The best Rally Game for the PS-1
The car physics are excellent, the tracks are numerous and varied over several geographical areas, plus you can control the weather and time of day, which I love. This game, plus V-Rally 2 and Colin McRae Rally 2 are the only rally games that matter on the PS-1, if you're old school like me. The cars handle great, the pace notes are right on and you can play it more than once without getting tired of it. As far as I know there are other tracks and cars to unlock, which makes for a good challenge on a rainy day. The car handling characteristics are enjoyable and the tracks are wide enough to allow for runoff error correction. A wide variety of hills, slopes and terrain to test your off-road skills, and some nice scenery, too. Awesome game, and pretty cheap, too.
