Here we got the chance to take one around the Avelsbachring crossover circuit, a two-lane track where drivers go head-to-head around the same course, only in separate lanes.

Besides, wrecking a car is a lot of fun! And while racing buggies is a laugh too, it wouldn't be a Colin McRae game if we didn't bomb along a narrow dirt track in an Impreza. Naturally, the difficulty can be toned down to make the racing experience more arcade-y but, in our opinion, having a completely realistic damage model is essential if DiRT is to remain faithful to its roots.

However, hit a boulder at full pelt and you could easily bend or, worse still, break the steering column, meaning either the car continually pulls to the side for the remainder of the race or, worse case scenario, you're out of the running completely. Lose a front wing or body panel by overdoing it into a corner and the damage is largely cosmetic so you won't really notice any difference in the handling. Indeed, DiRT's sophisticated damage system means that every knock, nudge and crunch really does make a difference. That's especially the case during the CORRS buggy race, because while you're free to deviate off course if you corner poorly, the trackside grass hides some very nasty rocks that can seriously screw up your car. Even if you do manage to knock them off course, they're quick to regain their position, so it's best to steer clear of trouble. You see, like many other racers, your opponents in DiRT almost always come off better if you shunt them - nine times out of ten your backend will slip out while they keep on going. Treat your car like this and chances are it'll conk out halfway around the track.ДЄs for the race itself, we jostled with half a dozen other buggies around the track, taking the inside line to get ahead and staying well clear of the opposition for fear of behind rammed off the road. Now cars are fast and responsive, reacting to the slightest touch of the analogue stick without sliding out at the every corner. However, the big improvement is with the handling, which before was twitchy and over-sensitive. For starters, it runs a whole lot smoother - still not at 60 frames per second, but that's not so much of a hardship considering how detailed everything on the track is. Interestingly, we played exactly the same course a couple of months ago and we're happy to report this new version is considerably better than before. Here a handful of buggies bomb it around a loose gravel circuit littered with sweeping bends and straights plagued by moguls. Four were available in the demo game we played, with the CORR challenge up first.

Rally World - the last of the three main game modes - is essentially a series of one-off races that enable players to get in some practice, either against the clock in one of the time trials or taking on all-comers in the meatier Rally Raid competitions. So, back to the bits of the game we did play. Multiplayer and Championship modes were also unavailable in the version of the game we saw, although Codies promises the latter will offer rally drivers of all skill levels 'the ultimate challenge'. The events are laid out in a career ladder, which sees players competing across all the events to work their way up to the top of their game. These are as diverse as they are plentiful, with hill climb races sitting alongside classic rallying, in anything from standard four-wheel drive off-roaders to big rigs, buggies and more.
