Looks technically quite well but i am not sure that i will enjoy the game.

What i cant understand though is why no PC release ?

Sp much effort into making the graphics on the faces look so "real" when the rest of the body has poor looking textures (from the footage i saw)

Sounds like a plan

The advert for DIRT looks very nice, but I wonder if it's just a rehash of 1 and 2, preferred the early CMc rally games myself.

Apparently 60% of the career mode in Dirt3 is rally ?

I have preloaded it on Steam first time i have ever paid full price for a game on Steam (and my list now says 170 games lol!) IIRC my copy unlocks tomorrow night.

£26.99 preorder price was too cheap to ignore, especially when it also gave me a free copy of Dirt2 to gift away to a friend

Still not convinced on this NOIR title for some reason.

I'm now on case 8 and been playing for 3 hrs so it's a big game,

It's a brilliant game you need to take the whole story in otherwise you won't get anywhere

Well designed game

Managed a few hours on it last night. Brilliant game

Just done my first detective case

@sticky graphics are good on the clothing and such I think the preview videos didn't do it justice.

The lad is playing as I speak (well for the last 4 hours), it looks good apart from all the driving around which looks a bit of a pain LOL

Picked this up Wednesday and had a fair few hours on it and currently on the third disc, the detailing is superb, even nice to see Rockstar securing the rights to real car names and images on this one, the hidden cars are interesting too as the majority of them are Concept cars from that era and some of them look a bit mad lol. The storyline is long and keeps you busy, lots of twist and turns in it so not had a chance to free roam the game map yet, not that you could explore the whole map as it is huge! It's got to be on par with GTA IV for size and that's before expansion packs are released!

All in all I'm very impressed with it and can't wait for the expansion stories to come.

Well i played it for an hour. Maybe i was just lacking concentration, but it's a game where you can't really have things going on around you. Seems a little repetitive already. Will give it another bash over the next few days. Hoping it changes up and finishes shortly then i can make use of the £35 trade-in.
