Codemasters have announced today that the ps3 version of Dirt will be delayed. The ps3 version will not be arriving anywhere before October 5. The PC and xbox360 version shall be arriving at retail shelves on June 22.
Steam has slashed 75% off of several Codemasters' racing titles including GRID, FUEL, DiRT, DiRT 2 and ToCA Race Driver 3 along with a bundle containing all five titles as part of its weekend deal promotion.
The first DiRT title was released just before McRae's horribly premature passing, and saw Codemasters essentially rip everything up and start again, giving the franchise a face-lift fit for the next-generation. It highlighted the tone of a series moving increasingly further from the realistic, 'pure' brand of rallying in the earlier games to a more arcade-orientated, thrill-seeking approach. Whether seduced by the bright-lights of, for example, Project Gotham Racing, or whether Codemasters were just seeking change for the sake of change lest creative stagnation take hold, DiRT 2 (yes the strange lower case 'I' is intentional) represents the consolidation of this new approach.
Colin McRae: Dirt 2 (Dirt 2 outside of Europe) is a racing game scheduled to be released in September 2009, and is the sequel to Colin McRae: Dirt. This is the first game in the McRae series after Colin's death. It was announced on 19 November 2008 and will feature the late Colin McRae as well as Ken Block and Travis Pastrana.
Atleast they didn't delay the 360 version, YAY!
I was going to get this for PS3, figuring they would come out around the same time.
Guess I will pick it up for my 360 after all.
I wonder why?
You have some major major releases scheduled for around then including GTAIV. I wanted to get this game but one game a month is pretty much my max. I have a feeling I'll lose enough life to GTAIV.
im sure it will be the same game just.................later !
