Dirt 4
SCORE: 80
I am not into Rally racing. I actually
despise most of the Rally racing video games because they are
frustrating, annoying, aggravating, overly difficult, and obnoxious. So
I cringed a little on the inside when I picked Dirt 4 out of the pile.
Guess what? I actually enjoyed playing Dirt 4. There is only one aspect
of this racing game I would change.
You can probably figure out what part of Dirt 4 I am not thrilled about
if you looked at the scores for this racing video game. That department
is the audio. The offensive lyrics were not needed. We can completely
turn off the music. It still plays on certain loading screens though.
The narrator and the navigator are not my personal favorites. In fact
that navigator just annoyed me.
The modes in Dirt 4 are Events (Career, Competitive, Multiplayer, Free
Play, Dirt Academy, and Joy Ride), My Team, Vehicles, Mail Box, and
Options & Extras. Dirt 4 is very approachable for casual gamers. In fact
players pick Gamer or Simulation. We also get to pick the difficulty of
Dirt 4. If you like winning then pick the lowest setting. The loading
times in Dirt 4 are on the long side. Dirt 4 starts easy and gets
progressively more difficult.
I still have problems understanding all of the directions. The nagging
woman navigator is not very helpful at times. She rattles off so many
things so quickly that it is easy to miss something. I wish the road
changes stayed up closer to that point on the track. I do like earning
money and being able to buy different cars. We might even do a video
series of Dirt 4.
I am thankful Family Friendly Gaming purchased a copy of Dirt 4 on the
Xbox One. The PR and marketing people representing this game failed us
completely. Their loss if you know what I mean. Dirt 4 is a rally video
game I can actually get into. That means millions of members of Family
Friendly Gaming Universe could also get into it. It was a pleasure to
play and review Dirt 4.
