If you really want a good rally game, go to www.compuexpert.com and buy
yourself a copy of Rally Championship 2000.  It's a europe-only release so
you have to buy it through them, although there is another place that
imports it. If you can wait, the US release is scheduled for this summer.
Granted, you've got to have a pretty good computer to play the thing, but
it absolutely blows away anything you can get in this country.  It is
absolutely the greatest driving game I've ever seen.  It's not as realistic
as Grand Prix Legends, but then, nothing is.  It's close, though!  I can
send you a bunch of screen shots, or you can get them (and lots more info)
at www.simracingnews.com.  Buy it buy it buy it buy it! Stunning graphics
(raindrops that wash over the windshield the faster you go, rays of light
as you go through the forest, puddles that reflect the sky perfectly,
exhaust fumes that increase as you rev the car farther, and a high degree
of customability), awesome cars, great sound effects, great "feel" to the
cars...spectacular.  Colin McRae rally II is coming out soon, but it
allegedly uses the same graphics and physics engine as Coling McRae Rally
I, so it won't top RC2000.
