In addition to TOCA, Colin McRae represents the serious side of motor sport within the PSP launch line-up. Essentially, it’s a rally game with a ton of graphical grunt, stoked with features that include over 30 authentic cars to be hurled around over 300 realistic stages. Modern powerhouses such as the Audi A3 3.2 Quattro feature alongside essential classics that include the Lancia Stratos. If it’s a celebration of the sport, look no further.

You’re welcome to invite up to seven friends for a race via Wi-Fi, but keeping you busy for the most part will be Career Challenge mode. Codemasters has worked so much detail into CM 2005 Plus that they really don’t want you to miss it, so Career Challenge requires you to ace 23 events using a cross section of all types of car –front-, rear- and four-wheel drives inclusive. It seems like a slog, but there are plenty of accolades and trophies to collect along the way.

Just like the greatest drivers, Codemasters like to think a step ahead. For ‘Colin’ on PSP, the inclusion of regular save points makes it the most user-friendly racer on the format. Indeed, eight players racing simultaneously via WLAN makes it the friend-friendliest too. Beyond that, the sibling of Codemasters’ seminal off-roader matches its beefier console versions shale for shale, which is remarkable. This unassuming UMD really tests that little analogue slider for precision and feel, but comes up trumps in that respect. Sure we don’t have the additional analogue for gas, but ‘feathering’ the accelerator with a button works fine.
