  1. As it's been said before, if an important car isn't there, it's because of licensing issues out of the devs' hands. The DS3 is one of those, so are Renaults and Toyota. Hopefully something will change, but it's probably unlikely. Renault is probably the most likely of the 3 to change, then the DS3, then Toyota

  2. VW came in with a strong car and very strong drivers
    Hyundai came in with a good car and good drivers.

    Hyundai have had a further two years of competitive development for both the car and drivers, so Toyota need to find some talent to join them next year, otherwise they will probably struggle to compete against the others

    Oh jesus. It's like being in the twilight zone sometimes. I'm well aware of the possibility hard snowbanks. The problem is the car has the same, exaggerate reaction to the hard snowbanks as it does to banks in Wales. It's not absorbing any of the impact. We know the behavior is wrong as established here:

    In contrast, they've done a pretty good job in RX when a car bumps into a wall or barrier, it's absorbing the impact. If they would've combined the "soft" snow behavior of Sweden with the collision behavior from RX for the "hard" snow underneath, it would be perfect. Instead what we have is basically a shallow, soft layer over Wales banks.

    The banks are a very different shape to the walls though, you are only hitting the banks with the tyres and lower body, unlike the straight walls which don't allow the cars to transfer the movement vertically

    Going a bit off topic, OX is a channel I'd recommend to any gamer, regardless of whether or not they own or even like xbox. Also, Mike is a genius robot with no emotion. How else would he think to do the GTA V near miss challenge on a super slow moped?

    Yeah I used to love the show when it was inside xbox, still watch it every now and then now that it's on youtube.

  5. I personally can't see it happening. It would create a lot of confusion having it named differently on console and PC. I can't see the team wanting that to happen either, we discussed the name of the game a bit with the guys on our first visit, and they were all fairly set on it not being named dirt 4

  6. 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.

  7. PC Gamer's review of DiRT is a little strange. They've given it a score of 80 which is fair enough, but for some reason have massively slated the handling, saying the cars all feel the same and it is too easy!?

    Very odd criticisms, whilst I understand not everyone will think it is a perfect handling model, you can't argue that its not close
