[QUOTE="Dr_Niles_Crane"]Here are some of my own thoughts on this game demo: 1). It seems to be trying to appeal to a different audience than those who perhaps played the old Colin McRea rally games in years gone by. By this I mean it is a bit more extreme sports in approach such as the events and actual music and other factors. Things like the back ground music, flares going on screen, the chit chat between drivers. 2). Very impresive graphics, it looks like a very well presented game with many things going on around the car and the car itself. These things I would include the fire works, track side spectators, other cars on timed trial races, damage modling and the likes. Those are my thoughts so far, I may add more about handling when I have put more time in to give the game a fair chance under different conditions.bitemeslippy

I agree with your first statement but also I would say rally racing in general is tryint to appeal to the more extreme audience lately. Check it out on the X Games this year? I don't normally like watching rally but that was pretty sweet.

Yeah, it seems the good old motorsports are changing. I mean the British Touring Car Championship they all use the same car now I think, which is a big change from the road cars that were changed to racing spec (like Honda Civic, Vauxhall Vectra etc, now its a shell that I think they just put their own customer engines in, it was a lot less over taking to me anyway). WRC seems to have gone downhill as well really, in my opinion, it is shown less frequently on TV for instance and there are fewer manufacturers taking part and less names in the sport.

Thanks, I am a fan of the show so it came to me when making my account name. I like the look of the tools you can get from Da Vinci, that seems to be adding more variation to the gameplay which was some criticism the first game got.

Yeah the currency system sounds like it could be interesting. I hope it is fairly well done but I expect it will be as the game seems to be looking fantastic so far, I just hope my expectations are not being set too high.

Cool stuff, I recently got Mass Effect so I think I will wait for the new DLC to come out and then get cracking on with getting into the game.

Gametrailers have just posted up a new video of Assassins Creed 2 gameplay from Games Com in Germany.

Link

Personally, I feel this game is looking very good. I have only played Assasins Creed 1 for a short while after borrowing it from a friend, the gameplay seemed very good. This looks very nice visually and I am hoping the gameplay is like the first but with some improvements if the developer finds any. I am looking at pre-ordering this game.

So any other views on this game? A friend of mine is very hyped for it and it has started to get me interested in it.

With a recent Dragon Age collectors edition thread inspiring this topic, I was wandering what it was about collectors editions of games you like? The only collectors editions I own are the Halo 3 Heroic edition (or whichever the tin with the extra disk is, not the one with the helmet) and Gears of War. I like a nice book to have a look at after playing the games so the Gears of War one was quite nice. I am quite interested in the Assassins Creed II and Forza Motorport 3 collectors editions but will see if I get them or not.

Looks quite nice, I have started to like the look of some of these limited edition game of late. With Dragon Age I will wait and see as I know very little about the game. Is this a 2010 release?

Star Wars Jedi Knight is a series I would like to see brought to XBox Live Arcade or even full titles from the FPS/action genre.
