DIRT: Colin McRae Off Road Demo Up
By Shawn on Thursday, May 24th, 2007 at 9:57 AM PST In Codemasters, Computer, Microsoft
For those of you looking to try out the dust lined roads of the latest rally sport game in the Colin McRae series, Filefront is now hosting a PC demo. I’ve played a number of the rally games in the past, including Sega’s Rally Sport Challenge and earlier Colin McRae titles and it never ceases to amaze just how much particle physics is involved in modeling the dirty, muddy back roads portrayed in these titles.
The change up this time is that the title is not strictly about competition rally racing but off road havok in general. The game hits shelves on June 19th so if you like the demo you won’t have long to wait.
Wonder what the systems specs are like?

got dirt installed. hopeing that being just a tad below it would still at least play at the lowest settings. .. …
NOPE , i cant even get to a title screen
pops up with ” your graphics card don’t support version 3.0 sharers ”
so for all of you people out there wondering why your lower end cards not supported.. BAM.. there is your answer.
oh and go ahead and try and make fun of me for being stupid and buying a game that stated it wouldn’t run on my machine.
