Cleaned off DIRT to reveal Colin McRae Box Art

Posted Mar 5th 2007 4:15PM by David Dreger
Filed under: News

While we haven't seen new screens in a while for Colin McRae: DIRT, we do have box art, or the "Hake Jacket" as babelfish fumbles on the french translation over at Xboxygen. In any case, it definitely lives up to its namesake, with plumes of dirt trailing the Toyota in the shot. It kind of reminds us of a reversed angle of the Burnout Revenge cover art. Then again, we've been sort of hit and miss with the whole comparing to Burnout thing. At least we're not saying the gameplay will be similar. Are you looking forward to playing this at the tail end of June? Super high resolution version available by clicking the box art that is available after the break.

[Thanks, gaege]

2. Yeah, I'm at a point in my life where I've discovered that box art really doesn't interest me that much... :)

3. Hey, it keeps my interest going. Sometimes it helps you realize that these titles aren't super far off and now I know what to look for on the shelf.

Can't wait for this game. I love rally titles.

5. Ok Tony, I guess that was a bit harsh... However I do prefer things like screenshots to keep me going. And the Colin McRae ones are pretty damn good:

I also love rally games (so much time spent with Sega Rally on the Dreamcast...) so I'll be forking out for this when it comes out too.

6. The adrenaline rush of a good rally game is pretty exciting. If it's got a good feel then being able to compete for the fastest times will be brilliant.

Like to see what the in-car view will look like and the audio should echo every thud and bump.

Done well this could be a sleeper hit methinks.

7. Its funny, I saw somewhere a week or two ago that someone was saying how many PS3s this would sell. Obviously its not exclusive to either console, but if you buy a console for a specific game, you usually get the cheaper one. Just shows how little some people pay attention to the little things, like release platforms.

8. Man, I was playing some Colin McRae today, still one of my favourite racers out there, damn I can't bloody wait for this game.
