    DIRT is the worst game I've ever could think of , this year. Honestly, I didn't even play after the second level, It's so boring and bugged that I believe no one will ever have a desire of playing this game, only those w... Read Full Review

    The most unique and fun 3rd person shooter this year.

    DIRT - Origin of the Species, has been in development since 2003. Eager fans have waited while release dates have been cancelled or pushed forward for the past 3 years. The wait is over, and it's been worth the wait. ... Read Full Review
