Chris hates this game, because he loves it so much.
I want to start this review by saying I DESPISE this game.
Not because its bad… oh no!
I hate it because its so damn good.
Let me start from the beginning.
This is the first game EVER that my rig hasnt been able to run comfortably.
This made me sad.
However, this alone I could have handled.
Turns out that this game is so intensive that it was causing the 7900s RAM to overheat massively.
So I bought a huge new cooler for it.
A 35 game has now cost me 70.
Right…its finally working!
Next problem: you simply cant play this game properly with a keyboard.
Everest while being accosted by wild bears.
I like my racing sims.
Why not buy a steering wheel?
A 35 game has now cost me over a ton.
Now, I can finally play the game… And its ruddy fantastic.
Its so good in fact that I begin to wonder how good it would look on my HD TV.
My media center was only packing a measly GeForce 6200, so that wouldnt cut it.
In a moment of drunken madness, I bought another graphics card just to run it on my TV.
So a 35 game has now set me back about 250.
Why cant I control myself?
The reason I cant is thatDirtis absolutely brilliant.
This is a step forward for racing games on the whole.
Graphically, its nothing short of stunning.
This is what racing games have been missing for so long.
This isGTR 2for people that want to actually have fun.
If you like anything with 4 wheels, you oughta buy this game.
After all,Crysisis just around the corner.
