With an 8-year heritage, the TOCA series has captivated a wide breadth of racing gamers. To appeal across the board, TOCA Race Driver 3 will deliver individual game modes that are specifically designed to satisfy the speed-freak and the motorsport simulation fanbase, using all the juice from the enhanced engine. For those who know their friction circles from their piston rings, there?s the new Pro Career mode where you follow a career in a specialist racing discipline - including GT, Off Road, Touring Cars, Historic, Open Wheel, Rally and Oval. With each discipline representing a different genre of motorsport, you?ll progress through championships that cover the breadth of that discipline. If you want to make it as an Open Wheel race driver, you?ll start off in Go-Kart events before progressing to Formula 1000, then further championships including Formula BMW, Formula 3, and all the way up to join the BMW WilliamsF1?? Team! More than ever before, TOCA Race Driver 3?s stunning physics and damage engine will take real-life racing to the next level. You may have seen realistic speed and acceleration before, but TOCA Race Driver 3 accurately simulates full tyre wear, tyre and engine temperatures, fuel consumption affecting weight distribution, and real world engine inertia. This incredible detail is simulated on every vehicle, across the entire range of motorsports featured. Alternatively, if you want to jump straight into some of the world?s most powerful cars and see those tyres screech under full power, take the World Tour - an immediate and accessible racing mode. With race-driven cinematic cut-scenes, continuing the series? innovative plot driven narrative, and more championship choices than ever before, the World Tour is the ultimate fast fix of race gaming. However you decide to race, no TOCA game would be complete without full-on car damage. For TOCA Race Driver 3, the next generation of the series? Terminal Damage Engine is being intensely worked on to create motorsport gaming?s most spectacular real-car collisions on world famous circuits.

Getting one over on Gran Turismo

By Kevin Barrass from Blyth, Northumberland , 02 Oct 2006

[Highly rated reviewer]

I must say that I am not a big racing game fan. I was glued to Gran Turismo 3 and played that to death, this is just so much faster and so so so much prettier.

Handling for every car has been perfectly modelled and I've been informed by a number of professional racing drivers that the courses are perfectly replicated, giving the exact response you'd expect from the course at every twist and turn.

Whether you want this for a long haul season mode, pick up and play in 'arcade' mode that is still ultra-realistic, or multi-player (both split screen and net-play).

A kick in the teeth for Gran Turismo, a great game.

Good

By a customer from S.East, England , 16 Mar 2007

Very good game, not all the realistic but quite good fun.

Cars flatter your driving but the damage modelling is excellent and sounds are okay
