As a total surprise, a new version of Colin McRae Rally has just appeared on Steam. While at first it looked like this was one of the classic retro releases we see appear on the Steam platform now and then, this version of Colin McRae Rally seems to be different. Remastered and based on the PlayStation One classic Colin McRae 2.0, this game is retailed for $7.00.

The game is stated to be 90% Colin McRae Rally 2.0 content, running on the Unity engine. The developer explains that this version of the game shares the same code as the recently released mobile port, but has been revamped for PC and MAC. They state that they have done a lot of work on the handling and graphics side of things and re-mastered the audio to make this the best possible version yet making this a true hybrid game.

This new Colin McRae Rally for Windows PC version features thirty rally stages and four cars. The Subaru Impreza, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI, Lancia Stratos and Ford Focus.

The Cars:
Get behind the wheel of four legendary rally cars, the Subaru Impreza, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI, Lancia Stratos and Colin McRae’s Ford Focus. Pace notes read by professional rally co-driver Nicky Grist help you fully commit through each and every stage.

Control:
With the critically acclaimed Colin McRae Rally handling, damage and physics model under the hood, feel the thrill of putting pedal to metal across different surface types and blast through beautiful, challenging environments. Race with a range of pads, including Xbox 360 and PS3 controllers.

The Challenge:
Take on different game modes including quick races, full rallies and Championships, post your best time to the leaderboards and unlock achievements.

For $7 - why not!

TBH the mobile version is pretty shonky, so I wouldn't have much faith in this one.

I was a little bit excited and if someone confirms I can use my wheel, and not as a digital device, I will buy it.

[DexterPunk]

I'll probably grab it if it's ok!

It's the mobile version ported to pc. Apparently wheels act as digital input.

Well that sucks...

[Bauer]

that review, well the first 4 minutes, makes the decision for me

Bugger. Bought it last night. Couldn't help it. Oh well, it was $7. Wonder if anyone will mod a wheel to work.

I bought Dirt 3 in the Steam sales for around the same amount! I'd totally dig CMR with Dirt's graphics!

wow...
I'm pretty sure, based on the original description, everyone thought it was a re-mastered version of the original.

[Bauer]

And based on that feedback, they should now go and remaster the original. I would buy it.

[DexterPunk]

I think I'll click refund.
