Dirt 1 on pc 👍

Colin McRae Rallye 04 PS2 was my first and last game from this franchise. My father still play it, with Dirt 3 on PS3

Colin Mcrae 2.0 after 2005 and lastly dirt 2

CMR 1

[@mienislav]

Despite DiRT 2 being released in 2009, the graphics even today looks incredible! Codemasters were masters in racing games. So many memories!

[@ryutenmen]

I gave you a like only because Collin McRae Dirt 2 really was a great game, but it doesn't look "incredible"(fucking superlative, we cant say anything without them, are we?). It just look very nice even today.

[@pawnstarrickharrison7225]

@@ryutenmen I highly highly disagree, also explain what you mean by "superlative" because dudes definitely not saying the game looks better than todays time nor is he over exaggerating you need to chill. And honestly ALL of them look really good for their time, Codemasters really had good engines to work with. I don't think you've seen enough game engines cause some of them are definitely budget tight, lol but by NO MEANS does it make it a bad game (some say that bs). And for the love of hardware stop comparing apples to oranges negatively, obviously today's games will be more graphically advanced, doesn't make old hardware instantly bad and ugly.

[@bradypitts2900]

Best in the series imo.

[@ryutenmen]

@@pawnstarrickharrison7225 explain what I mean by superlative? Dude, its in dictionary: "Of the highest order, quality, or degree; surpassing or superior to all others." So, the term "incredible" fits the criteria, isn't it? Didnt your read de context(the first message to whom I replied). Why does your question exists? It's obvious - you dont know the first things, and that's because you didnt bother to read.

[@christianabudinen530]

Dirt 2 was the best… and the first ones are nostalgic… the rest are meh… Dirt 4 and 5 are horrible…

Dirt rally 2.0 is the best rally experience I ever had by far !!!

[@acidspit14]

I guess you haven't played Richard Burns Rally then

[@DecibelAlex]

​@@acidspit14 I guess you haven't played Dirt Rally 2.0 RBR is so overrated. Even with physics and graphics mods it's apparent that it's a 20yr old game. The only good about it is that it's free and it has a lot of custom maps

[@acidspit14]

i played all the games, that's how I'm able to make an assesment. RBR is above all. dirt is an arcade@@DecibelAlex

[@NostalJuegos]

@@acidspit14 Don't smoke weird things bro, Dirt Rally 2.0 isn't arcade at all. And what's wrong if it is? Arcades aren't worse, sometimes are even more fun than simulators, specially elitists simulators like RBR. Sometimes you just want to have fun, and RBR is the complete opposite to have fun playing LMAO.

Am I the only one who as a kid thought Nicky Grist was saying ‘McCrest’? Even when I got a bit older and found out that ‘…crest’ is a normal co-driver call, I still had it in my head that it was still ‘McCrest’ given 90s-2000s Codemasters’ penchant for putting a sneaky little hidden message in their games somewhere. That would have only made a bit of sense if there were more things in the game with ‘Mc-‘ added at the beginning of the word 😂

[@yannicvandijk2722]

Dirt 2 and 3 held up so good!

[@lukasmagnusson6579]

Colin McRae 2.0, Dirt 2 and Dirt Rally 2.0 are the best ones imo, although i enjoyed playing every one of them up until dirt 4

[@adamlach6572]

Colin McRae Rally / DIRT series never made a bad game, at least the big ones were all at least decent (top down mobile was quite good also btw), but i have to say i hold CMR 2.0 in highest regard. For some sick reason i prefer PSX version (i like it's low pixel visuals more), but overall i think of it as just perfect mix of arcade and light sim, with awesome tracks and cars. There are more rally games that i like almost as much like WRC 4 on ps2 (not to mistake with one on ps3), Rally Challenge 2 on OG Xbox, V-Rally 4, DIRT Rally and even Sebastian Loeb Rally Evo - but CMR 2.0 has to be my number one, which is even more funny considering that i think the same about Gran Turismo 2 which is overall my favourite game. And yes i do play every above and many others on daily basis, no nostalgia here, because as a kid i had couple games only.

HUGE differance since 1998 - 2000 to 2002. Dirt 2.0 from 2009 looks good even now. New games are not so better than those from 2, 3, or 5 years ago. Now we need huge computing power to even small changes in graphics. McRae 2000 was my favorite game back than and it aged well
