Default DIRT demo is out!

You can now download the demo for your Xbox 360 or PC.

Ive been playing the 360 version and my, am I impressed. Great graphics, great sound effects, more driving camera angles then youll ever need (theres actually two behind the wheel cameras). Presentation and gameplay are top notch. I recommend this to any off road racing fan. Download it! Discuss.

ok, just tried it and just deleted it

graphics look amazing but that's all that i liked about it

it felt more like driving a fwd car rather than an awd car (impreza & evo) and what is up with that stupid guy talking in the menus ?!?!? so annoying

^ I agree with everything you said. It looks great and I like the way the menus look but I hate the guy talking. Loading times seemed to be a bit long too.

The cars don't feel right either, not sure why yet as I have only played it for a couple of minutes so I will play it a little more and figure it out. My first impression is; looks great but they need to improve the driving aspect.

yeah Travis needs to shut the fuck up, but everything else i really enjoyed, not sure if i will buy the full version. but i still need to play around with the demo some more. though the buggy i would of thought to be easier to slide around, and the WRX and EVO felt a bit more arcade-ish to me.

Spent about 5 minutes setting up the wheel and other video options(set to "ultra" and 1280x800)

Game starts and all I see is a white screen. Great demo! :x
