Same here! For ages, it was the only racing game that had a version of Oulton Park in it!
I remember trying to set it up in multiplayer and realising that it only supported IPX/SPX standard. The Betamax of network protocols if ever there was one.

What Grid 2 shouldve been. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out - liking the part focused more on team battles and telling your team mate how to behave in the race. If it has Oulton Park i'll be getting it hehe.....really hope they put some of the british tracks in that were featured in the first TOCAs.
Slightly disappointed its not on PS4 - wouldve finally given me a reason to think about getting it.

Used to love Toca 2 on the PC, back in the old Super Touring 2000 days. I can still remember finding the Fiesta a right handful round Thruxton using a keyboard at the time. I've still my boxed copy in the loft, along with GP2.
Toca Race Driver series never quite had the same magic for me. The first Grid was OK, but tried to master too many genres such as drifting, touge, destruction derby, but never quite any of them right compared to the competition. Never bothered with Grid 2, it was one of those games that I'd pick it up when its sub £20, but then never have, I have a feeling this may end up being the same, but will reserve judgement until its released.

GP2c was an epic game! spent many an hour playing that.
I'm looking forward to this new Grid, I'm quite glad its coming out on ps3 as it means I can delay my purchase of a next gen console (wairing for fallout4 to come out)

I still play toca 2 on my ps, simply one of the best racing games ever made.
I remember that it was one of the first racing games to have see through glass on the car models and bits of bodywork that hung on before falling off later in the lap.
I would love codemasters to do a game focusing solely on the btcc package, pretty much a update of toca 2, with all the support races featured, ginettas, porsches, clio cup, formula ford etc.
Autosport will fill a void for now though!

I hope this is good, Forza 4 is still the best driving game IMO and my pc is going to waste having to play my xbox to enjoy a driving game.
Is this one going to be a DiRT game in disguise too?
CaptainSlow try Race 07, focuses more on the WTCC but generally pretty good to sink time into.

Cheers bud, I'll look into race 07.
I find it strange that no one ever mentions toca world touring cars on ps1, that was pretty good too.

Loved the original GRID, spent hours and hours on Touring Cars online!
Probably the most fun I've had in an online game.
2 was a little disappointing IMO, failed to keep me entertained like the first.
This looks good though. Anyone wanting it on PC I would recommend CDKeys, just bought my copy for £16!

Exactly what I had planned haha
Cant fault them, got Watch_Dogs for £22 iirc, and i got the code a day early!
Quick vid of my impeccable driving skills :rasp:
Quite liking it atm, playing on hard with an Xbox 360 controller. I heard that it supports wheels etc so i shall be testing out my G27 on it soon. The graphics are great, and the AI is alot better than Grid 2 imo.

I only played one full race and got bored with it. The graphics are average, (below average for a new game), but every car I tried I found to just drift everywhere. Maybe it was just me but it just felt rubbish to drive in.

I couldn't even manage to finish one race. The cars feel like they're floating and as you say they seem to drift all the time.

Its ironic that right at the end of the PS3 life cycle the best racing game by far comes out - just picked this up yesterday....the actual racing is superb. The best AI ive come across - feels like youre driving against human players. The AI battle each other aswell...i saw a car roll out ahead of me from going too wide. Hugely recommended if anyone is annoyed by the Project Cars delay.
