Rally Championship Xtreme is an off-road racing game, the sixth in the best selling Rally Championship franchise series. It features an enhanced physics engine, 27 different up-to-date cars (plus some classics),  24 tracks from around the world - Arctic, USA, Safari and British, realistic damage to cars, and  on-line rallying - including league and cup competitions. Rally Championship Xtreme includes five modes: Championship mode for the true hardcore rally racer, Quick play for one-off thrills, Arcade mode for a faster - arcade-style race, Challenge, where cars can be unlocked, and you can have a more in-depth resource management experience and Multiplayer with both LAN and Internet capabilities up to 4-6 players. Unlike Paris-Dakar, in this game you can drive practically everywhere on the maps. It's pretty cool feature, though I was driving right through the people and they were still cheering me on :P Also damage system is very well done, if you crash into trees, rocks etc, you will receive real physical damage and also will receive a description of the damage on-screen: suspension damaged, steering damaged, body damaged, headlight, even cooling system etc. For example, if you smash your fenders and bumper into one of your wheels, the wheel will not move!

The game seems to be difficult at first, so you will play the same shit over and over (no savegame option), but later you will get-in :) It need just a practice. Only the game interface pissed me off. I didn't find how to quit out of a race because ESC (and the other keys) didn't work for me in the middle of a race. So the interface could be really much better done, it's lame to use ALT-F4 to Quit :) However, It was cool for me to play finally some good off-road racing game again. Also I found here also Czech cars Skoda Felicia and Skoda Octavia (I know these cars from real life), but Audi still rocks! :) I bet most people want how to unlock the better cars immediately - simply use this cheat :P So what about the final verdict? This game seems to be promising a lot of impressive stuff for racing fans and enthusiasts alike. If you are tired to play Colin McRae 2, try this baby :) Download this playable demo (45MB) and visit the official homepage.
