NoScream~SPARTA~ Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 IN game screen shots, DIRT II uses the modded EGO engine that drove GRID but now even further.. What that means I don't know but the pics look sexy & GRID played sexy... naughty.. As far as I know it's 30th September 09 GRID on OVERDRIVE - watch the video and see what's new ! (tyre physics) Direct link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCwg711c7nc HI RES: http://uk.gamespot.com/xbox360/driving/dir...uk-trailer?hd=1 ALL IN GAME ! Direct link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxJSS0PJkcw some piccies too PREVIEW http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/articles/955/955139p1.html something tells me ROCKY is going to like this one, along with ZENO, FLOYD, MAJESTIC, ME and EVERYONE ! While Dirt was universally well-received by critics, it also took a few hits for not having a robust competitive online multiplayer system where a group of friends could log on and race against one another in real-time. There was multiplayer, yes, but gamers wanted to see their friends racing alongside them. That's all changed in Dirt 2. Now, the new motto is all cars, all tracks, all online. In general, Codemasters is paying a lot more attention to online connectivity in Dirt 2. There's talk of including a system that will alert you in-game when one of your friends beats your lap time on a certain track (good luck, Goldstein). In addition to China, Dirt 2 also takes you to California, Utah, England, Croatia, Malaysia, and other well-known rally locales. So what cars will you be using to tear up nature's pristine virtual environments? Codemasters isn't saying just yet, due to ongoing licensing discussions. But you can bet your rear differential that Subaru will be involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeno~SPARTA~ Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I should try the origianl DIRT again with my xbox360 controller, I couldnt get on with it using the wheel. Looks great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) Holy cow. That looks amazing. I had been wondering what could they do for the next DiRT/GRID because to me the graphics are already "there", the game looks and runs SWEET. Having watched the video though, you can see water effects and lighting/particle effects and tyre physics coming into it. Too cool. Pretty easy to anticipate those effects are going to be a pretty major drain on a PC though - this could be the game to force a lot of upgrades! Who would have thought it would be a car racing game that started to push processing to the max. Thanks for the info, looks ace!

Rocky Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I should try the origianl DIRT again Me too, I got so far then could not progress - damn I wish I did not have a BBQ to go to tonight. How sad is that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoScream~SPARTA~ Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 I missed DIRT,, the main compliant I know of was the lack of real online multi player, you could not race with your friends, only time trial yourself. Amazing the shortsightedness , well there pushing 29th September for this on, which is 16 WEEKS. Roll on & prepare to be challenged..... Viiiper will be back ! Racing p.s. little Birdy told me 8 series Nvidia is great for this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoBoL~SPARTA~ Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 I would say YES, it has a better look to console version, but the play is the same. And when I say it looks better, it's not by much vs the dx10 v 11dx. Now not too sure how the PS3 compares to DX11 or even DX10. But again I think it's extra Hype to buy the game. Reason I say this as I have completed the PS3 version in single player, and too be honest once behind the wheel GFX don't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoBoL~SPARTA~ Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Ohh On that note, It is a very good race game, I used my G25 on the PS3 as I had more control over the feel for the car than a controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
