GamesRadar.com has posted the first part of its Richard Burns Rally developer diary, with part one coming from the creative director, Dennis Gustafsson.

We really wanted to make the game a simulation, both with regard to the driving experience and the immersion of the rally event in which the player is rallying. Obviously these traits should go in and be an integral part of the game play.

IndyCar Series Review @ Eden II

Eden II have posted a review of IndyCar Series giving it 6.5 / 10.0:

IndyCar series may not have the flashy cars in Need for Speed: Undergound, nor does it offer interesting environments like in Project Gotham Racing, but what it does offer is a decent concept and it provides some good racing fun.

If you just wish to race, and are not keen on having fantastic surroundings or funky cars, IndyCar series might just be your cup of tea.
