Anyone interested in burnt rubber beware:

I know this seems a bit too much destruction, but if Codemasters is involved, I'm sure they soak every last tear of adrenaline out of it >:D

Here's another fine teaser:

Art, if you can't check it this way, here's an alternative:

By the way, this game looks more like a serious game than in that first vid. I see some nice GYMKHANA tracks and, again, SMOOTH graphics for a racer :-X :)

Dirt is the first game that gives good DX11 graphics.

I was amazed by the change in detail in Dirt 2 already, and it worked smooth. Same goes for Dirt 3.
I've tried DX11 in both Batman AC (which was a disaster) and Crysis 2 (which didn't really impress unless you downloaded a huge textures pack too) but with Crysis it still costed me framerate drop.

I don't know why it runs so good with Dirt, maybe their design is better, or maybe a racing game isn't so demanding for graphics as the other games I mentioned.

Codemasters did a great job with all their racing games that I know, I never had problems with performance while it looked awesome. Maybe they know better than most how to properly implement stuff like that :)
