With DiRT 3, Codemasters has reached what surely must be a pinnacle for this venerable series. If there is anything significant missing from this version, I don’t know what it is.

DiRT 3 isn't the type of game where you can hold down the "go button" and expect to win a race. Well, I take that back.

Review

It has the capability to convert people who aren't particularly interested in rally racing to addicts who need just one more race or Gymkhana event. It would seem that Codemasters' love for the sport is infectious.

DiRT 3 is not a perfect game and a couple of patches will likely fix my biggest issues with the PC port, but none of the problems will really matter too much for rally fans that have been disappointed in the last few years' worth of rally game releases.

Review

It's got the looks, the style, the superb sense of speed, and spot-on handling model that blurs the line between sim and arcade. It also introduces Gymkhana and with it excellent potential for players becoming addicted to going for new high scores. What it doesn't do is innovate in the racing game genre, generally making refinements where needed rather than redefining what's expected in a modern racer.

Review

The racing action is peerless, with Codemasters' racers still clearly in a class of their own. But the style has perhaps swung too far from the Americanised festival atmosphere and it's much more sober as a result. Still absolutely worth your money, mind.

Codemasters has succeeded in curating another superlative festival of driving. It's a package more inclusive than any of its predecessors, shot through with the quiet innovations that have defined the studio's more recent efforts. With its off-road events celebrating the series' past and Gymkhana presenting a potentially bright new future, it's another great racing game from an outfit that's proving itself to be a master of its craft.

Review

Codemasters has made a good name for itself with this franchise's heart-pounding racing and arresting graphics – which are even more striking with the inclusion of night driving and falling snow. The renewed focus on rally racing and the addition of Gymkhana keeps it in good shape, even as it pares down some of its previously interesting career aspects.

As expected Codemasters continues to perfect their off-road racing craft as DiRT 3 claims another podium victory.

Review

It's a superb racing experience and shouldn't be missed. While the agent isn't the best leader through the tour, and the garage is limited in its operation, the solid gameplay, variety of tracks and events, and overall fun factor make this a terrific game.

It’s time well spent; the skills you’ll learn screeching around earth movers, you’ll be surprised to find, are often transferable back into the standard track racing experience.

With only a little over a year and a half between DiRT 3 and its predecessor, it was feared a simple update with a couple cosmetic changes and basta.

Dirt 3, thankfully, should restore their faith. Mainly because the game's underlying engine (which also powers the Formula One franchise) is so good.

This is a game that ticks all the expected boxes for both the series itself and the publisher, which has come to dominate this corner of the market. It’s fast. It’s pretty. It’s got cars that go vroom.
