Colin McRae Rally is a racingvideo game series developed and published by Codemasters.
Started in 1998, the franchise has been a critical and commercial success and is generally acknowledged as a pioneer of realistic rally sports racing games. The series is named after the World Rally Championship driver Colin McRae, who provided extensive technical advice during development.
With the release of Colin McRae: Dirt in June 2007, Codemasters changed the naming scheme in the series, dropping the 'Rally' designation, giving way to the Dirt series of games.

Colin McRae Rally (1998)[edit]
Colin McRae Rally, the first title in the series, was released for the PlayStation and Microsoft Windows platforms in January 1998 in the United Kingdom and in September 1999 in the United States. The game featured real cars and drivers from the 1998 World Rally Championship season. Colin McRae's Subaru Impreza was featured on the game's cover.
In Novice mode there are only 3 stages per rally, each followed by a Service Area, making it easier to adjust the vehicle to the different conditions of each stage and repair the damage.
Colin McRae Rally 2.0 (2000)[edit]
The second game in the series, and it features the works-entered cars and the rallies of the 2000 World Rally Championship. There are 3 difficulty levels, namely Novice, Intermediate and Expert. New features include Arcade mode, with direct head-to-head competition against AI drivers or another player, and a cleaner and more minimalistic menu system, which would be retained for the rest of the series until the release of Dirt 2 in 2009. The game was a bestseller in the UK,[29] and again later in the year.[30] A version for the iOS was released in June 2013.[31][32]IGN gave it a score of very high 9.4/10.
Colin McRae Rally 3 (2002)[edit]
This was the first Colin McRae game released for the Xbox, as well as the PlayStation 2. It features rally cars from the 2002 World Rally Championship. A GameCube version was announced but it was cancelled. It uses an autosave feature. IGN ranked it as the 91st best PlayStation 2 game. The staff praised its improvement and technology.[33]
Colin McRae Rally 04 (2003)[edit]
This fourth incarnation of the Colin McRae Rally series, unlike in the previous three games, has no official WRC team license. All of the cars' liveries are either fictitious or taken from championships other than the WRC.
Colin McRae Rally 2005 (2004)[edit]
The 2005 incarnation of the McRae franchise was released for PlayStation 2, Xbox, Microsoft Windows and PlayStation Portable and has over 70 stages spread over nine countries. There are over 30 cars available. There is also a revised graphics and damage engine that enables paint scratches on the car, and a new 'career' mode where the player starts out in the lower club leagues and works their way up to compete with Colin McRae in his 2004 Dakar Rally Nissan Pick-Up. In 'Championship' mode the player takes the role of Colin himself competing in six rallies using any 4WD car.
The game's graphic engine allows for more realistic damage effects and a blurred vision effect if the player comes into contact with a hard object.
An OS X version of this game, renamed as Colin McRae Rally Mac, has been published by Feral Interactive and developed by Robosoft Technologies and represents the first Macintosh release of a CMR series game. It was released on 26 October 2007, just six weeks after McRae's death in a helicopter crash. The development of the game was fraught with problems. Apple's switch to Intel Macs, some behind-the-scenes changes at Feral and other issues conspired to keep Colin McRae Rally Mac from being released until fairly late into 2007, despite it being based on PC-game underpinnings that Windows gamers had been enjoying since late 2004. Feral chose to make this release as independent of the PC franchise as possible to avoid any issues that might date it, calling it 'Colin McRae Rally Mac' rather than attaching a year to it. Two mobile game versions of this game were created, a N-Gage title developed by Ideaworks3D and a J2ME title developed by IOMO and published by Digital Bridges. The N-Gage version reused stages from Colin McRae Rally 2.0. Both were nominated for BAFTAs in the Mobile and Handheld categories respectively.
Colin McRae Rally (2013)[edit]
The 2013 game Colin McRae Rally shares the same name of the 1998 release but the game's content and driving model are taken directly from the 2000 title Colin McRae Rally 2.0. This version was released on iOS in 2013 and ported to Windows, OS X and Android in 2014.

Environment | Configurations | Comments | Tester | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Region | OS | CPU/GPU | Revision | Graphics | Sound/Pad | ||

| 1.1.0.5618 | GSdx |
| Europe v02.00(14/06/2004), INTC, Wait Loop Detection, microVU, MTVU and VU Cycle Stealing on 1, Many graphic not showing on HW mode and game acts weird, SW mode shows everything but a bit too overbright and without car's shadow. Ghost car starts before countdown. Co-driver can glitch out and loop random speech throughout the game. Ingame clock runs slower, making the game very easy, but see this as some kind of benefit for those who aren't good at rally games. |
Known Issues
Broken game internal timing
- Status:Active
- Type: Major
- Description: The game's internal timing is way off. This causes events to desync such as the ghost car that will either go much faster/slower than the time you set (if you import a save game with ghost times). Playing with internal cameras such as bumper view, hood view or cockpit will increase the gameplay speed in such a way that the car is too fast and uncontrollable. The internal timing is sensible to the emulation speed, speedhacks, renderer and even tracks/cars used.
- Workaround: This is not a foolproof solution, but going to Config>Emulation Settings>Speedhacks, tick 'Enable speedhacks' and setting 'EE Cyclerate' to -3 makes the game less faster, but still not quite how is supposed to run. Enabling Software Mode will also make the game slower (if you can substain a decent amount of fps).
