    The cars and tracks are all wonderfully done. The graphics are beautiful and realistic.

    Rarely has the rally ethic been so faithfully re-created, with careful attention paid to the endurance-intensive realism of off-road competition. [Apr 2002, p.80]

    If you are looking for a diverse lot of cars and some stunningly beautiful roads to drive them on, then Rally Trophy is squarely at the front of the rallying pack.

    It distinguishes itself from the pack by its visual effects, excellent physics, and a longing backward glance at vintage cars. [Apr 2002, p.106]

    The developer's first baby possesses a real joie de vivre and handles like a dream.

    A superb game that offers an unusual alternative to the more technology packed offerings like McRae and Pro Rally.

    Cars and tracks are wonderful and gameplay is outstanding. Many classic cars to drive and nice countries to compete in. Graphics are outdatedCars and tracks are wonderful and gameplay is outstanding. Many classic cars to drive and nice countries to compete in. Graphics are outdated by now but is still very good for such an old game. Cars can be hard to control sometimes but offers nice feeling to the driving experience.

    I recommend the game although it is very old.    … Expand

    Excellent playability. Simulation level is ok for it's time, although not perfect by todays standards, but playability is just Excellent playability. Simulation level is ok for it's time, although not perfect by todays standards, but playability is just hilarious, there is lots of feeling to the driving! Simply still one of the very best LAN rally games! Graphics are outdated by now, but still gorgeous and realistic, and work very well for the driving experience. And on the plus: today the graphics just fly, no lagging or stuttering! Even in single play it just very very fun - so many racing games are only good, but they are not fun. This is.… Expand

Cela dit, parfois d'autres jeux fonctionnent même comme ça, directement sans protester le moins du monde... mais c'est sacrément rare !

    Preuve que le jeu interroge correctement DirectX (sauf pour le DirectInput hélas) on peut monter en 1080p (1920x1080) sans aucun souci et le jeu ne s'avère pas trop vilain dans cette configuration, tous détails au maximum bien entendu. Il tourne comme une fleur mais la manette n'est pas réglable, ni configurable et on doit se contenter de tout faire avec le stick gauche (accélérer, freiner et... tourner de toute évidence) car le reste ne fonctionne pas...

    C'est plutôt ballot... mais d'autres soucis intrinsèques accablent ce jeu de rallye comme le réalisme tant vanté qui se révèle en vérité beaucoup trop arcade ou ces effets sonores totalement ratés, y compris les bruits de moteur encore plus ratés : il vaut mieux être sourd que d'entendre de telles casseroles ! le comportement des véhicules est lui aussi raté, car quelle que soit la voiture, c'est toujours pareil !

    Avare en sensations, mou et rapidement ennuyeux, ce Rally Trophy ne décroche décidément pas la timbale mais le bonnet d'âne... on lui accordera donc juste 1 point... au dessus de zéro.    … Expand
