Anyone tried it yet ?

Strangely they have the 22b in Steel blue ??

Blurred vision after impact, trees shake if you hit them, and leaves fall off

Quite a few decent cars in it too, looking at the screenshots

Im still into Richard Burns Rally at the moment tho, feel it has the edge on CM04

but then its on my PC, and I have my steering wheel, unlike CM04 on the Xbox where I only have my std controller

Why cant someone make a decent steering wheel for the xbox !!

I didn't even know until yesterday that there was 'another' Colin McRae rally out.

I automatically assumed because of the short release period between CMR 3 & 4 that it would be a while before the next one....

Richard Burns rally has to be the most 'realistic' of the rally games to date , have you tried playing CMR4 straight after Richard Burns.... makes CMR seem very very easy

Tried the demo, just looked like CMR4.1, won't be buying, it's just a rehash to take on RBR..

*Sonic*

Cheers Hank, I may just try the demo to see how it compares

I havent tried playing them back to back, as RBR is on my PC with a half decent steering wheel, and CM04 is on the Xbox with naff controller, so its too difficult to compare them

Im just about to borrow RBR for the Xbox, so I can then compare them side by side, but I still reckon RBR is the better of the two

and anyway its quite amusing to hear RB telling you to be careful as your in a 300bhp car

Pity no-one keeps reminding me of that when I get in my real car

HankScorpio

Let us know how you get on.

In the demo, when you're outside the car, the engine/exhaust noise get's quieter, I think that's what ruined it for me...

I have bought all 4 CMR so far since PS1, but wont be buying the 5th one - I tried the PC demo and apart from better graphics theres nothing new.

Need to try RBR when I get chance.

*Sonic*

well I have a few results in

been playing CM04 & RBR on the xbox today, and on the PC

CM05 Demo wouldnt run on my pc

CM04 far easier than RBR on the xbox (with std controller)
CM04 far easier than RBR on the PC (with Logitech MOMO FF steering wheel)

RBR far better on the PC with a wheel, than on the xbox, and graphically better too

Hello

Probably not appropriate, but came across it a few moments ago, so there must be some fate going on:

That's harsh!

RBR on the PC with my MOMO wheel absolutely rocks but it is v hard.
If you want a proper rally sim, get RBR, if you want a arcade game get CMR.

I assume the only events you can do in CMR5 are the Paris - Dakar and Le Mans

RBR is just awesome imo So realistic.
