RalliSport Challenge makes its way to the PC with some of the best graphics yet for a PC racing game.

RalliSport Challenge has made its way to the PC from the X-Box platform. While most expected a standard port of this X-Box title, what we got instead is one of the best racing games of the year. The graphics are amazing and the fact that it takes advantage of some of the features of high-end graphics cards doesn't hurt the game, either. With 29 licensed cars (and several 'bonus' vehicles), 48 tracks, realistic AI opponents and spectacular crashes with realistic car damage, RalliSport Challenge packs quite a lot into this PC racing game. Be warned that this game does have some hefty system requirements, and in order for the game to run best, you should not stray too far from them. As far as racing games go, this is one of the best looking racing games available for the PC right now, and should be a big hit with any racing fan on your shopping list.
