I think having to pick just one dirt racing game as favorite game is a little bit unfair. I can't do this mainly because I keep changing my mind depending on the season of the game that I'm playing at the moment.
I would choose Dirt 3 because it jumps around between some cool environments- including Aspen, Finland, Kenya, the LA Coliseum, Michigan, Monaco, and Norway. Also this game may be good for newer players, by including optional throttle, brake and steering assists.
Lot of people are kind of fan of the Dirt 3 game. And they seem to be making the most out of the graphics and the experience.
I think Dirt Rally game is often mistaken for the version number. people should look at that before downloading.
In my opinion the DIRT 3 is the best dirt game. its graphics are amazing. I love the control of vehicle. It is so realistic. I have been using the wheels and paddles for gaming. It was not less than driving in real life. everyone has their own choice but I think there is no other dirt game like DIRT 3.
I agree with Demitri. Dirt 3 is the finally a best dirt game ever. It took my positive opinion when I played it for the first time. I suggested all my friends and cousins to play this game. Visual work and sound effect are worth appreciation.
Dirt 3 is a good dirt game but it cannot be said that it is the only dirt game worth playing. Dirt 2 is still a one of the best dirt game of its time. Maybe it would take some time to understand to play and understand other dirt games.
I feel that Dirt 3 takes the cake of all the eight games. The stage rally experience feels superb on both the controller and the wheel. It has amazing graphics for its time and the driving is so smooth unlike other Dirt games which came way after like Dirt 5. It was the pioneer for some of the best game modes in the franchise and was the best version of each of them. Progression is so much better in Dirt 3, though the being compelled to drive certain cars at certain times was not something I enjoyed. Graphically it is better than Dirt 2 but the only issue I had with it that the extreme action sports crap and annoying rivals constantly yapping in your ear the whole game were missing, but that really isn't a bad thing.
