1.5/5 ★ – hunkypet's review of WRC 5 FIA World Rally Championship.
PS3 REVIEW
It’s no surprise that previous generation versions of games that get released during a new generation are usually lesser products. What you don’t expect is when they they turn out like this. WRC 5 is shocking, well into the life of the PS4/XONE it’s clear the developers treat this version as a demand from the publisher.
The game feels like a joke, visuals that wouldn’t be out of place in 2005 let alone 2015 when released and hardly anything to do bar a super simplistic career mode and quick events.
The game doesn’t handle well atall either, like WRC 3, it feels loose and slippy. But unlike WRC 3 there was no learning curve, the physics never made sense and I never got to grips with it or found enjoyment from it.
The game is lazy in all honestly and an insult to people that paid hard earned cash to get it. Luckily I got it free with PS Plus but if this is what they considered acceptable then they shouldn’t have bothered.
