DiRT Demo On Xbox Live

May 27, 2007 in Demo comments 9

Get ready to get dirty. Publisher/developer Codemasters has launched the Colin McRae: DiRT playable demo, now available to download from Xbox Live Marketplace for the Xbox 360.

DiRT takes gamers off-road in a multitude of mud-splattered races, and the demo delivers three events to experience right now. There are Crossover, Hill Climb, and C.O.R.R. (Championship Off-Road Racing) events in the Xbox 360 demo.

The first event is a Crossover race with players competing against Colin McRae himself. Players and McRae will battle in a pair of Subaru Impreza WRX STI spec Cs. Then, with nine other racers aggressively competing for position, gamers will compete in a C.O.R.R. competition in V8 650hp buggies at the Bark River Off Road Raceway, Michigan. Next, the Xbox 360 demo takes players for a race to the skies with a Hill Climb event. Churning gravel in a Mitsubishi Evo IX, players race the final 1000 feet of Windy Point in Arizona.

The DiRT demo is available now on the Xbox Live Marketplace. The full game will be available for the Xbox 360 and PC in mid-June. DiRT will carry an ESRB rating of E for Everyone. A PS3 version is slated for a later release date.

    I'm 50/50 about DiRT. I'm not a huge fan of rally, but I love off-road racing. Hopefully the demo will sort out my views. ^^

      *shrug*, to look cool I guess. Looks better than "dirt" or "DIRT". The lower case i gives it a bit of zazz.

    This demo was released a couple days ago.

    I don't find it anywhere near as fun as MotorStorm, which a lot of poeple have compared this game to.

    I tried the demo at a friends house this weekend (PC version). The UI menu style is soooooo so sexy. This game is so not meant for the PC with just the keyboard. The visuals were just mind blowing. On the replay after you finish racing there's some parts that make you think "am I watching myself play or an actual racing video?". I'd like to see what it's like with a controller on the PC but if it's smooth I'm so down for getting it.

    I really enjoyed playing this demo, much better than the disappointing Forza 2 demo I played recently.

    I think this game is a great step up in the Colin McRae series.

    Also in next generation games. The graphics are outstanding.
