"Sega Rally 2006" is an arcade oriented racing game developed and published by Sega for PlayStation 2. It is the third installment in the decade running "Sega Rally" series, and it was released in Japan on January 12, 2006 and in Korea on March 30, 2006. This version is the first non-arcade version based "Sega Rally", as a consequence it was not created by Tetsuya Mizuguchi's AM3, but by Jun Taniguchi's team.

"Sega Rally 2006" was rated 26/40 by Weekly Famitsu. No overseas editions have been confirmed.

"Sega Rally 2006" Does not have a 480p option for a progressive capable display. It does however have a 16:9 mode.

"Sega Rally Championship" (which is bundled with this game) Does have a 480p option for a progressive capable display. It does not have a wide screen option.

Development

Sega initially planned the PlayStation 2 release date for 2005 as a 10-year anniversary celebration version, and was to be named "Sega Rally 2005", but the launch date was postponed. A significant change in "Sega Rally 2006" involves the development team's change to a new one led by producer Jun Taniguchi, replacing Tetsuya Mizuguchi ("Sega Rally", "Sega Touring Car Championship"). Taniguchi turned "Sega Rally" into his own vision; First, several features have been removed from the previous "Sega Rally 2" for Sega Dreamcast, both Network Battle and two-player Battle multiplayer modes are not available anymore. The music genre has been changed from instrumental Hard Rock with classic tunes such as "Conditioned Reflex" (the 1996 "Plus" edition BGM being performed by the Japanese act "X-BAND") to Lo-Fi synthesizer driven pop becoming a key change in the series. When "Sega Rally 2" offered 3ch Surround sound, the 2006 edition is only Stereo/Mono, which is a surprising backstep on a 6ch Dolby Digital/Pro Logic II capable machine.

Additionally, the depicted "fog" effect from "Sega Rally 2", which was pointed to be a consequence of the use of Windows CE devkit, has been replaced by a heavy "clipping" effect. The increased speed in the driver's view can be explained by the removal of the rear view mirror. The change is also noticeable within the car selection.

"Sega Rally Championship" was introduced with '92 & '94 World Rally Championship winner cars, being both Didier Auriol's French flagged cars, the Sega Saturn version adding Sandro Munari's hidden Stratos HF Gr4 WRC '77. "Sega Rally 2 Arcade" followed this path with four WRC '97 cars: Carlos Sainz's Corolla WRC, Tommi Mäkinen's Lancer Evo IV WRC, Colin MacRae's Impreza WRC, Gilles Panizzi's 306 Maxi plus Ari Vatanen's Escort WRC '98 & Sandro Munari's Stratos HF Gr4 WRC '77. The original Celica & Delta from "Sega Rally 1995" were hidden in the Arcade version. Due to its "10-year Championship" mode, "Sega Rally 2 Dreamcast" had added a large number of cars to the ones already available in the Arcade. Switching from Europe based FIA (Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile) WRC (World Rally Championship) to North American based SCCA (Sports Car Club of America) ProRally, the latter allowing more powerful specs, "Sega Rally 2006" abandon all the vehicles from "Sega Rally 2" to introduce a brand new selection. The three original 1995 classics, Celica WRC '94, Delta WRC '92 & Stratos WRC '77 being also included as hidden Extra cars. Some "Sega Rally 2006" Open Class cars are Mark Lovell's Pikes Peak International HillClimb winning Impreza WRX ProRally '03 (the same model appearing in Enthusia Professional Racing), Tim O'Neil's Focus SVT ProRally '03 and the Lancer Evolution VIII MR ProRally '03.
