Dirt 4

Our analysis

A content-rich package with 50 cars, five locations, a deep career mode, and varied game modes, but it fundamentally fails as the rally simulator it claims to be. Even in sim mode the handling is far too forgiving and arcadey, with cars that stick to the road and refuse to slide, weak force feedback, no VR, repetitive scenery, and a flat pace-note delivery. Fun for arcade fans but a deep disappointment for sim purists, earning a thumbs-down.
