of rally and less of what the game was originally about.

    A massive upset for a fan who has had every cm game.

    The cars are almost uncontrollable and more about fireworks and glitz than real rallying.

    the graphics are very good though.

    I hope this helps.........

  • No split-screen in a racing game!? Very poor.

    What kind of self-respecting racing game doesn't have split-screen!? I've no idea what the developers were thinking...

    If it weren't for this glaring omission, I might well have given this game an average score - but it is a real show stopper in my opinion.

    Nothing further to add - I sent it straight back!

  • Dirt 2 - 2 repetitive

    Rated - 3.5 stars

    A good quality game, graphics are good, especially the damage engine which truely gives it a realistic feel.

    Gets repetitive too quickly, if you put the difficulty on 'Serious' it wont take you too long to complete this.

    Enjoyable all the same!

    Absolutly brilliant! Have enjoyed all of it! Best racing game i have played in a long time, One annoying thing is online where kids just crash into you so that they can win! Other from that game plays well, good graphics and a fun atomsphere!

    Easy achievments aswell so if you like that its an easy 1k if you like doing online stuff! If not a good game for 800 gamerscore!
