I own CMR03 and find it to be superior to CMR04. I don't think the graphics are better, and the soundtrack in CMR03 is more enjoyable. Save your money and purchase a used CMR03 and have fun. I rate McRae Rally 03 a full five stars, but this version 04 in my opinion is about three stars. The only thing I like about this product is the price.

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!

If you are ready for a different racing game challenge, this game is for you. Of the "rally" type games, it has the best marriage of challenge, graphics and overall gameplay. One frustration was the menu navigation. It seems that you have to complete three rallies before you can re-save the awards/points to your profile. Otherwise, a great racing game for those bored with yet another installment of "Test Drive" or Need for Speed. Not for those who enjoy contact and swapping paint with other cars...all modes are "solo". You are eseentially competing against yours and others best times. Great for testing your driving skills but not neceassarily as satisfying on a primal level as smashing a competitor through a gaurdrail!

The best rally game hands down!

I just recently purchased an Xbox 360, and when I found out that the Colin McRae Rally series was available for the Xbox, I had to get it.
I have Colin McRae Rally 2004 and 2005 for my PC. I played these games on my PC for quite some time, but the Graphic is Unmatched compared to the Xbox version. I can't wait to get Colin McRae Rally 2005. I have played so many rally games since I got into gaming, but by far, this is the best rally game I have played on any console, for the exception of Dirt, which is unmatched in Graphics. The other reason I love this game so much is the gameplay. It's not like other rally games where you are racing against other cars. This game gives you the real simulation feel of rally Racing, which is what true rally fans want. I have played the Sega Rally Series, and the rally challenge series, and these games lack realism. As a true rally fan, I want to race against time in different weather conditions. This game give me the feeling as a rally driver, which other rally games lack. I recommend this game for anyone who is looking for a game which has a real WRC feeling to it. I am Hooked. Good job Codemasters.

Great game for $20

At first, I was a bit scepticle of this game, being that it was $20. Normally, cheap games that are new suck. But this game is an exception. The graphics, amazing. The damage modeling is the best I have ever seen. When you are flying throungh the rain and you see little things like rain that goes to the top of the windshield, your jaw will drop. The gameplay is also great. If you do not choose the right car setup, your flying all over. Probably the only downfall of this game is that after beating all of the championships, it can get a little boring. The mutliplayer also isnt all that good. But this game still rocks. If you are a rally fan, this game is a must buy.

This game is excellent, I don't know what everybody complains about. This is the best Rally game so far that is out. It has excellent graphics and the realism is great. The course details are amazing as are the car details and the damage is realistic. I'd highly recommend this game for any racer and for the price, it's a steal. 5 stars in my book.

Real Rally Game

The best single player rally game I have played. If you're familiar with the WRC this game is the most realistic rally game out there. The multiplay does suck, but that's because real ralling is not run against other people, its run against the terrain and against the clock. If you like nascar ( driving in circles ) don't buy this game, if you like the WRC then this is the game for you.

Close... But no cigar

I was really excited to get my hands on this the 04 version of Colin Mcrae rally, At the price I thought I could not go wrong...
Now do not think that this is a bad game, it is certainly not.. however it is just not as good as it should be.
The graphics are good, but not great, and the overall gameplay is ok.
When will designers of games like this not look at Rallisport challenge? The single thing that makes that title stand out is the level of car control and feeling of speed.
Colin Mcrae 04 just does not portray that as well.
On the positives: the car damage is good, and the tracks are challenging.
On the negatives: The load times are absolutely outrageous and the game is just too easy.. ( I completed the first rally without losing a single stage!)
The gameplay is all about keeping your racing line clean and avoiding hitting ANYTHING. If you do this you will be the fastest. However this is just not that fun.

If you do not have any other Rally games then for the price this is not a bad purchase. If you already have Rallisport Challenge..... save your pennies
