    Last night it was marked as €49.99 in GAME and €44.99 in Gamestop (Blanchardstown S.C.)

    EDIT: It's worth noting that I didn't like the game, at all (as an opinion piece it's worth it if you're on the fence about buying or not)

    Thanks for that.
    I agree with the review to an extent. The game seems to be very americanised! but i enjoyed playing it none the less. and i think the online mode will be great fun.

    Its on OK game IMO but its not rally game and doesn't deserve the association with CMR.
    Its an off-road racing game in the vain of MotorStorm instead of the point-to-point stages, hill-climbes of old CMR, Rallisport Challenge.

    I downloaded the demo last night, good fun, the point to point stage is pretty hard especially after you play the rallysport challenge side of things. Foot to the floor doesnt get you very far apart from a busted up car ! Online multiplayer comes with the demo too so you can play against other demo'ers.
    There was also one guy called coxy65 or something whipping everyone on every stage by about 20 seconds each time.

    hated the demo, cant believe they've gone down this route with the game, glad i held onto the first game now. fair enough if rallying is like this in the US and that is their target audience but just make a new game series and not trick people into buying something which has no resemblence to the previous ones which bore colin's name. listening to stupid american voices blowing smoke up each other's asses.....seriously.....WTF!! hey i know lets get some half pipes and graffiti walls in there somewhere too :mad:

    I'm looking to pick up this game. I was in Dundrum Town Centre yesterday and it was €54.99 in Game and €49.99 in HMV. Does anyone know where I can pick it up cheaper, somewhere nearby? An Xtra-Vision maybe, or somewhere in town?

    Cheers for the review. I was undecided, but that's made up my mind. What happened to codemasters? They used to make great driving games. I picked up a second hand copy of Grid up a couple of weeks ago and I can't believe how bad it was.
