probably a stupid question but the last PC game i played was quake 3. Will i have to have access to an internet connection to play it? I fly a lot and wouldnt mind grabbing dirt 3 (have dirt 2 on my xbox)
I can't remember exactly, but you can use steam in offline mode. Not sure about dirt 3 (even though I have it) but I think you can play offline, just no achievements and such. Honestly for a few bucks you can't really go wrong, I suppose.
Dirt 2 & 3 requires constant internet access via GFWL if you want to save your game
GFWL is a bitch.
GFWL makes you it's bitch.
Thanks to the OP….great game series (if you're into racing/rally)….a bargain 4 sure!!
You can use Dirt 2 or preferably Dirt 3 to practice before the release of Dirt 4 towards the end 2013
Also if u were lucky enough to grab a copy of Greed - Black Border for free last Aug (http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/77427) use can use it as a trade-in for a further 50c reduction to the price.
Downloading now….
Thanks for posting. DIRT 2's reviews sound good, but I don't have a steering wheel, which of these games is the most keyboard/beginner friendly?
The drifting events in Grid are really fun, as are most other events. Some of the high class (supercar) events can get a little hectic and might be difficult to control without some sort of wheel/game pad. I haven't played either of the Dirt games. Most (if not all) driving games are significantly better with a wheel or game pad due to the variable triggers for accelerator/brakes and analogue steering vs. the toggle switches of a keyboard.
I'd highly recommend getting a wired Xbox 360 controller! You can't truly grasp a racing game with a keyboard especially without sensitive steering/acceleration
^^Couldn't agree more.

Grids online servers are down indefinitely, so theres no online play.
All three are VERY good racing games.
There's not much on the market that can compare.
Awesome, purchased all 3 :D
I only want one, Grid or Dirt 2?
I like the look of the locations in Grid better, I think. Is one of them easier for small kids? Is Dirt 2 better visually?
do i have to buy them separately to get the 20% off?
Code only works once per account
accounts are free to make, and each account can get a referral bonus ($2 off)? ;)
But don't do this, GMG is one of the few good online games stores around and should be supported.
F1 2012 down to $16! thanks!
Seems to have gone up to $15 with 20% off = $12 for Dirt 2..
If you're looking for some great racing games, I highly recommend DiRT 2 or 3. They're a bit different, with DiRT 2's nicer visuals (in my opinion) and DiRT 3's bigger focus on rally courses. Both are fantastic played with a force feedback steering wheel!
