    The original Dirt was a fantastic game. It had great driving physics, graphics, and a slick presentation, all of which conspired to create one of my favorite racing games of all time. Dirt 2 eclipses its predecessor on every front, and packages it in a modern, accessible package that race fans of any gaming pedigree are sure to enjoy.

    There are so many courses, cars and race types in DiRT 2 that it's almost overwhelming to look at your world map. At one point I had almost 30 unlocked, un-played events just waiting to be tackled. It's a dense game with a lot to do, and you'll want to do it all.

    A solid racing experience being far too "extreme" for its own good. [Oct 2009, p.72]

    DiRT2 by Codemasters is the loveliest pure travel experience for PS3 since thatgamecompany's Flower. It's immense, sublime, spectacularly well presented & masterfully paced. For best results, switch off the HUD, bring the camera down low & put something blissful & relentless (eg: Caribou). Hats off to the team at Codemasters for matching the intensity & polish of Evolution's Motorstorm: Pacific Rift in a more traditional offroad package!… Expand

    Awesome Game. + Many Cars, Race against celebritys, win cups, good handeling, long playtime, create your own racing style by adjusting your car, funny names - Low Quality graphics, online racing is not really good. Over all it's definitly a good game, i bought the 3 last month, but Dirt 2 is still my favorite. Nice game, low price. Carreer finishing play : 10 houres.… Expand
