Of course, if you can't tell your suspension arm from your elbow, you can opt for the safe option of default settings. The key, as with all rally driving games, is to master the art of sideways driving. Rally 04 copes with it superbly, letting you oversteer all the way to the finishing line. Like many other activities such as jogging, revising for exams and hand-to-gland combat, it's debatable whether racing games are best enjoyed alone or with others.
Some go for the crowded tracks and pristine technology of F1. Others prefer to muck in with the rally drivers, where it's the pure thrill of you against the track and the clock. And on PC or console, there's been none better at recreating the mud-caked world of rally driving than the Colin McRae Rally series. With its legendary handling and brilliantly visualised real-life courses and cars, Colin McRae has been nigh on untouchable in its field for over five years.
If you've sampled the previous bouts of mud wrestling featuring cuddly Colin, no doubt you're keen to know what's new in this fourth incarnation.
And the first thing any veteran will notice is that you're no longer restricted to driving in McRae's long-cherished Ford Focus, as his contract with Ford has expired. Now, you can rev up in several cars right from the off. As you start whipping the various courses and championships, you'll open up more of the 23 officially licensed cars, taking in models in the four-wheel and two-wheel drive categories, as well as some of the now banned Group B s road monsters and a few other bonus models.
We can also reveal that the number of different tyre types is up from last year's ten to a total of 19, with 34 different road surfaces to contend with too. If you're an old hand at Rally, once out on the road you'll start to notice that not only is the handling even more gruellingly realistic and taxing see boxout overleaf , but things also look more slick and detailed. Arguably, there's no better way to show off a top-end graphics card than with a good racing game.
Watching someone cane a Subaru round the hills of West Wales on CM04 with the resolution cranked up supports this more than ever. Stupendous lighting effects mearr every panel, pane and decal of your gleaming motor reflects - until you reach the finish line, by which time the whole thing will doubtless be plastered in mud.
The sun gleams on the black ice, the trees, thick with vegetation, sway gently with the wind. Even if it is difficult to take it in as you gun down a straight at mph. On top of this, if you're one of those to whom cars are like a kind of pornography, a special mode lets you ogle the painstakingly modelled vehicles from practically every angle, opening the doors and peering up the exhaust pipe.
And while there can be little as excruciating as watching a novice prang his way round a course, unable to resist taking every tree and wall head-on, the superb damage modelling makes such a sight a spectacle rather than a chore. Windscreens crack then shatter, bumpers, panels, doors and even wheels get knackered and start falling off. Given a sufficient level of ineptitude, what crosses the finish line can bear as much resemblance to the polished showroom model as Jo Brand does to Gwyneth Paltrow.
Totally trash your motor in the full championship mode, however, and as in real life, you only get the chance for an overhaul every two races. Unsurprisingly, given the nature of rally, there's been no multiplayer modes in previous games to speak of.
That's all set to change with CM04 though, as a bunch of online and LAN options now means up to eight players can try and out-rev each other through stages or entire rallies. Never fear, as opposing drivers will appear as ghost cars, though how our Colin would react to a spectral Petter Solberg overtaking him on a tight bend is anyone's guess.
Otherwise, you can expect to race through the usual assortment of entire championships, rallies and individual stages in the same eight countries as before. In between races in the main mode you'll also be offered special challenges where you have to evaluate new and experimental equipment.
Complete the challenge and you earn the part in question - be it an engine or some tyres-which all goes towards improving your vehicle's performance for future races. There's little doubt that Colin McRae Rally 04 is going to be a quality product. Whether it offers enough to entice owners of CM03 is another question. Stay tuned for a review next issue.
Flinging those finely tuned racers round hairpins and over hillocks is a seat-of-the pants experience in CM games, and CM04 has done nothing to dilute this gritty handling trademark. Instead, the latest outing manages to ratchet things to even greater levels of evocative realism. Previously, you could practically feel the tyres grappling with the treacherous surfaces, but now you can take 'practically' and change it to 'actually'.
For CM04, the developer has done away with the 'steering aid', which up to now meant the car's handling was determined around a central pivot point. This has now been removed, meaning each tyre's grip on the surface is treated individually, making the whole thing even more like taming a wild beast. While you might not be able to put your finger on this being the change when playing CM04, if you're a fan of the series, you'll notice immediately that the way the car skids, skews and lurches around is that little bit more gratifying.
With a decent steering wheel preferably with pedals , blasting round CM04's superb-looking courses promises to be a very pleasant drive indeed. Colin McRae Rally 04 is, without a doubt, the best rally game available on the PC - but it's a lonely business, with just your co-driver for company. But, while the main thrust of the game might be all about shaving seconds off your stage times, there's a multiplayer component as well, and this demo enables you to fire up a game on a LAN or over the Internet, and take on up to eight different players.
You're not actually racing with your opponents - they just appear as ghost cars without m any collision detection - but the thrill of the chase is still there.
