#NintendoSwitch #Rally #RacingSim - Hry
Hope you enjoy this review! Let me know below what your favourite Rally game is if you have one. For me, just for pure arcade-ness, has to be Sega Rally doesn't it? Won't be one for the sim-heads, but it's my pick!
Downloading this one as I type :-). It was on my radar but as a relatively low budget mobile port, I had planned to wait for a sale...
I Love rally style games but I'm average at best (I like my racing games to have a nice view as I crash :-)). For me, my top 5(and half) games mainly on Xbox / PC are...
5. Dakar 18 - very rough around the edges in many ways, some vehicle types don't handle well at all but the sense of scale on individual semi open maps plus map reading make this a bit different - actually works ok with a wheel but the force feedback nearly takes you arms off in some sections... which feels 'right' somehow, given the extreme nature of the driving :-)
4. Dirt 4 - much more arcadey than some of the others here but fun to play with a controller or a wheel set up.
3. WRC 8 (and 7) - a bit more serious than D4 and less forgiving but official license does add 'authenticity'. 8 is an improvement handling wise but a lot of tracks and assets carry over from 7 (and I've put more hours into that version, hence I've included it). Works OK with controller or wheel.
2. Dirt Rally (VR) - needs a wheel as controller is poor, pretty tough and to get it running on my WMR VR headset, had to trick the drivers and set gfx to medium, so its no looker... made me ill from motion sickness when I crashed at first but the sensation of just making a sharp corner and then looking out the window to see just how far the drop was is fantastic and terrifying...
1. Dirt Rally 2.0 - a big upgrade on the original in most ways, better controller support but wheel is still the best way to play. Playing on xbox x with 4K and wheel, achieves that same sort of 'oh sh*T' moment when you barely keep it together during a bad corner. Would love this to get a VR patch.
-----------
My big disappointment was V Rally 4 (on both xbox and Switch)... just felt so bland for some reason on Xbox... much preferred WRC by the same devs. I bought it on Switch based on your review, despite my previous experience on xbox as it was the only game in town and it felt the same, only with more performance issues - the close shadow pop in was particularly off putting. The patch that came out a few months after launch improved some of the rougher frame rate moments in the rally cross sections but still ended up just trading it in.
Thanks Scott, you know your Rally games! Interesting to hear where you'd consider this one. Like I said in the review, I generally find Rally games frustrating due to how much concentration is needed, but its great to have some aids to assist in RR3 particularly that braking line which really does help you at least be competitive and hence more fun.
Let me know how you get on!!!
Have a Good number of them,loved sega rally 1 and 2.Colin McRae first three games,rallisport challenge 1 and 2,V Rally 2 and 3,shox,Rally Fusion,wrc rally envolved.
SwitchedOn thanks for the review, bought it an absolutely loving it-cheers!!
Hiya, this or wrc 8 if pushed ? Thanks for advice.
This literally takes me back to the days of the PS2 rally games. Awesome.
I like how this game got real pc graphic options.
It also does on Android, including resolution options. It looks best on a high end phone.
Not really but maybe 201/13 pc/ps/Xbox level graphics but definitely not 2014+ level
@@David-tz1oi he said "options", not the graphics themselves.
Loving this game and bought day one on the back of your week long preview videos! Amazing to think it’s by one guy and with better performance than some of the bigger name rally names on switch. Takes me back to my uni days playing Colin McRae 2.0 on my Pentium something PC.
Just amazing, controls better than the other 2 rally games currently available.
Couldn’t resist picking this up after Christmas
Looking at reviews I really like this guys review of the game , thanks
I bought a Nintendo Switch yesterday and I love car racing games. I haven't got a rally game and just by chance I found that review. The game looks amazing. I couldn't find it in an online shop but it's possible to download it at the Nintendo eshop. 😊
Thanks for that nice review and a happy New Year! 🍀
Great review Paul, really enjoyed the coverage of this. Think I am gonna have to bit the bullet and pick this up, with GRID (holding out for physical) and a Gamecube controller. Or be patient and see what Santa brings! lol
Great review. I'm gonna pick this up right now.
Great review, can't wait to play this. This is right what Ive been waiting for!
Thank you!
Great thorough review. Will probably pick this one up as a result.
Hope you enjoy it!
I love this underrated channel keep grinding don’t stop
Aw thank you Ammotruck, appreciate that!
Yet another great review, just purchased on the back of this. Gonna be a fun Christmas. Cheers 👍😊
Awesome, thank you!
hi since you ave the game could you tell me, is it motion/tilt controlled or do you only use buttons to control the car
thanks for the great review, I will definitely pick it up
Just downloaded it and I love it
Glad you reviewed this- I now own the game and am really enjoying it. It's a very impressive Switch racing game :)
hi since you ave the game could you tell me, is it motion/tilt controlled or do you only use buttons to control the car
@@annabelcranston3618 Yes it has motion/tilt. If you choose to control the game that way, use the bumper-cam when driving.
@@wiredupretro thankyou so much!!
Playing this on an IPad and I love the game. Kudos to the developer. I’ve never been a massive fan of ralley but I’m hooked on this game.
I'll be downloading this on my tablet
Thanks for the review!
Great review Paul. Bought this earlier and it's great fun. I did have a problem signing in but this seemed to be tied to having over a 100 friends so once I trimmed the fat and got down to 80, that resolved it.
Thanks!!!! a patch has been done and it will be with you in the new year!!!
Thanks Addy!
@@BrownmonsterGames Nice one. Great job on the game. It's great fun.
Feels like colin macrae 2006 from psp (its good thing)
Just in time for Christmas.
Looking forward to the update with GC pad support and rumble. Better menu navigation is a must too, and if the game sells well I hope there's incentive to add the Ronald V Turbo and Penguin 1405 ;)
As I understand, the navigation is being addressed at some point!
nice quality review!
This is one of my favorite rally game as well as Rush Rally Origins.
I bought it, cause I like how it looks.
In my search for a game like Sega Rally Championship, this one's seems the most satisfying.
It's also for other people, and for myself, to quick pick up and play.
Nice, now gonna read the comments.
hi since you ave the game could you tell me, is it motion/tilt controlled or do you only use buttons to control the car
@@annabelcranston3618 If you're getting it for mobile there's an option for tilt controls iirc. But fear not, it's use of the touchscreen controls can be "analog-ized" too. So I'm not surprised dev was able to place it on switch.
Also yes, this is the closest thing to sega rally that's available anywhere. That's a massive plus for nostalgiageeks. :D
This game reminds me of rallisport3 old school X box 1
Almost forgot the title.
True, they made 2 games I believe.
Then came Forza. 🙂
Just downloaded this, looking forward to it. Great review pal.
My fave Rally games are Dirt and the classic Sega Rally, one sim, one arcade 👍🏻
Thank you Jet! Lots of shouts for Sega Rally. Hope Sega can hear us! :)
@@SwitchedOn Dont count on it they port the og Sega Rally Championship.
Otherwise they did already.
They brought some spin offs of SRC, on Dreamcast and other systems, but not the OG SRC.
This seems close to SRC.
hi since you ave the game could you tell me, is it motion/tilt controlled or do you only use buttons to control the car
@@annabelcranston3618 Hi Annabel. I've just fired it up as I couldn't remember. Yes, you can use motion/tilt or buttons. I've just tried it with the Pro controller with tilt on, worked well but I prefer the buttons, I may just not be used to the tilt option 👍🏻
@@JetArtois thankyou so much! I’m defo gonna buy it now!
Great review Paul and one of been highly anticipating. I’m glad this turned out to be great game. Great job to the developer as well, fantastic game. Currently downloading for me and plan on hitting it quite a lot over the Christmas period
Cheers Psych!
I bought this on sale for 10 and am interested in trying it out
I seem to be stuck in Auto transmission - Where abouts to I change to Manual in the game? (Nintendo Switch) Ty.
Excellent review 😎
Thank you.
best racing game i played in years. made by 1 person ? 😳
When I first heared about the "RUSH RALLY" i tought - this name can't be good. Also the Screenshots werent that great. But wow - this was made by a single person?! Amazing! Gonna buy this next month.
It's a fun,well done game with some nice details,sadly doesn't have vibration,it's a thing that makes the racing games even more fun.I played vrally and wrc oficial game for switch and this game looks and plays better.Wish someone made a game in style of Sega rally games,miss those style of games with the cool soundtracks during races,Gravel for ps4 was nice.
Ze Zii rumble is coming in first patch :)
@@SwitchedOn Nice.Glad to know it,its strange to play a Racing game without it.Thanks for the Reply.
Should be released mid January once it has gone through Nintendo lot check!
@@BrownmonsterGames Thanks for the Reply.
@@BrownmonsterGames yehey!!!!
Awesome video Paul! One of my favorites was the Sega Saturn rally game. Can't remember the name but maybe it was Sega Rally?? In 2nd place is Dirt Rally on ps4! 👍 Keep up the good work!
P.S
. I'm not as active on CZcams anymore due to some family troubles but I do check out your vids from time. It's awesome to see how your channel continues to grow!!👍 keep up the excellent work and I pray Lord gives you and your family a great Christmas filled with blessings, Joy, Love, understanding and compassion!
"And the light shineth in darkness and the darkness comprehend it not"
(John 1: 5)
Thank you Jav, always great to see you pop up and I do hope things settle down for you in 2020. Thanks for your good wishes, right back atcha! And yea, Sega Rally would be SOOOOOO good on Switch. Really got fingers crossed for that and/or Daytona pretty soon.
My copy arrived from PlayAsia. I wonder why this game hasn’t seen an official retail release with the ESRB ratings?
120fps on iPad Pro. Just saying, I’m really impressed
Is there a season or campaign?
I bought this on my Galaxy S20. Shockingly enough, it will play at 1440p and max settings at a locked 60 fps. I don't know how the guy did it, but it looks great and controls well with an Xbox One pad.
I played this on my old dying iphone whicheverthehellnumber too years back it ran at a rock steady 30fps and all I could say is this dev is a god damn sorcerer. There's no other explanation for it.
I just picked this game up for$4.49 USD.
✌️😝yee hawww
Was it worth it
Good review. can you also review and compare between rush rally3 and Rally racer dirt in physics?
Rest In Peace Colin McRae 1968-2007
1. Sega Rally 1 (Still go back time and time again)
2. Rallisport Challenge 2 Xbox
3. WRC 1 PS2
4. Dirt 3
5. Sega Rally 2 NTSC only!
6. Network Q Rally MS DOS
7. Dirt 2
8. Dirt 2.0
9. Colin McRae Rally 1
10. Top Gear Rally 1 & 2 N64
This list is more about the Rally games I could easily stick on right now and play rather than how good each one is. Merry Christmas!
I thought Dirt 3 was a step back in the series, As it felt very casual compared to one and 2, And the track layouts didn’t standout as much.
I remember Top Gear Rally.
Was one of the highest anticipated rally-games on N64.
I remember you could get flat tyres by driving to fast over railways, and also it was the first rally-game where you could earn decals. 🙂
@@spongebelt After a while, Dirt start to feel monotone.
My opinion.
Nowhere close to Colin Mc Rae.
Not sure if you'll find this comment after a year or so but hey worth a shot.
Since the list you made pretty much tells me you're into arcadey rally games, I'd just like to tell you Rush Rally 3 feels like a love letter and probably the closest thing to Sega Rally series and is just a modernized somewhat updated (albeit not too much graphically) version of those games.
Take that input however you wish! It's on sale on switch at the time of writing too so if you're thinking about it go get it. It's worth it for us craving the sega rally vibes
@@RandomPinoyGamer Thanks for letting me know. I never did get around to purchasing it and then forgot all about it! I'll have a look now 👍
Thanks for the review. Bought it and indeed lots of fun. Although I like the rally mode more than rallycross. Still worth the money.
Thanks Martijn!
Have just got this game. Works absolutely amazing with the new Mario Kart Pro racing wheel.
Just helped me out with the comment about steering wheel , im lookin for anything that will work with it , so far GRID, WRC 8 , work great ...VRally 4 ...not so good (no analogue pedal options , twitchy steering ) ....👍cheers mate
hi since you ave the game could you tell me, is it motion/tilt controlled or do you only use buttons to control the car
It's really good tbf
Great game Sega Rally reborn😀
Now we just need Sega Rally itself via the Sega Ages range!
WRC8 is on discount on the Switch and now priced similar to RR3. Which one would you pick?
I don’t know why but this game is so hard
I put Fox to max for Less lag
Fps stupid auto tipper
£3.99 at the moment. Definitely getting
Its now 3 euro 50
Buy far one of the best rally games next to dirt 2.0 and WRC9 imo. love it
Sebastian Lube!😀
This is the best rally game on Switch by a mile. And they're still updating the game. It's a shame it gets lost in the shuffle.
Does the game has better graphics when 30fps?
If not, I'll stick with 60.
Well, you can change a lot of settings. So if you set higher quality settings in the options for graphics, then you may feel the frame rate isn't quite what you want, so drop the FPS down to 30 etc. There are LOADS of options to tinker with, so you should be able to find a quality vs FPS you are happy with!
@@SwitchedOn Okay, thx.
So if all the graphical options on gives stutter, I lower the framerate.
Also gonna try 60fps without motion blur, that was a great tip.
I'm waiting for the download.
I'm downloading the Witcher 3 on a 32gb sd-card.
Download started yesterday, is now 60%.
After that, Rush rally is in the que.
@@dagothur5807 Do you have a newer phone? You might be better off playing it there with better performance.
@@nickmotsarsky4382 Phone controls are god tier for touch controls too I might add.

Group b intensifies
This game has been upgraded since the video was made apparently. Not all cars have the same cockpit and the motor noises are pretty decent. I don't see any notable frame drops.
For those of you concerned about realism, let me just tell you that I've learnt more about real life suspension setup in this game than from any other source I tried before
This seems to have a mobile stench to it and I don’t wanna get it because of that. But it looks to have decent length races... I hate that Mobile racing games have very short races.
I hate the constant leveling up, and earning loot-crates. ☹
It's so impressive that this game was made by only one person
Oh it’s a phone game
Is anyone else having the game quit on them if they try to log in to the online stuff? Beyond infuriating.
I'm sure Stephen will be along soon, but its affecting some players and being looked at by all accounts.
@@SwitchedOn Thanks for the reply - I was concerned something was wrong with my account!
Someone else I know has had same issue - could be tied to friends count as he reduced his friends list to < 100 and now works.... but again, maybe best to wait for some official advice from the devs!
@@SwitchedOn I've only got about 30 friends on my Switch so it doesn't sound like that could be the issue. Hoping for an update sooner rather than later. Seems like a really odd bug.
@@thomascharnock I'm looking into it, it managed to pass all of Nintendos testing with all their accounts, so this is a new one for me. It is related to friends, but maybe not the count (It could be a name or something else relating to a friend!) I have a patch coming ASAP anyway so I can patch it in the future (it will be January at best as Nintendo shut down this week, and it takes 3 weeks to push a new version through! - Patch will also have vibration and Gamecube pad support.
At least it looks better than wrc 8 and v-rally 4 on Switch
Šūdą malat nupirkau ta žaidimą bet jo nepaleidžia tvarkykit suderinamumą
Looks like doodoo
V rally 4 is better
If you’ve played both, which ways do you prefer vrally?
@@SwitchedOn the physics and graphics are way better and there is a bigger variation cars in v rally
@@sdndnxd4811 Does V Rally not have issues with draw distance and shadows?
@@lastrolo sometimes it does
Wished V Rally 4 would go on sale..
I say imo Forza and Dirt are better games than this graphically and real world stages
Rush Rally 3 is a fun game but it would be better if it crammed in true physics like “art of rally”. Rush rally 3 flatters your rally driving self esteem, but it is wearing very thick boxing gloves when it comes to the physics. It would be killer if rush rally devs and art of rally devs got together and made a new rally game with rush rally visuals and art of rally physics.
Etwas mehr ueber die Steuerungseinstellung waere schoen gewesen
