An YouTube user going by the name of ‘NekusukeN’ has managed to get his/her hands on their copy of ‘World Rally Championship 3 (WRC3)’ for the PS Vita early & has been kind enough to upload some game-play footage of the game in action. The quality of the video isn’t quite up to today’s standards of 720p HD… but considering the lack of footage of the title so far albeit, not much, it’s welcomed with open arms. The footage clearly shows us that the game is running remarkably well & the footage also shows us something that previous shown footage of the title hasn’t quite given us the chance to see, the in-cockpit view. As can be seen in the footage, the cockpit-view is strikingly similar to how it looks on the console versions of the title minus slightly lower graphics detail which is still very impressive considering this is running on a handheld. Overall, this Vita title is looking solid & sure to be a treat for all Vita owners longing for more racing titles to play on their 5″ power-house of a handheld system.

What's particularly interesting here is that both games were developed by the same team – Milestone. Of course Milestone have since lost the WRC license to Kylotonn Games but don't rule them out bidding for it back in the future."
YouTube's member 'nfsking2000' has created an interesting tribute to rally games, in which we get to see the actual evolution of this genre from its MS-DOS days to its current-gen ones.
awesome!!! thanks for making me realize how disgusting this gen was as far as rally games go...
colin mcrae's
richard burns's
WRC's
topgear n64

WRC this gen stuck to its roots even though milestone took over they really improved and i cant wait for WRC4 on the VITA <---- now thats evolution : )
The last great rally game was Colin McRae Rally 2005. Everything after that, went towards the arcade racer market. Now that being said, due to where I live I have never been able to play the WRC series.
Richard Burns Rally is still considered the best rally game ever made by many hardcore rally game fans.
If Milestone could tune its car handling model and polish its visual output, the next version of WRC could help us forget that Codemasters has abandoned the world’s most mesmerizing motorsport.
Looks great except for those trees. I wish they would release this game here in North America.
