16 Years of Colin McRae Rally
16 years ago today Colin McRae Rally was first released for the PC and PlayStation. We may have changed our name since and even taken a few diversions but we’ll never forget where we came from.
Team DiRT would like to say thank you to all our fans for sticking with us, it’s been one hell of a ride.
Here are some of your favourite things about our very first game, thanks for tweeting them over.
@dirtgame @Codemasters epic. Just epic.

@dirtgame @Codemasters sense of realism was ahead of its time. Big fan of your titles. It started with that one.
