While pining for the release of Gran Turismo 5 I’ve been trying out a few other driving sims, and one of the most recent was Colin McRae: DiRT 2. Great fun, although pretty tough, and definitely worth a go if you prefer your racing to include plenty of sideways action.

DiRT3 Trailer

Well, it just so happens that there’s a sequel to DiRT2 coming next year and it’s going to be called … yep, you guessed it … DiRT 3. Check out the trailer below and you’ll notice that the franchise appears to have got a new front man. It’s none other than Mr.Gymkhana and would-be rally star, Ken Block.

The trailer doesn’t give  too much away other than some lovely graphics and a variety of surfaces to race on, but Codemasters are boasting that the game will feature more cars, more locations and more events than before. Sounds promising!
