While I haven’t played a Colin McRae Rally game for a few years, I expected to be able to make some steady progress in the early stages of the career mode. After many hours play I’m still struggling near the beginning of the career mode, and have drifted over to the other game modes to get my rallying fix. There is one big problem preventing you from doing this though: the game is damn hard. Eventually you’ll unlock and drive the 4WD, Super 2WD, RWD, 4×4, Classic, Special cars and Group B classes. The career mode is clearly where you’re intended to spend most of your time, and the developers have put a lot into it, with many stages to your development as a rally driver.

You’ve got the career mode, which offers up what seems like a huge number of stages (game stages, not rally stages) and takes you through a rally driver’s entire career championship mode, which puts you into a single rally championship, taking place over multiple rallies and stages time trial for competing against the clock and single rally events for when you don’t feel like playing through the career mode or a championship. Seemingly absent on launch day, Colin McRae Rally 2005 plus arrived a few days later, but can it compete with the best on the handheld?Īs you might expect, the game is pretty much a port of the game that appeared on PC, PlayStation 2 and Xbox.

Ridge Racer, Wipeout Pure, TOCA Race Driver 2 and Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition all shone quite brightly at the console’s launch, but Codemasters has a second PSP racer up its sleeve. This isn’t a problem if there’s some quality among them, and thankfully for the PSP there is.


If you were to randomly pick a PSP title from the shelf in your local games retailer there’d be a good chance that you’d walk away with a racing game.
