  1. So, a video on the OutsideXbox youtube channel (formerly inside xbox when it used to be on the old xbox 360 dashboard) showed Dirt as one of the 7 games that xbox will finally get in 2016. For some reason they suggested that it could be re-branded as dirt 4 for the consoles? I have no idea where they would have got that from, and it seams highly unlikely, especially as dirt rally already has official xbox one box art.


    At least the game is getting some attention for its upcoming release.
    Team VVV called it DiRT 4 as well when talking about the console release.  I mentioned it to them and it was quickly corrected.  Maybe there was an info packet put out from CM with the mistake, or it is being slipped out, and it's the official title?

    It wasn't so slow in fact. Won the Sweden rally regularly in the 60s and 70s, and a few times in Finland and Great Britain. In the Sweden Rally 1975, Blomqvist would have beaten Waldegaard in the Stratos, if not for some electrical problems.
    I guess I didn't know that.  Maybe for the time it was fast or the one here in the US is slow.  Maybe after watching all the others it's seems slow.  I'm sure it's fun to drive in RL

    I actually love this car, it's always fun to see.  

    Standing in the woods and hearing it from a far, kind of catches you off guard since its soo! Loud!  it's a good laugh once it put-puts by slowly :) not sure if I would put it in, maybe for training or very first car to afford. 

  4. I really don't want to get involved in this, but I would like to add something.  

    Im not entirely sure about what the official Prodrive documents are out there for the Subaru, I am sure they are out there, it's why the whole 22b mistake is settled quickly.  Are their official Audi Factory documents for Quattro rally program, designating the S1/E2?  

    I think the confusion is all of these are quotes from interviews and such.  If someone would refer to their Subaru continually as a "2007 Subaru WRX STI" to be technically correct, you would sound a bit weird, instead for convenience they may just shorten it to "my Subie" if your in certain company.  

    I think the S1 or E2 debate falls under the same circumstances, where did the interview take place, for what purpose (promotional?) or right after the driver jumped out of the car?  Lots of different places can change why and when it was called a certain name.  

    I hope this helps

    Cool!
    I know it's been really popular to have the Renulte etc in the game, however as a "wish" it would be nice to play with some of the less common cars as above in a game.  A far fetch would be a Toyota Corolla.  

    Just wishing

  6. Some sites have a team of reviewers to look at the same title and give a combined score and review.  I always enjoy these, much easier to trust the review and more comfortable with the decision I've about to make.  Personally thats what is wrong with many of these reviews.  They are slanted because someone loves rally, loves hard core sims, has no clue what rally is, or whatever perspective.  Personally PCGamer for me has always been a weak source of info.  

    I'm probably late to the game with this, and not wanting to stir some more heat.  I sat back and thought how I make decisions on my purchases.  But I'm a weirdo anyhow, I know.

    Congrats to those that 'won' recognition yesterday!  That was fun to hear.  Also to @evilsmurf , I didn't realize how much you have been doing to fill in for Lee, maybe you will have a future doing this paid :)

    Gossip?  I didn't really hear anything regarding new content (new liveries?) or DLC between now and April, so I'm not going to hold my breath or have any hopes.  

    It was interesting to hear about @kickup messing around with a Porsche in DR, sounds like a curiosity for them to try.  He pretty much shot down the possibility of having that car in any game because of the cost of licensing.  

    So I guess we could start pondering the next title 
    I just listened to the show again to see if I missed any details or gossip. I'm having to play it at the lowest quality (because the internet at work is awful!), I can't quite make out what @KickUp says after he mentions my award: it sounds like "you've got a copy you've already got waiting for you. Congratulations"? Am I hearing that right? 
    It was stuttering on youtube a lot, I got about half way and stopped.  It just got really bad, that I couldn't make out portions of the conversation.  It was also screwed up with the screen ratio too.  

    I think they should set up 2 recording methods.  1 for archive, youtube and one that is live streamed.  Probably with 2 different cameras and computers.  The last couple of live streams have been kind of messed up in some way.  

    I do appreciate their efforts doing this, but for me, I'm going to just watch here for the synopsis.
