Sony delivers one of the best-looking, best-playing rally car games for the PlayStation with the Codemasters-developed Colin McRae Rally. Players must pick from 11 world rally cars and play for the best times on 48 courses in 8 countries, including New Zealand, Greece, and the United Kingdom. Racers encounter mud, snow, and gravel--all of which collects on cars as each race goes on. The elements can also inflict damage on your vehicle, which adds to the challenge.
A British codriver guides players through runs, while the rally school can help beginners with their skills. There's even a two-player option that can be used with single rally, championship, and time-trial modes.
Control in this game is great, despite the varying track surfaces and weather conditions, and players even have to manage courses at night. Luckily, gear ratios, tires, brakes, and suspension can be modified to suit any and all changes. While we won't go as far as to say this game beats the classic Gran Turismo, we do believe that McRae ultimately gives GT a run for the money. --Robb Guido
