It\'s Official.. StAnZo loves Toca Race Driver..
« on: August 25, 2002, 02:55:03 AM »
Yeah guys, i have been playing it quite a lot and i\'m totally engrossed in the racing. it plays excelent.
I put it in yesterday and had 2.5 hours of solid play since my wife and kids were out and i really got to grips with the game.
some of the circuits look absolutley brilliant esp some of the tighter american circuits. there is still loads of detail
on the environments but it\'s the racing that reigns king.
as most of you will know, Touring Car circuits make for some excelent races and it doesn\'t let up in TRD.
The suspension on the cars is nice and smooth, when you go over a crest the suspension doesn\'t judder -
a\'la GT3 it just bounces nicely. also the steering is really soft, a world apart from Colin McRae Rally.
Steering in CMR was very pointy but now the steering has been softened a lot so your no longer flicking from left
to right down a straight road to keep in a straight line. it is definatly the game to have alongside GT3
it really has grown on me.

People who are considering about picking up TRD at-least go rent it out. the game gets hectic once you unlock some of
the quicker cars that are available. right.. i\'m off for another blast around..

I agree, the playability is excellent and the graphics really aren\'t that bad. It is better when you unlock the second tier though.

Have you tried the DTM cars around the long hockenheim yet?
This is one of my fave tracks, 170mph straights, sharp turns, spectacular crashes also.

I\'ll definately rent it. NFS HP2 is now the game I want. TOCA looks very dissapointing.

Yeah, i have Kurt.. i quite like it :0)

Racer, i\'m rather saddened that you couldn\'t find anything in TRD.. i just read your review but i see your points.
I know that NFSHS2 and Burnout should fill the void for you.. i\'ll be in queue to pick these up too.

Anyway, sorry you felt that way about TRD.. atleast you got it from EB.. that return policy is a god send innit.

Yeah, I really think it stinks. I have a headache from all the motion blurring and aliasing.
