  • Summary: (Known as "Sega Rally" in the UK/EU) With dynamically deformable terrain, proprietary next-generation graphics, realistic physics, and competitive bumper-to-bumper racing, Sega Rally Revo is a high-tempo driving experience that is every racing fan's driving fantasy. Vehicle selection affects driving strategy in Sega Rally Revo, as race course surfaces dynamically deform upon repeated contact with vehicle tires and changing weather effects. Sega Rally Revo features a variety of fully deformable surfaces, from gravel-littered tracks and smooth tarmac roads, to snow-covered mountain passes. This means no two laps will be the same, and drivers can skillfully lower their lap times as they hurtle their chosen world-renowned rally vehicles down photo-realistic courses only made possible on next-generation hardware. Driving skills are also tested by Sega Rally Revo's advanced AI which allows NPC drivers to dynamically adapt their driving style to the varied racing surfaces. Players can enjoy a comprehensive single-player campaign as they travel the globe racing the best drivers in the world. The game also features online capabilities, with multiplayer splitscreen modes offering an extremely competitive rally experience against drivers around the world. [Sega]… Expand

    The best arcade rally game you can buy - what did you expect? [Nov 2007, p.80]

    No, Revo's not bursting with originality or play options, but it's a solid racer that feels completely different from the competition. [Dec 2007, p.104]

    Without all of the environmental additions, Sega Rally Revo is an average racer at best.

    A highly underrated game, this is an arcade purist's dream and a successful rebirth of a classic franchise. Its most common reason for low scoring reviews is its lack of features, but as a hardcore arcade game, that is entirely NORMAL. Trust me, if you want to win every challenge in this game you'll get more than your money's worth :) A game like this depends more on difficulty and track design to ensure longevity, and it will have you pulling your hair out if you lack patience. It's all about memorizing every curve, just as it's always been. I doubt that anybody who has given this game a low score has a love for Sega Rally or a respect for its pedigree... In truth, this is the best Sega Rally yet.… Expand

    Given that Sega Rally's gameplay, career progression, and unlock system haven't evolved one bit since 1995, it takes some kind of greedy nerve to charge full retail price for this incredibly shallow, dated game. Only the most diehard (delusional?) Sega Rally fans will get any sort of enjoyment out of this. Everyone else looking to play in the dirt should get FlatOut 2 or, well, DiRT.… Expand

    I'm shocked at all the good reviews, this is a disgrace to the Sega Rally name in my opinion. The track design is poor at best. None of them are on the same level as the brilliant Desert, Forest and Mountain tracks as seen in Sega Rally 1. They seem like they've been designed by work experience boys. The handling is rubbish. There's no feedback and its far too light. The ruts your car makes in the track are a nice idea but combined with light handling, its just too damn tricky. The graphics are solid. They look last-gen in my opinion though. Bright colours, basic car models and dreadful enviroments.… Expand
