I thought it was poor. What the point in a rally game with no co-driver?

I think it is just because it is a demo not the finished game. Apparently they had colin plus loads of drivers and co drivers in helping with the development of the game.

I agree it is crap without pace notes but fingers crossed.

The pace notes ARE in the full game. None of the stages you play in the demo are 'proper' rally stages. Ones a hill climb (Evo), ones a Crossover (Scoob) and the Buggy one.

Championship mode will be where its at. Lets just hope that you can avoid having a yank co-driver

I`ve got high hopes for this game, I dont wanna be dissapointed. From what I`ve seen it certainly looks good, especially the damage.

Found it quite enjoyable although the hill climb cars felt a bit too grippy considering it was a gravelly/dusty stage.

Found it for a good price here...

Got this pre-ordered, thought the demo was great, especially with the steering wheel.

Forza next week and this the week after

I'll wait till it's in the bargain bins. Typical Codemasters effort.
Whoopee it's got a good damage model so what, I tend to try not to crash when playing a driving game otherwise you can't complete it

This is a Colin McRae game, I think you have to crash a lot to complete it.

Not just that if you braked hard you came to a instant stop, needs a bit more travel etc.

But it is a work in progress hopefully it'll be better in the full game.
