Just a little announcement about the upcoming Colin Mcrae Rally 04 game for PS2 and Xbox. Check out the latest info and screens at the new website www.codemasters.com/colinmcrae04
"It's the rally game reinvented by the people who invented the rally game and you're getting it sooner than you think: Colin McRae Rally 04 will launch late September for PlayStation 2 and Xbox.
The September launch is not the only surprise Codemasters has lined up. The engine that drives the series' sublime car handling has been enhanced to a new level of detail.
Previously the car handling employed a steering aid, which had the effect of making the car move around a central pivot point. Now the aid's been removed, effectively taking the stabilisers off, providing for a more professional, realistic and natural handling experience and you'll notice the difference, especially when performing skids and powerslides.
We've also increased the number of terrain surface types from 20 to 34, and tyre types from 10 to 19, to ensure the handling on different surfaces and weather conditions is more accurate than ever before.
Creating a new playing experience for the 6-million-selling series'
fans, the high-end handling is beautifully balanced with the game's rally stages.
Maximising the rally gaming experience that tests both the cars and theplayer's rallying skills, Colin McRae Rally 04 is set to be the rally event of the year when its published by Codemasters for PlayStation 2 and Xbox in late September. Stay in the driving seat with all
