VVV: "We've also stumbled upon the official packshots for WRC3. Intriguingly, however, it seems that different regions will get a different cover car - the packshots for Germany depict a VW Polo R, whereas France will have a Citroen DS3 and the UK will get a classic Mini (well what else?)."
TeamVVV writes: "Hot on the heels of our WRC 5 vs Sebastien Loeb Rally EVO comparison we thought we'd now pit the nine-time world rally champion endorsed game up against WRC 3.
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
are some of my favorites
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.
hopefully there will be a demo before launch.
Why are they bothering, & even more scary is how in the hell are they up to a 3rd sequel? I mean, is this series even selling enough to justify a sequel?
WRC was best off in Evolution Studios (Motorstorm), as there PS2 WRC titles went from a good series with pt 1, to one of the best rally series (as well as racing game series in general), with there last offering in WRC3:Evolution.
I'd love to see Evolution Studios do another WRC. Also, why not give is a spruced up HD version of either just WRC:3, or all 3 redone, improved & Hd'd up & sold on PSN.
