Dirt Demo out on Thursday!
There's going to be some real mucky filth on Xbox Live Marketplace on Thursday. Nope, not that kind of filth. Pervert. The download suppying the muddy fun will be Codemasters' Colin McRae Dirt, the latest instalment in the legendary rally series and the first time its been on Xbox 360. It's a huge demo too, featuring three different types of rallying to show off Dirt's varied new career mode.
The other week I was lucky enough to be invited by Codemasters to their development studio and headquarters near Coventry. In between soaking up the beautiful countryside scenery and getting stuck into some Dirt playtime, I had the pleasure of interviewing the game's Producer Alex Grimbley. Here's what he had to say about the demo:
"We think the demo is really going to wow a lot of people. It'll have a Super Stage crossover rally with Colin as your opponent, it's got buggy racing against 9 opponents which is absolute carnage and really shows off the car models, and then we have a hill climb with fantastic scenery and a Travis Pastrana time to beat. It's a great little package and it's out on May 24."

Nice. It sounds like there will be several modes available in the demo.
It better be good because we can't just have only a few racing games.
... still want a F1 sim though.

Thanks for the heads up, also what is your opinion of the game so far?
I like the buggy racing and hill climb modes! Should be a fun demo.
Still not sold on multiplayer implementation...

Just so you don't shoot the messenger, I did read that this demo may only be for UK 360 owners. But that rumor seems to be somewhat un-trustworthy. I just wanted to let you all know that it's out there in case this demo doesn't end up landing for us (US gamers) this Thursday.
I'm sorry. I just got back up from passing out. Tomorroww???? Can't wait.

I won't shoot, I have a knife.

According to this link, in a post from one administrator (RTF) who seems to work for codemasters:
"the release tomorrow should be world-wide"
"the release tomorrow should be world-wide"
If its not available for US owners tomorrow.. Reaper you best not show your face around these parts after Thursday..
