Dirt and Filth never looked so good. Started playing with low expectations and this game proved itself. High PC Reqs!
Graphics/Physics: 9.5 - Dirty and filthy have never looked so good. Graphics are fantastic and extremely realistic for racing standards. Sometimes a bit too much bloom or glare.
Sound: 9 - Sound quality is great and has realisitic value. Rich quality in the car sounds and impacts.
Environment/Maps: 8 - Maps are at times a little rigid with the sharp turns, but most of the maps have great quality in the which adds to the fun factor.
Game Engine/Scripting: 7 - Requires an uncanny amount of PC horsepower, unless you have one top notch system it may be hard to run. Otherwise, Best in series as far as engine by Codemasters, may not be TOCA but it beats it out anyways in my book. Tends to go nuts with the frame rates randomly, even in the menu.
Interface: 9 - Cars have a floaty feeling to them. I didn't expect to have this much fun with dirt rally racing or off-road, lets just say I was wrong with my expectations. This game is great.
-----------------------------------------------
Overall: 8.5 - Dirt and Filth have never looked so good. I started playing with low expectations and this game proved itself worthy. I was expecting this to be worse that the TOCA series, but I thought it was actually better. Dirt and Off-road rally racing turned out to be quite alot of fun. The handling of every car did seem to be a bit floaty but I only had problems on a few tracks with it. Occassionally I did get annoyed with a particular track or two, specifically the 2nd of Tier 1, so early in the game for one of this challange. Game requires and unusual amount of PC horsepower, but if you have it the game lots of fun and certainly worth buying.
