Two new videos of Codemaster's Colin McRae: DiRT gameplay joy headed your way. While not as popular as the flashier racing titles that feature the cutting edge of sport cars, the Colin McRae titles have been pretty much the mainstay for fans looking for some down and dirty rally action. And these videos show how much the series have evolved to next-gen.

The first video, Race The Clock, puts you behind the wheel in a full-out race to beat the old ticker. It's worth noting that the gameplay's as smooth as ever, the scenery lush and realistic as it whips by. Some nifty car damage shown, too - namely your windshield shattering into a billion pieces as you engage in a little high-speed fender bender with the track fence.

The second video, Dusty Trails, is pretty much a multi-angle showcase of Colin McRae eye candy, showing off just how the cars - and the tracks - look gorgeous in their next-gen selves. Again, some furious, pedal-to-the-metal action here as well, not to mention some very tempting opportunities to go off-road.

Colin McRae: DiRT is indeed shaping up to be a solid racing title, and a good-looking one at that for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. But don't just take our word for it, watch the videos and see for yourself!
