0 WRC 2010


It’s that time of year again when we get all the updates of last year’s games. This used to be exclusive to sports games like FIFA and Madden but now rally games have gotten in on the act with shiny new editions every year. The trouble with this is that more often than not very little changes from year to year. This was the case with Colin McRae and while it had some improvements over last year’s effort, it wasn’t enough to really set the two games apart.

WRC 10 also makes a return this year with some enhancements, most importantly the online play. Obviously Colin had online compatibility this year too, although it should be noted that it only supports a maximum of eight players while WRC can handle up to 16. One benefit WRC has over its rival is the official license, which gives it a greater air of realism despite the more arcade like feel to the actual driving.

This though, means that it’s much more forgiving when it comes to smashing the crap out of your chosen vehicle, with even the most knackered of cars being able to limp across the finish line. This arcade-esque experience certainly paves the way for more thrills and spills as you go hurtling down the straights at crazy speeds. The impressive draw distance only adds to the excitement, as the scenery is unveiled far ahead.
