Dirt 2 for 5€ on Steam.
Worth it? I'm only interested in plain ol' rallies.
I wonder what kind of controller you are using. Because with my wheel(ECCI 7000) I find it hard turn through corners without meticulously applying the brake and counter steering very fast. This game's handling is simply too delicate for me. I know it's rally, but the sliding of the car seems over exaggerated. I dunno, maybe it's because I'm coming right off of F1 2010, where that's a different beast altogether?
I own the PS3 and PC versions. I am running the PC version on Win7 x64, so far I've successfully used the automatically installed version of Games for Windows live to make an ID, and raced regularly within DiRT2 without a single issue. Save file not yet corrupted.Game's real cheap on Steam 'cause they can't sell it otherwise. Console version is better than PC version, since PC version has Games for Windows Live, the spawn of hideous evil that doesn't work on 64-bit systems and corrupts the Autosave file, making it impossible to play this game unless you use the old version of GFWL, which knocks out the possibility of Multiplayer for any GFWL game.
While the game itself is very well detailed, there has been no information on progress of fixing this very bad bug. The same bug also affects FUEL (a rather awesome game if it's not crashing out) and F1 2010.
And no, there will be no backing down to 32-bit Windows. Modern gaming systems have more than 4GB RAM, which 32-bit OS can not run with.
