I've also pre-ordered the Legend Edition at Consoleshop.be for only 58€, while the digital pre-order is 70€.
Let the countdown begin : 36 days to go !

Hmm.. in the US, when I look at Dirt Rally for ps4 at GameStop and Amazon it shows Legend Edition, but at Best Buy it does not show Legend Edition. I have Games Club Unlock at Best Buy so I would save $10. Wonder if Best Buy is just slow to update or if they really are not getting the Legend Edition?

I'm taking a wild guess and say it's a retailer specific edition of the game - depending where you live, of course. But in all honesty, I don't have a clue. All these pre-order incentives and different editions of games these days are just confusing.

My personal (least) favourite is retailer-exclusive content; you get different pre-order bonuses depending on who you buy from. I noticed it with Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, where you could get the Francis Drake, Henry Morgan or Stede Bonnet packs. They were purely cosmetic, of course - extra costumes and accessories for your ship - but that just proved how hollow it was. If you went to one retailer, you got the very fetching Drake pack, but if you went to another, you got the foppish Bonnet pack, and there was no way to tell which was which. Ubisoft eventually made everything available through DLC, and for cheap, but it was just a ridiculous marketing exercise.

Urgh. Unsurprisingly, Ubisoft took it to a whole new level with Watch Dogs. But I'm sure there are most likely worse examples than that.

Also, a new (Community) trailer ;

If it was actual, meaningful content, then it might be a problem. But like I said, in this case it was purely cosmetic.

Ouch! I also checked out the official trailer at the Xbox Store recently. It has positively blown me away. Codemasters have gone back to their rally sim roots, and it looks like the game's running at 60 fps!

Should make for an interesting addition to my X1 games lineup.

Oops, today's daily rally stage requires you to "own" the car. I think something went wrong with the settings on Codemasters' end......

Not an "Owner's Club" event?

I think I need to get this on my X-One. Been very anxious to enjoy a good rally sim since the C.McRae games.

 

[catamount39]

Made my preorder of this today! Very excited for April 5th.

Spoiler

I've gone away from preordering things, but Amazon was offering a decent discount for prime members preordering this so I figured "Why the **** not?" .

 

[patriotzero]

pre-download open on ps4?
and 270 degrees wheel option available on console version?

If it has the same options as PC you should just be able to change the saturation in wheel options to change the wheel rotation.

 

[torque99]

Its Coming soon )))

 

[ELmarcotuff]

I done diddly got the legend version

 

[torque99]

edit: cancelled pre-order now see below

 

[MeanElf]

...I was going to buy a digital version but makes more sense for me to remove the DC disc and maybe buy that as digital as I only need the original DC (cheap) as all the rest (season pass, Bikes was digitally downloaded). I think that would work?) @MeanElf ! Help this dinasour out with digital ..Would this work with DC for me and what would I lose data wise?👍

As the PS4 (and XB1 as far as I know) pre-loads a very sizeable chunk of the game from disc, you might as well keep it as it is - especially as the 30Gb of updates are already on your HDD.

 

[torque99]

Ok, so it will just be the pain of swapping the discs over before racing Old skool style out the chair

Full Car list of DiRT Rally


Looks amazing

 

[torque99]

^^^ Good find @JASON_ROCKS1998 I can't wait to get my hands on some of those beauties, I will try them on DS4 first to get a feel round the game then the fun begins with the wheel.👍

Edit: @doblocruiser It has the 306 Maxi on there for you (2.47s) I think I counted another 4-5 Peugeots (modern, Hill Climb and Rallycross) can't wait now...

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Considering that the game has gone gold and is in print I've finally decided to add the cars from the final release/next patch to the car list in the OP, lol

 

[ELmarcotuff]

Despite being given the mini for free, I'm still using the fulvia as my first car, unless they changed how you unlock cars in this.

 

[MXH]

Can't wait to get started on my career with the Alpine A110. Although, it appears to be a tad too powerful for the 60's category.

 

[catamount39]

I can't wait to drive the Opel Manta.

 

[MagpieRacer]

So Sainsbury's in the UK will have an exclusive steel book edition with rally guide. Will be limited. I think I'll get mine there now as I get staff discount.

Thanks for this 👍 Oh no, Now I am In two minds Special Steel Book Edition which look cool and rare (Pick up on same day) or Legend Edition in the post pre-order. Can you cancel pre-orders this late does anyone know? Which edition is best?

 

[MXH]

If I got this right, the Steel Book Edition is exclusive to the UK? I would've double dipped already if it was available here.

 

[torque99]

^^I think I am going to go with the steel book as I like collector editions and didn't know this was available as I have a store right near me, If that fails I will just get the standard/Legend at any store..Cancelled my pre-order.
