Sega Rally Revo

O.K. Let's get this out of the way ... I am a driving game FREAK! I love to play driving games and I will give anything a shot on pretty much any system. I was a HUGE Sega Rally fan on the Dreamcast and I dropped my fair shair of coinage into the arcade version to feed a small family for a month! I was looking forward to playing this after hearing about the terain deformation, seeing the screen shots and what not.<br><br>Drop the game in and you are presented with a really nice arcade menu presentation ... load up a quick race and you will notice the game looks really good. Kudo's on some nice looking graphics and environments. Take a few laps around the track and win a few races and you are thinking that we have a winner. But, that's all you get.<br><br>Although, at first galnce the game has it all you notice the shortcomings (I will not say flaws). There are too few tracks, too few cars, too little customization and suprisingly ... No wheel support?!?!?! DUDE! I will, however, give it props becuaes it does what it does very well. I just wish there was a little more of what it does.<br><br>Oddly enough though, I am kicking myself for not shelling out $20 when I had it in my possesion over the Holidays and it was on sale because it IS worth having, just not for full retail. $20 - $30 is a good investment range to consider IMHO.<br><br>If you are into arcade racers, this game delivers. Just don't go into it looking for a buffet, because this game delivers a pure fast food experience. Small selection, small portion sizes and leaves you wanting a little more for a little less!<br><br>

Ok, 1st off this game looks good, especially for a Sega game. The car models look nice, but the rest is average. The track deforming they have been talking about is a nice touch but since the game is more arcade (floaty, horrible controls) that feature is weak.<br><br>I couldn't recommend this as a purchase to anyone. DiRT is far better and if you want multi-player online racing then go and get the one of the Rallisport challenge games for the original Xbox, those are more fun then this game.<br><br>This game could have used more time, like till middle of next year to get things figured out.

In a world full of racers that focus on learning to drive the cars instead of actual racing, SRR is very nice change of pace. I play a lot of online racers, and it always amazes me to see 3/4 of the field off the track in the first corner. Whats fun about that? SRR lets you race, plan and simple. No over the top arcade stunts ala Burnout, no lame attempts at "realistic driving" (besides, what realistic about holding a piece of plastic in your living room)? SRR gets you doing something you love, racing, and removes the gimmicks. This game is fun the moment you start. Great graphics, great spot on control, and outstanding online racing. You will no longer have to worry about some griefer trying to send you off the track so he can beat you. Do yourself a favor, give SRR a try and you will see how racing should be, fun. But if you like trying to fight with a piece of plastic, in an attempt to fool yourself into thinking your playing a real life simulation...this is not the game for you.

Sega needs to lean from the producers of DIRT!!! Do not waste your time renting this one. I literally played it for about 15 mins and it was so bad I put it right back in the mail! Don't walk away from this game run!!!!!!

Camera angles in this game are realy bad and AI is on rails. Car graphics are decent but all other graphics are porly done.

Ok well this is a good game for a 5 year old or someone who is not really interested in a realistic rally game. If you are like myself and have loved the Rallisport Championship games for Xbox and the new Dirt for 360 you will probably be dissappointed with the phisics and dynamics of this game. The graphics are ok... but its impossible to do damage to your car, you can pretty much just raid the course and turn on a dime, it gets very boring after a couple races. You can rent it but if you are like me it will be back in the mail the same day :)

the only thing that i could compliment this game on is the graphics, the game play is terrible, i feel like i am playing some arcade game that came out 15 years ago. Save yourself the time and avoid the game. Anybody who gave this game a good review knows nothing about racing games. Rent Forza 2 and you will be happier.

NO, this game is NOT realistic. NO it doesn't make sense that you slide around the track...<br><br>Kind of like an ARCADE game?<br><br>YES!<br><br>Playing Sega Rally Revo really gives me a sense of nostalgia. I remember playing the original with my friend split-screen on PC.<br><br>People say that there is no grip or fun involved in this game, but just the sensory stimulus of my controller constantly vibrating when i'm hitting the tiremarks in dirt, telling me THIS is where i'm going to get the best handling and the highest top speed, is an amazing touch and, i believe, makes the game.<br><br>People can argue, but the game only sold for 50$ with preorder, and it's definatly worth a rent.<br><br>Don't get this if you're expecting a Rallisport Challenge (original xbox game) or a Dirt. This game is hardly the same genre, and to compare them is apples to oranges.<br><br>Likewise, definatly don't expect another Forza or PGR4. Even though the graphics are very nice, that does not make this game like any of them.<br><br>This is what makes the game so good. I loved Rallisport, liked Dirt, love Forza, and love PGR4.<br><br>This game is the only one of its kind though, and i sincerely enjoy it.
