Today Microsoft has confirmed that UK heavyweights Codemasters will be producing a new release of Collin McRae Rally for the Xbox. The news came as Microsoft unveiled the new console to European journalists in London along with running versions of Munch’s Odyssey and Malice.

As we are massive fans of the Collin McRae games, we called up Codies to find out more. It seemed like they had never heard of either Collin McRae, let alone the Xbox. When we informed them that Microsoft had announced the existence of the title, they seemed completely taken aback. “No comment,” was the informative and original response from Codemasters. It seems that Codies has been to the Electronic Arts school of press relations.
Is this a case of Microsoft doing whatever it wants without consulting everyone involved? Surely not!
