Xpand Rally Info and Shots - PC, Xbox
1st February 2004, 12:33pm
Xpand Rally is a breathtaking game that gives you the true to life experience of driving powerful rally cars amidst photorealistic sceneries. Realistic weather effects, rolling hills, and animated scenery all add to game's visual perfection. Xpand Rally also features highly detailed models of modern rally cars and handling physics developed with the help of rally sport professionals which further enhance the realism of driving experience. Xpand Rally combines the best elements of Rally and Rally Cross racing in one unique gaming experience.
The game will branch across several different types of Rally, and gamers will be able to compete in either World Championship, individual time trials or more excitingly Rally Cross head-to-head against others.
Split screen, and up to 8 player LAN or Internet gaming will keep online players happy. Force-Feedback technology will also be supported for those with the right hardware such as steering wheels or gamepads.
The visuals are generated by the very impressive Chrome 2004 engine, allowing drivers to cross expansive terrain and open ended tracks. Individual weather effects will have a big effect on the physics of the game, and as you can see from the visuals - definitely look the part!
One of the more interesting features of the game will the fact that you start on a limited budget, with a limited dirt basher. As you progress in the circuit, you are able to receive money to upgrading your car and specs. Not new to racing games by any means, but new to the rally genre. The option to change the characteristics of your car will also be available.
Techland, the Polish developers, are also going to provide a number of unique editing tools, allowing users to make their own tracks, cars, or mods -- something we haven't seen in a rally game before.
Visit the official Xpand website to keep up with all the latest on the game.
Definitely visually impressive and with some promising and comprehensive features! One to look out for if you're a Rally or driving fan.
