It\'s floaty & loose and it just feels horrible. The only good thing I can say about it is the damage model. The graphics are not very impressive and are totally outclassed by WRC3, going by the playable versions at PSExperience and the handling is also better in WRC3.

Codemasters suck!!!

Down with Codemasters thats what I say :bounce

CMR2>CMR1>CMR4>CMR4

Anyway I\'m going with WRC3 with it\'s 100+ rally courses, over 45 rally cars to drive, superior handling and physics etc, etc.

How\'s WRC3\'s graphics, better than 2?

The framerate does slow down occasionally though and the handling is very strange. The demo features a wet track and it is very difficult to control the car ( too much understeer).

Not much has changed since the first Collin McRae.

In terms of innovation
Collin McRae = the Tomb raider of rally games.

CMR04 demo. I can\'t wait for a WRC3 demo to come out because I am sure it will be a better game.
