DiRT 3 with Kris Meeke

Dangerous · 18 Nov 2010 at 10:21

While WRC Wales Rally GB was on I was invited to Ken Blocks DiRT3 preview day, Kris Meeke was also there so I got my camera out to film him setting a couple of lap times.

The game is amazing and I can't wait for it to be released.

It does look quite good, hopefully it'll be better than Dirt 2 which I thought was just a big bag of Americanised arcade fail.

Can't wait for this

It is reallllly good. I've played it a fair bit and its 60% Rally and they have dropped a lot of the American stuff.

I thought DiRT2 was a great game. Excellent graphics, was even better on the PC so got high hopes for DiRT3. Its looking good, but we've all just been a tad burnt with F1 2010.

so, hmmm wait until we see the game in the hands of gamers this time around. codemasters last racing game was though from Studio Birmingham, DiRT3 is being dealt with by another codemasters studio, lets hope they actually playtest this time around...

F1 2010 still isn't fixed correctly...

Great videos, thanks for posting these up

Oh, I got your email this morning and it was great to hear you had an awesome time.

I'm a massive WRC/Fan and the gameplay is how I'd expect a proper rally car to handle.

One thing for me is the audio; when you attend any Rally you can hear the cars for 2-3 mins before, they fly past for 10 seconds then you hear them for another 3 mins afterwards - Dirt3 captures the audio in such a way you feel like you are there.

That sounds pretty good then.

One of the big games I'm going to get next year, both Dirt 1 and Dirt 2 I have 1000GS in and played the hell out of them. Pretty sure it was going to be early next year but has been pushed back a little if I remember correctly.

I'll try get some more clips of game play uploaded, I think I have Ken Blocks lap..

If the game allows you to play on Ken's fun ground this game will be the greatest Dirt ever.

And the real thing

In the real video as he slides onto the track he hits the wall.....

Looking awesome.

Not fussed by the Gymkhana nads at all, just getting some proper rallying back.

i assume it will be rallycross and stuff as in Dirt 2 it was more like 40% Rally.

I also liked the rallying in Dirt 1 & 2 but found the other stuff a real chore. Kinda ruined the games for me.

More rallying, less big-wheeled jumpy crap.

Will be keeping an eye on this.

Can't wait for this! only just got into playing DiRT2 tbh even though i've had it ages, Black Ops is not really doing it for me so started on DiRT2 and loving it although i agree about the stadium type races being a bit poo, loving the trailblazer events though!

Dangerous · 21 Jan 2011 at 23:29

They have released a little video with me half way through
