CODEMASTERS TO BRING COLIN MCRAE RALLY 2.0 TO PC

Sequel to the Racing Hit Colin McRae Rally

Los Angeles, CA – September 14, 2000 --– Codemasters announced today that it would be releasing Colin McRae Rally 2.0, the fastest and most raucous rally racing experience ever, for the PC. Both the PlayStation and PC versions will be available in November 2000.

Reaching unbelievable speeds and braving unpredictable courses are the main attractions of rally racing. The race is against the clock and it happens over the most rugged of terrains, such as ice, gravel and mud, all around the world. Featuring Scottish-born racer Colin McRae’s Ford Focus, among six other cars, the high-end rally driving action and the unparalleled car handling takes gamers through exotic locations such as Greece and Indonesia. Colin McRae Rally 2.0 also introduces a groundbreaking and wild action arcade game mode.

Colin McRae Rally 2.0 offers players five dynamic camera angles to view the action, including Codemasters’ trademark Head Cam view which, with its constant jostling, simulates the relentless and often unforgiving impact of the road’s surface on the car.

The original game Colin McRae Rally, was released earlier this year for the PC and PSX.
