    It's actually quite fun this time. [Issue#78, p.87]

    WRC 2 isn't the best racing game, but it offers a satisfying rally experience.

    It's bloated, cumbersome and little has changed from last year, and in that way bears many parallels to the game itself. However, it's also earnest, uncompromising and serves its purpose well enough, and in that sense it is equally a fitting title.

  1. People may complain about the graphics of this game and it is true that they are not at the top of the racing games nor xbox 360 games in general. But taking into account the recent lack of a World Rally Championship experience in games, this one is glass of water in the desert for WRC fans. You could say that the Dirt series are good rally games but in my opinion they don't fulfill what the Collin McRae series was. The gaming menus don't provide a generally good transition from rally to rally. They should have gone with taking more features from the best racing titles (Forza, GT5, etc) instead of trying to do something new. The racing itself is all you ever expect from a rally game. In the highest difficulty level, you really feel frightened behind the wheel. If you, like me, love the and follow the WRC championship, you will certainly enjoy this game Expand

    I did manage to have fun driving through the career mode and managing my racing team, although it does get repetitive towards the end. My biggest issue is that I could not do this without driving assists, despite playing other driving games with very realistic settings. The game doesn't do a very good job of conveying speed and traction to the driver, lack of force feedback support had probably a lot to do with it. Expand

  3. Recycling the same old SS already included in WRC 2010, then "sell" the new tracks as DLC. Once looking at what the developer is doing, we will notice it's really disappointing and this title is not worth to buy. Expand
