Sega Rally Revo - hands on

PC Preview | Sega Rally Revo

For fans of Segas flagship racing series, the following sentence will come as a big relief. The new Sega Rally game feels like a Sega Rally game. We know because weve played it for hours, racing on four different tracks at Sega Racing Studio in Birmingham on both PS3 and Xbox 360. If we sound surprised, or at least relieved, its because up until now we had only been shown what was basically a tech demo of six cars racing around a pretty, but featureless track. It looked alright, but not ... » Read More

Dont get us wrong; we love MotorStorm. But underneath its glossy canyons and impressive mud physics lies a one-track mind (har har). Those looking for a little more depth in their racer need wait until September when Sega Rally Revo will be unleashed to the masses. How does it stack up? Read on, gearheads. Attack deformation The first lap through a course is the easiest. You're presented with flawless, untouched mud and slide across it with relative ease. But then it's time for the second lap. ... » Read More

Not everything gets better with age. Take, for example, that one friend who still somehow thinks its hilarious to drop Napoleon Dynamite quotes in everyday conversation. That fondness for mindless repetition means he's probably going to suck at Sega Rally Revo, a racing game where a path through a particular turn that works great at the beginning of a race could easily spell your undoing by the final lap. This is all thanks to the games most interesting feature: Fully deformable tracks. As ... » Read More

MotorStorm had mud. Lots of it. Mud that squelched when you drove on it and glistened in the sun when you scrubbed away its dry top layer. Well, Sega Rally can beat that. The Sega Rally we saw running on Xbox 360 in London recently has real mud in it. It isn't just a graphical trick - the new Sega Rally streams mud directly off the disc and fills your TV up with it. It's Liquid Crystal Dirt and you'll be seeing a lot more of this technology as Sega licenses it to other developers in the near ... » Read More

Sega Rally Revo makes mud beautiful

PC Preview | Sega Rally Revo

If you're a fan of splashing cars sideways through thick mud then you should be keeping an eye on this beast. These five new screens (hit the Images tab above for the rest), which Sega stresses are in-game, demonstrate some impressive detail in both the cars and the surrounding vegetation, and a whole lot of mud ... » Read More

Sega Rally on track

PC Preview | Sega Rally Revo

Sega Rally's arcade dirt-racing action has always been one of Sega's strongest franchises, and now it's heading to the land of next-gen technology. We caught up with Sega at E3 last week for a backstage showcase of PS3 monster Sega Rally Revo's incredible track-deforming features. There's no next-gen horsepower spared here. We saw how the tires on your car are modeled right down to the grooves in the rubber, which, depending on the type of tire you're using, will cut into the track in a ... » Read More
