It's perhaps symbolic that Codemasters has included Colin McRae's old co-driver in for the first time in one of its rally games since Colin McRae Rally 2005, because Dirt 4 very much feels like a return to the good old days of the series.

Besides last year's DiRT Rally, there hasn't been a proper DiRT game in years. It's good to see the "4th" entry finally make an appearance, although can it improve upon the well received DiRT Rally and other racers like Forza and Gran Turismo?
When Codemasters decided to make a fourth DiRT game, it was obvious that it was going to have to be a game that appealed to a wide audience. The stellar DiRT Rally was well received for its authenticity, but the DiRT games before that had middle of the ground vehicle handling that mixed realism and...
Over the years, and I mean a lot of years (back to Test Drive in 1990), I have played dozens of driving games over many types of terrain. My first delving into Codemasters was Grid.

It's not enough to detract from how accomplished Dirt 4 is where it matters, when you're tearing from point to point and manhandling any one of its fine selection of cars. It is enough, though, to make you miss the focus of its predecessor, and Dirt 4 falls short of the greatness of Dirt Rally.
This harks back to the days when rally simulation was fun. Complete courses , in various disciplines. The handling feels real and responsive, graphics are as real as ever and some nice damage engines doing their work should you fail to concentrate on one of the endless turns and twists that make up...
I bought it because the ads said it was good and it is
