WRC: FIA World Rally Championship Arcade
Description official description
WRC: FIA World Rally Championship Arcade is an arcade rally game, specifically aimed at younger players with its forgiving handling and arcade-style gameplay. The player races in one of the seven cars, and 14 different official WRC locations are present in the game. Tracks include Australia, Cyprus, Spain, Greece, Sweden, and many more.
The game has several different gameplay modes, including the super special, standard championship, time trial and two-player versus modes. The "super special" mode is the single player campaign mode, where the player-controlled character challenges other drivers across a series of tracks. The player starts out in the last position and tries to finish in first place by overtaking all other vehicles.

The Good
The fact of being able to do face to face races with a World Rally Championship license in an official environment. Also, there is 4 cars in the circuit and that does mix (in my opinion) both rally and touring car circuit racing and that is a plus, similar to having two games in one.
The Bad
It is not that I dislike it, but the most normal part of the game what the music. Useful just for keeping you distracted or while you browse through the menus.
The Bottom Line
One of the strangest rally games. My first Play Station game that I owned, when my parents had already bought me the Play Station 2, which was also the first console that I owned. However, I had been playing since at least 1998 elsewhere.
