TOCA Race Driver 2006 Interview
Here's an interview with Codemasters studio head Gavin Masters about
TOCA Race Driver 2006. http://www.gamespot.com/pc/driving/t...w_6120536.html I found the original TOCA to be enjoyable on the PC. TOCA Race Driver 1 was great on the XBox, and the demo sucked on the PC. Never played the TRD2 and can't recall reading anything positive about it. Maybe this title will pan out. |

TRD 2 on the Xbox, was almost a great racer. It had physics, that were quite simmy by console standards, good graphics, very nice selection of series and tracks. Solid Xbox Live support. And really ****ty replay value. The problem was that each series (Nascar, CART, F1, Aussie V8, etc) had 3 or 4 tracks. You could ONLY drive those cars on those tracks. So as much as you wanted to, say, drive Aussie V8s at Donigton, or F3 at Mt. Panarama, it just wouldn't happen. This great limited, at least in my view, the replay value. |

TRD2 was an improvement over TRD1. With luck the third one will be better than its predecessor. At least it will have qualifications instead of assigning you a random starting order. |

"Getting the car handling right for the wide variety of vehicles is a
process that continues from the first car model being available right through to beta. Designers are entering the technical data for each vehicle before fine-tuning each to perfection in conjunction with racing professionals from each type of racing we include." ROFL, yeah right. Get Real, Codemasters. |
