Colin McRae Rally 3

Colin McRae Rally 3 is a 2002 racing video game developed and published by Codemasters for Xbox, PlayStation 2 and Microsoft Windows. It features rally cars from the 2002 World Rally Championship. Both the PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions were supposed to be released in North America on 10 December 2002, but their releases were delayed a few times before the latter version was settled for February 2003, and the former version for April. A GameCube version was also announced, but was never released.

Colin McRae Rally 3 received “generally favourable reviews” on all platforms, according to review aggregator Metacritic.

IGN and GameSpot wrote positively of the game, praising improvements made in the handling, sense of speed, collision system, graphics, sound, and car customization over its predecessor, while criticizing its lack of substantial content. A lot of magazines and GameSpy gave the game favorable reviews, the former while the Xbox version was still in development, and the latter while the PlayStation 2 version was still in development.

Air Hendrix of GamePro‘s January 2003 issue said of the Xbox version in an early review, “Only the restrictive Championship mode and the nature of Rally racing itself (one car soloing on the trach at a time, best result wins) confines the appeal of McRae 3—it’s a racer’s game, not a gamer’s game. If that’s you, McRae 3 is as alluring as a gleaming, freshly-waxed sports car.” Five issues later, he said of the PlayStation 2 version, “The feel of the driving is what earned the McRae series its reputation, and the controls remain impeccable in this PS2 edition.”
