Well ok, you might be a better driver than that and suffer nothing more than a dent in the side, but the car damage does look fantastic.

Don’t be fooled though, 2.0 has a stack load of improvements under the bonnet.Colin McRae 2 now sports much more impressive eyecandy, not only are the cars more detailed but the terrain is also more realistic. So how do you improve on a game that already beats the competition hands-down?Ĭolin McRae 2.0 at first glance doesn’t look that different from the original, sure the graphics are better but on the outside the game follows the same format.
