Sega Rally 2006 is an arcade racing game developed and published by Sega for PlayStation 2. It is the third installment in the Sega Rally series which was released in Japan and Asia on January 12, 2006. This is the first Sega Rally game that wasn't originally made for arcades.

Gameplay

Like its predecessors, the object of the game is to successfully drive along tracks with different surfaces (with the car's handling changing accordingly) while reaching checkpoints and thus be rewarded with more time to allow the player to reach the goal. If the player doesn't reach the finish line in time, then the game will be over. Sega Rally 2006 doesn't support surround sound like its predecessor, Sega Rally 2, and only supports Stereo/Mono sound. The game also has a widescreen support.

Sega Rally 2006 features three game modes: Career Mode, Arcade Mode and the classical Time Attack Mode:

Development

Announced in 2004,[1] Sega initially planned to release the game in 2005 as a 10-year anniversary celebration version that was to be named Sega Rally 2005, but the game was delayed for January 2006 and was renamed to Sega Rally 2006 accordingly.[2] Logitech released an exclusive version of their GT Force Pro driving wheel to coincide with the game's release.[3] A limited edition that included the original arcade game on a separate disc was also distributed.[4]
