It looks and plays decently enough, but the top down is just so antiquated. It admittedly works a bit better for a rally game where the frequent turns reduce your visibility, but it still makes the whole thing feel like you're playing with an RC car.
Game Review - originally written by Spinner 8
WRC is a series of worldwide rally races, not unlike various other auto races! These involve the drivers driving along roads and highways and such, and the one with the fastest time is the victor. You won’t see any other cars in this game here, since all the cars start at one- or two-minute intervals. Just watch out for the stupid cars that are crashed on the roads.
You can pick your setup before each race in this game, selecting your transmission and tires and stuff. You’ve got the A button for your low gear, and B for your high. B should be used sparingly, since it doesn’t work as well as A at a full stop, and you can get seriously out of control when you’re using it, especially if you’re using slick tires in snow like an idiot. Use left and right to steer. Oh, and if you hit stuff too much, your car explodes! Too awesome!
