AZAZEL Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 (edited) COMING: May 24th, 2011 PUBLISHER: Codemasters All around the world, day and night, sun, rain and snow – DiRT® 3™ gets set to tear up 2011 with the most content ever featured in the acclaimed racing series. Receiving its worldwide broadcast television premiere during this year’s Summer X Games coverage on ESPN channels, Codemasters® today released the official DiRT 3 trailer video in HD. Revealing the first details on the biggest, content-rich racer ever to roar out of Codemasters Studios. The DiRT 3 video opens with WRC driver Ken Block leading the field as his iconic Monster Energy-branded Ford Fiesta rally car kicks up a dust storm in a sundried Kenyan rally stage. Seamlessly hurtling into a torrential downpour on a muddy Finnish lakeside course, Block then jumps into a Norwegian stage that’s thick with snow. Racing onto tarmac, a Ford RS200 classic rallycross car races into view and goes head-to-head with Block and a Mitsubishi Evo X in rallycross spec in the hills above Monaco. The pace then changes as man and machine demonstrates what the very best drivers can do with a rally car in a Gymkhana-style performance. Set in the open environment of London’s disused Battersea Power Station, this skills showpiece delivers a new layer of depth to the DiRT series’ variety of action-sports racing. Coming 2011, DiRT 3 will boast more cars, more locations, more routes and more events than any other game in the series, including over 50 rally cars representing the very best from five decades of the sport. With more than double the track content of 2009’s hit, DiRT 3 will see players start at the top as a professional driver, with a top-flight career in competitive off-road racing complimented by the opportunity to express themselves in Gymkhana-style showpiece driving events. As players race to elevate their global standing, DiRT 3 delivers mud, sweat and gears world over: from the intense weather-beaten rally stages of Europe, Africa and the US, to executing performance driving showcases and career challenges where car control is pushed to spectacular limits. DiRT 3 is now in development at Codemasters Studios for a 2011 release for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft®, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and PC Games For Windows® LIVE.

Creed Bratton Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 One of few racing games I enjoy. Dirt 2 was awesome. I'm looking forward to this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA3Freak-2001 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 They might as well call it Ken Block Rally 2010! As much as I enjoyed Dirt2 I still yearn for the Colin McRae Rally days so to me the series ended with the death of Mr McRae. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has definitely become something completely different than what it started out as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_bungle Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Is that really the official logo? Looks very similar to the Monster Energy drink logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyGanteks Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Originality. I liked 2nd, not enough to buy it, but i might pick this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnero Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Aah Why is the logo changed (in the vid)? From the trailer, it looks good and all. I've been playing Dirt2 since it was out and I still play it now... It's just so intense and fast paced, let's hope this one has that too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ats. Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Looks interesting. Although, it's nothing about McRae anymore. But obviously the logo in the topic isn't official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radltzx Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Yeah that is not the official logo. This is: I read (and as you can probably tell from the trailer) that they're going to be concentrating a bit more on rally this time, ofcourse there's still going to be buggies, trucks and all that stuff. I really loved rally on dirt2, too bad there wasn't much rallying to do. I hope they'll add a buttload of it it this time.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuareg Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Is that really the official logo? Looks very similar to the Monster Energy drink logo. Not sure if you're serious or just taking the piss, but Dirt2 was sponsored by monster Awesome trailer. I liked how it changed from hardcore into a more mellow feel. I loved 2 and will be looking forward to this. Although 2 did get a bit repetitive over time, but i still enjoyed it more than any other driving game.

Cojage Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Trailer looks awesome. Dirt 2 was alright, but it was an obvious arcade rallygame unfortunately. A little too arcade. But other than that it was fun, except that it only had a handful tracks and cars. So they should focus on more content now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA3Freak-2001 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 If the trailer is anything to go by hopefully we are going to get some weather effects like snow and wet weather which will be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AreXi Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Is that really the official logo? Looks very similar to the Monster Energy drink logo. Yeah, that's where I was getting at I was like "Did they really sell out that bad?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brown Sugar Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 OH YES!! I can't wait for this dirt 2 was absolutely brilliant so if they're saying this is gonna better then it should be one of the best racing games ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seddo Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Loved both of the past two games but there were far to many X games, buggy and Baja events in the second one. I'm hoping for a lot more standard rallying events and more tracks apart from 3 tracks with each track having 3 routes. This is getting the new engine as well isn't it that the F1 game is using? should look quality if it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmeto 2 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Awesome game. I can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZAZEL Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 (edited) Is that really the official logo? No, and sorry for the confusion this has lead to. The logo in this topic is my own design, as I found the official one quite dull. I don't think they've released any official screenshots yet, but once I stumble across some, I'll be sure to add them to the main post. Although, it's nothing about McRae anymore. I haven't seen any mention of Colin McRae in regards to DiRT3, at all. It seems that the game is just called "DiRT3" and nothing more. EDIT: I added a few screenshots from the trailer, and one of a posing Ken Block. Not sure how official that one is, but it found it quite amusing.

anus Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I really hope they go realistic as possible this time. Something more realistic than RBR even. If they want the arcade racer people to buy it, they could simply add realism options so people can choose how realistic they want it to be. Like in GTR2. I mean we really have enough and more arcade racers, a realistic one would be nice, especially a rallying game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is getting the new engine as well isn't it that the F1 game is using? should look quality if it does. i agree about the fact that in dirt 2 there wasn't enough just normal rallying, dirt 3 should have less of that sh*t and focus on more standard rallying and the f1 game is using the same engine as dirt 2 and grid just looked at the pics in the first post and is that an audi quattro in the first pic if so i can't wait to play dirt 3 driving the legendary audi quattro Edited August 6, 2010 by gta3kuruma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good move to bring some Group B goodness to the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
