Geo-Rally 2005

Have any of you guys seen this game?( http://www.ionfx.com/ ) I just recieved the beta of this. One word. Incredible.
This is probably the best racing game we'll see for PPC. The gameplay is excellent, The graphics are excellent. Everything about it is excellent!

That looks very nice considering the limitations. PPC racing games have been very weak, this should change that. Finally a decent 3d racer and from the videos it looks like that handling is good. Hopefully its packed with tracks and features. PPC racing games usually seem very shallow.

How can I get my hands on a beta???

The beta is closed(I think) however, It comes out on sunday so, be sure to check the trial or buy the full version.

I just hope the gameplay makes up for those chunky textures since they will look even chunkier on the x50v. <sigh> I cant wait for more vga and 3d support. The track looks like it has some variance though so thats a good sign.

Yeah, software 3d acceleration sucks, it'd be nice if they had a 2700g acceleration patch and some higher res textures.

Atleast, the drawl distance doesn't look too bad. The problem with a lot of PPC racing games is that the drawl distance is so short things popup on you before you can react.


This one looks pretty good. Any word on price? I'll go check the website to see if its listed.

If you read in the e-mail they sent you along with the beta, It said the sound wasn't quite finished yet. =\

the music isn't finished.. they said the sound of the car should be oke.. but it isn't on my device..

their response:

''Thanks for the feedback!

Is the sound choppy on your 2215? Or a different device? How is the
framerate on each device?''

I was wondering if is really so difficult to develope a game that support 2700G
They made Georally EX.... So, why not GeoRally 2006 EX....?
