    This once used to be a solid rally series when Colin McRae was involved in it. It has morphed into a NFS: Shift/NFS: Prostreet/Project Gotham type game.

    Absolutely. I love rally racing and Dirt 2 had hardly any traditional rally stages. Don't get me wrong I like driving the big trucks and rally X, but I just wish they would focus on rallying.

    That trailer made it look like they were focusing on rally stages to me. I know its not actual gameplay but that's the feel I got from it. Rally is the only mode I played in dirt 2.

    I hope they add in some kind of garage where you can add/remove things from your vehicle (kinda like the older NFS games).

    That's the only thing I found disappointing from DiRT 2.
