Richard Burns Rally Goes Gold On PC
SCi Entertainment Group today announced that its anticipated PC version of rally sim, RICHARD BURNS RALLY, has today gone gold and will be released in UK, Germany and France on September 3rd, with other territories to follow shortly after.
RICHARD BURNS RALLY is the first true rally simulation game, bringing the most realistic and exhilarating rally experience to all major gaming platforms. This true to life rallying requires tactics, intelligence and perseverance as well as speed, aggression and risk taking.
Adding a new level of realism, RICHARD BURNS RALLY includes:
• Unparalleled engine simulation modelled on genuine automotive information and individual car specs
• Simulated car handling for a truly authentic feel
• Pace notes authored by Robert Reid
• Unique three dimensional track generation system, incorporating; potholes, rocks, puddles and ruts, with realistic depth and effects on the track and the cars
• Truly dynamic and random weather all effecting the track and the car
• Accurate car damage from engine fires and fuel leaks to brake loss and bodywork damage
• Interactive 'real-time' service park with component based repair system
• AI opponents with varying personalities and styles, resulting in different race results and crashes
• Realistic spectators, who cheer as you speed past, sometimes stray onto the track, but will also help roll your car back if you venture off-road
• Helicopter rescues from un-salvageable accidents
Considering SCi bought the Rally Championship franchise - you know it's gonna be better. Though they did already release one rally game that sucked balls - but I think that was just a thing to get the franchise going.
Oh, and I'm actualy looking forward to the new Carmageddon they've got slated for 2005.

What about the US release date?

I think they could have made a game purely out of that.
They did, it was called Carmageddon.

Be sure to remind us when you get cancer so we can make fun of you."
What in the hell kind of fucked up cancer do you have?

Xpand Rally is definitely less of a simulation than RBR. Just watching any videos from RBR will show you how incredible it really is:

(Chirdonhead is particularly nice)
http://www.bhmotorsports.com/preview/RBR is a nice short preview of the physics.

If the day has finally come when you have to explain how "Dick Burns" relates to penicillin in a humorous fashion then the internet is already dead.
My comedy quota for the day is made. Thanks!

If you check out the review in the Morning Preview section below, you'll see that it does indeed have a "helmet cam"...

I assume it has an incar view then? Third person driving games blow.

bizarre thread already
Strango, you may not know this, but look if you look in the mirror, and you'd see that your Dick Burns.
Sorry, I didn't realize you were talking about someone else. I'm just a youngster and wasn't aware of the other "Dick Burns".
I apologize, I thought you were making fun of Richard. But no need to start name calling, it was a misunderstanding.

I wasn't aware anyone I refered to there had cancer but then I also wasn't aware that penicillin was used to treat cancer either, so what do I know. Thanks Dr. Strango! You humorless twerp.

What about Xpand Rally? I wonder how these two will compare.
Wonderful news! I really want to play this game. First rally game in years that I'm truly interested 
dunno, i like most game types...but rally games never got much of my attention, probably too much realism.
