Update: September 28, 2005
It's been four years since Richard Burns won the 2001 World Rally Championship but he's still the UK's head honcho when it comes to rally driving. Under his tutelage, attend the Rally School in order to learn the ways and means to winning rally races, virtual style. Once familiar with the driving techniques, sit in one of eight officially licensed Rally cars and tackle 36 tracks around the world which reflect the reality of harsh roads and uncompromising conditions. Released over a year ago in Europe, Richard Burns Rally thrills NTSC rally racing fiends with a yen for realism and tight-gripped control. Motor down a road and listen to the roar of the engine as it growls and goes through rattling death throes as choked out by a hard driving charger behind the wheel. Bumps and rocks on the road will send the car undulating while weather effects provide different conditions to drive through. New to the Japanese PS2 version of Richard Burns Rally is the ability to skip training and barrel into Rally Season immediately for better or worse. A beginner mode is also built in for tyros.
