PS3 and 360 versions of DiRT 2 hit by major bug

Experiencing some loading 'hangups' in Colin McRae: DiRT 2? Well if you are, you're not alone.

Since the game's release earlier this week on Xbox 360 and PS3, a rather odd issue with the game has arisen during post-race loading.

(gasp)

U mean to tell me the Console War was simply a conspiracy to pull a veil over the eyes of all gamers blinding them from the real truth?

That both versions of Dirt 2 are equally affected by the same bug?!?!?!?

Panthers5766d ago

Well I heard it happens on 360 more!!!!

The bug isn't exclusive to the PS3? What has the world come to?

Pete have you not got some 'shooting' to do ? Hows the porn industry in this harsh economic climate ?

MmaFanQc5766d ago

and ive at least 6-7hours on it without any problems....btw my friend also own it and played it a lot also with no problems.

Sarcasm5766d ago

I'm playing the 360 version with no issues.

Eddie201015766d ago

I have it on PS3 and I haven't had a single problem, I've played it for about 6 or 7 hours. Great game.

DelbertGrady5765d ago (Edited 5765d ago )

I've played for about 3 hours with the 360 version. No probs. Awesome game. Hated Dirt 1 & GRID but this is so much fun!

The best rally games of all time

What were the genre’s greatest entries ever?

Yi-Long3515d ago

For me, Rallisport Challenge 2 (Xbox) without a doubt. Amazing gameplay, and fantastic track-design and visuals.

the first dirt game was such a surprise :)

waltyftm3515d ago

Sega rally 2 on the Dreamcast was my favourite, still is the greatest imo.

I'm not impressed with much in terms of racing this gen. Graphics have been really raised racently, and it wasn't by the "two kings" (GT and Forza) in racing. Shift 2 and the upcoming Project Cars are now DOMINATING racing games graphically, GT5 and Forza 4/H do not even compare. But physics and gameplay-wise, most everything's been "off" aside from a select few. My short list would be.

#1 GT5. It's still rocking everybody in terms of gameplay and variety. It's got every kind of 4 wheeled racing almost from Karts to F1 and everything in between. GT needs to step it up graphically now though. Forza is the LEAST of their worries there.

#2 Motorstorm Pacific Rift. Just the #1 most fun and intense arcade/off-road racer ever made or ever will be made. SOOOOOO much variety compared to the bare bones (but great) first game, and a way better racing game than the 3rd game which was more like Split-Second than MotorStorm in THIS Motorstorm Fan's opinion.

#3 F1 Championship Edition. This PS3 exclusive launch game is imho still the best F1 game this gen in terms of the racing.

#4 FerrariChallenge/SuperCar Challenge. Alot of people havn't heard about these, they got VERY little attention. They sucked because not alot of cars, but it's a fact that System 3 put into these PS3 exclusives (they were on Wii too, but they weren't as advanced) the most advanced, realistic physics to ever be in a console racer. The same physics they put into their PC sim. Good graphics for the time too. Very under-rated.

#5 Shift 2. This is only here because I think graphically, it's a sneak peek at the next level in racing sim graphics. Project Cars is improving on that. But Shift 2 has HORRIBLE physics and I disliked playing it. If Project Cars can get the physics more in line than Shift 2, and have enough of a garage to have the variety in the racing while keeping the online field fairly even like GT5 does, it will truly be the next level of racing sims, and something may actually pull me away from GT5, which nothing has based on gameplay.

Also: WipeOut HD- awesome game, awesome value, it's expansion makes it an even better value, top notch quality.
