Colin McRae Rally Critic Reviews

This is the best rally game on iOS. It brings back everything the original game had and makes it work almost flawlessly on iDevices.

Though the visuals look a touch dates, Colin McRae Rally is a no-brainer for iOS racing fans.

For some the difficulty may be daunting, but Colin McRae Rally delivers a quality rally racing experience.

A positive and satisfying iOS port of one of the most successful rally simulators available on PlayStation.

Colin McRae Rally is a fine racer, but it's sorely let down by some forgotten modes and features, and those seriously outdated visuals.

With the tools Codemasters has at its disposal here, the developer's delivered a mobile rally experience that's about as good as it gets - albeit one where a lack of true multiplayer seems like a bit of a missed opportunity. Even if the framerate wobbles a little, even on the latest Apple hardware, it still delivers a fun enough rally experience.

It’s not just retro, pixely platformers that deserve the port treatment. Colin McRae Rally was and still is a good racing game. The speed and handling remain just as tight as ever, and the game is sure to keep your hands sweaty as you try and keep your ride ahead of the competition.

Colin McRae rally started its life as a PlayStation 1 game, and now it's on iOS. Sadly, there's no accompanying visual upgrade to make it look better on today's Retina screens.

It’s a great driving experience with an accurate feel to every move of the car, though the game style can grow a bit bland. Colin McRae Rally is worth picking up for some immersive rally racing.

The core gameplay of Colin McRae Rally is more than solid. Its driving is fun and a challenge at the same time. Several technical issues will get you upset at the very end, but the biggest criticism goes to the surprisingly almost no content. Still, the new Colin McRae game deserves my recommendation, which is valid information at least for the rallye-positive gamers.

In summary, Colin McRae Rally is a good game but with the series' heritage, it should have been a fantastic game. Perhaps the reason there wasn't a major fanfare about the iOS release was it was just cash-cow milking experiment.

Colin McRae Rally has limited appeal for those who aren’t nostalgic hardcore racers or rally aficionados.

Nostalgic fans of the 1999 original will get a much-welcomed visual overhaul in Colin McRae Rally. Racing games have come a long way since then though, and this rally racer just doesn't keep up with what else the iPhone and iPad have to offer.
