Really Colin McRae was more famous for Codies' games rather than his rallying, so it's a bit more than just a name. I found this on N4G.com, too, so this goes to all the gamers too.

i hardly think they'll change the name. It'll be very disrespectful and even if they did, it would be named WRC or something like that without chaging the gameplay basics

They probably won't change the name.. Everyone knows the name, even in the papers about his death you read 'McRae was also famous with rallygames which carried his name' etc.
Plus, Tony Hawk is retired too, but there are still coming skategames.

Tragic news indeed. How life can be unbelievably short. Go to Colin McRae.com to send your condolences to his family members.

I borrowed DiRT as an overnighter on PS3, and it got a bit boring, especially when you're all alone in a ghost town in first place...

Nope, they took every single copy off the shelves so nobody will ever play it again unless you bought it when it was first released.

Ummmmm....if you can still buy PS2 games (even PS1 in the right stores) then you can certainly still buy DiRT....GRID's better though.

Don't mean to like, prove you wrong or anything, but DIRT never came out on PS2...that and Razkit was being sarcastic.

Sorry, wrong game...

Anyways, no way the quality in the actual game will be that good, they probably just enhanced the pic. I'm just happy there's an Evo X!

Oh I dunno about that....that shot reminds me a little of GRID, and that looked bloody beautiful.
