Question

Anyone else got this? Just wondered what other people's views are - Apart from the horrendous slow down I really like it, much prefer it to WRC. Makes a nice filler 'til CMR3 is out

I remember playing V-Rally 1 on my Playstation1 many moons ago - at the time it was the finest rally game I'd ever played and I was totally glued to it until I finished it.

I was totally disappointed with VRALLY2 and haven't even bothered looking at VRALLY3 - will do now you mention it though.

It's much less 'arcadey' than v rally 1 & 2, much more a proper rally 'experience'.
You have to work your way through the 1.6 classes to get picked to join a proper wrc team and drive for the big boys.
The scenery is fantastic, cars handle well, bit more of a 'weighty' feeling than wrc. Damage is excellent. If you can overlook a few 'issues' it's a great game...

On a similar note I saw a video of Colin Macrae3 running the other day and I have to say the weather effects are fantastic. For the first time the car really looks as though its flinging itself through wind and rain and snow - even the wipers 'smear' the snow and rain off the windscreen.

Looking forward to it.

I got it today and after a few runs and many adjustments I have to say its a very likeable game, the actual driving of the car seems far more involved than WRC , graffix very tidy and lots to look at, I feel an addiction coming on, well until CM3

Saw an ad last night for it. Said on PS2 and Gameboy Advance. Erm, just can't imagine it being very good on the gb, not really the right sort of hardware compared to the PS2..

Played it on GBA - and it's by far the best racer on a hand-held!
