All Specs
  • Platform Tested: Sony PSP
  • Genre: Racing
  • ESRB: E

    Sega Rally started the whole arcade rally car racing genre back in 1995. This year's Sega Rally Revo for PSP is everything you'd expect from the franchise. In this version, you'll find lots of licensed cars and a new feature, surface conditions, which changes the surfaces over the course of the race. It's not a hardcore rally sim like the Colin McRae series, but in a way, it's even more fun! The PSP version is perfect for a long commute on public transit. Overall, Sega Rally is a grin-inducing ride for the arcade racing fan.

    Joel Santo Domingo joined PC Magazine in 2000, after 7 years of IT work for companies large and small. His background includes managing mobile, desktop and network infrastructure on both the Macintosh and Windows platforms. Joel is proof that you can escape the retail grind: he wore a yellow polo shirt early in his tech career.

He is responsible for overseeing PC Labs testing, as well as formulating new test methodologies for the PC Hardware team. Along with his team, Joel won the ASBPE Northeast Region Gold award of Excellence for Technical Articles in 2005. Joel cut his tech teeth on the Atari 2600, TRS-80, and the Mac Plus. He’s built countless DIY systems, including a deconstructed “desktop” PC nailed to a wall and a DIY laptop. He’s played with most consumer electronics technologies, but the two he’d most like to own next are a Salamander broiler and a BMW E39 M5.
