Colin McRae Rally is the first game in the Colin McRae Rally series, released in January 1998 by Codemasters in Europe, and in February 2000 in North America on the PC and PlayStation, and in September 2001 on the Game Boy Color. It features 8 official cars and rallies from the 1998 World Rally Championship season, in addition to 4 extra cars. |
There are two components for playing a psx Colin McRae Rally rom on your PC. The first component is the emulation program which can imitate the psx OS and software.
The second component is the Colin McRae Rally rom itself to play on the emulator.
Step 1: you can start by downloading a reliable and bug free emulator. We’d suggest Retroarch – it’s open source, fast and one of the most frequently updated.
Once you have finished downloading Retroarch, extract the downloaded .zip file to a location, for example your Desktop. After, double click the RetroArch-1.7.5-x86-setup.exe file in order to start the emulator.
Your emulator will now be ready to play Colin McRae Rally rom. But now you’ll need to find the correct ROMs online. A ROM is essentially a virtual version of the game that needs to be loaded into the emulator.
Step 2: return to Retroarch and hit File > Open. Navigate to the downloaded .exe file and double click it to open it. The game will now run on the emulator and you can play the game freely.
Tip: Saving games on an emulator functions a little differently. The integrated save system will not save your progress.
Instead, you’ll need to click File > Save State and then choose an empty slot. You can save your progress in whatever point you like within the game, not only on the official checkpoints offered by the game.
When playing in the future and you want to continue from your saved state, you can use File > Load State to load up the game from exactly where you last saved it.
