This is a really great game for some frantic arcade action. Yes the cars don't damage but does anyone really care when the racing action is this hectic. Plus it's an ARCADE game not a simulation!

The main thing Sega Rally has going for it that alot of other driving games lack is that it's FAST. With the camera angle slung down low at the front of the car, the speed is especially immense and it's thrilling stuff especially when you're jostling for position with the other cars on the track. The graphics in my opinion are lovely with beautifully drawn cars, lush environments and typical bold Sega colours. The only negatives are some occasional screen tearing when the camera viewpoint is from behind the car but it doesn't ruin the experience too much and other viewpoints virtually eradicate this problem anyway. Also you can't tweak the suspension, gearing etc like you could on the Sega Dreamcast version which is a bit of a backwards step considering this is the most powerful… more »

Also you can't tweak the suspension, gearing etc like you could on the Sega Dreamcast version which is a bit of a backwards step considering this is the most powerful generation of consoles yet. The soundtrack isn't really anything special either but it's still an improvement from the norm nowadays which seems to be to stick on a load of grating rock tracks from obscure bands i.e Motorstorm.

Overall then I'd say this is well worth picking up and I personally always find myself returning to it for a blast as its just great arcade fun. Highly recommended.
