Summary Delta- best car ever?

Pros: *Note* It was tested on PC, WIN XP 80 GB harddrive, not XBOX. I used a Saitek P880 gamepad. Right rally, wrong gamestation.The graphics is way more detailed than its predecessor, CMR3. I love the bonuscars, which are much more fun (easier to handle) than the bonuscars in Colin 2. I generally trust the cars more than in Colin 2. Sweden, Australia and Finland are my favorite tracks - demanding and still possible to drive very quickly. Codes for unlocking cars, tracks and parts. A little delay (but still less than CMR2) in corners.
Cons: My copy was very hard to install. After one disc it stopped installing and I finally got it working - in Safemode after some 10 tries. Choosing upgrades hangs my game and I can only reboot the computer to get it running. Obstacles are evilly placed in the apex or just at the outside of a corner. Correcting a mistake seems harder than in Colin 2 mostly because of the narrow tracks.

Reviewer's Comments

A good rival to its own predecessor, Colin 2. The cars are easier to handle and follow your directions more smoothly. When you're facing trouble though, it often takes longer time to correct than CMR 2. Sometimes you find yourself way out in the woods, having to reverse 50 yards or more. A reset-the car on the track button had been welcome. If you own an XBOX/PS2 buy that version-canceling installing problems.
