Our friends over at Codemasters sent over a copy of Dirt 3 to have a go at. I enjoy racing games, though on the one hand I was thinking oh, another racing game….charming. I was not expecting to be blown away by any length. Racing games bore me after on...

I have the feet of a mad organist. My pedal set was pushed to one side half an hour ago, but under the desk my soles are still stamping the brake and feathering the throttle. They’re restless. They want to be playing DiRT 3 again.Don’t fret, feet. Onc...

When I reviewed Dirt 2 a year and a half ago I found myself truly impressed with the number of cars, tracks, drivers, race types, etc. present in the game. If cars weren't quite as customizable as I may have liked, they were incredibly fun to drive, a...

There's a good chance I'll never hurtle down the backroads of Finland at more than 100 mph in a BMW Z4. To be honest, I'd be terrified to cross into triple digits on roads so narrow. But to be able to experience such a feat in a safe environment is div...
In Dirt 3 a few scratches tarnish an otherwise impeccable product. It’s a superb racing experience and shouldn’t be missed. While the agent isn’t the best leader through the tour, and the garage is limited in its operation, the solid gameplay, variety...
