...from IGN...seriously now?

I find VGC to be the best reviewing site out there.

Remember, IGN suck... but there is probably some truth in that, the only review they have got truly wrong is that Football Manager review last year

Poor Rol...

very

This is not surprize. The Dirt games have always sucked, regardless of platform

It IS that bad. If it wasn't for the Colin Mcrae/ DIRT name and wasn't by such a well known publisher, it would definitely be considered shovelware. It is very much reminiscent of Off road extreme by Popcorn arcade. The presentation is awful, the races are all too similar and boring . The controls are abysmal. You can just never predict whether your car will go straight or just spin put of control, even on a straight. The A.I is stupid too. When they are in front they just pootle along but as soon as you catch them up your car appears to be transformed into a shopping trolley with butter on the wheels so the handling becomes abysmal. The graphics are terrible. The cars look totally cartoony. Seen better on the N64. They look like they have been drawn by a 5 year old with a crayon. Colin Mcrae would be turning in his grave, having his name associated with this travesty of a game. Having seen a review of the PS3 game in Gamesmaster i have to say dirt 2's only similarity to the HD games is in name only. It was lucky to get 4 in my opinion.

Yeah, it looked pretty bad, as many of you have said.

I have no interest in Dirt 2 at all, but a 3.5 for graphics is the biggest hyperbole I've seen on IGN yet.

Check out the latest gameplay videos at IGN, it really doesn't look that bad. It looks about on par with the prettier PS2 racers, which would be a 7.0 in my opinion graphics wise.

yes, it really is that bad. i just played it for a couple of minutes, but that was enough.

the graphics are bad, there are always only 4 cars in the races and STILL the game has framerate issues.

there are bad version of multiplatform games on wii, but this has to be one of the worst.it doesn't have anything to do with the "real" dirt 2. none of the features or the gameplay is there.
