The TOCA story revolves around a rookie called Ryan Mckane. You have to lead him up the ranks and stuff. The thing thats interesting though is the WWF Smakdown kinda idea. Other drivers will make rivalries with u and so on. Depending on your actions on the track u get different rivalries. Eg. if u are in second and you crash into the lead driver he could get pretty angry and start hating you. Or on the other hand if it is a chapionship deciding race and you smash a driver out meaning another driver can snatch the title then the driver that wins may be come your freind. This can all lead to things such as....

Rivalries:
1) A rival may be more aggresive to you in a race.
2) A rival may try everything to get you penalised for a certain action.
3) You could be turned down by teams as a rival has told them to steer clear of u.
ect...ect.

Freindships:
1)A driver may want you to become his teammate. This could be important in earning a place in a decent team.
2)They could help u out by barging into others to let u passed...ect.

This will lead to a very good and interactive game...i cant wait!




###CLUB FOOTBALL###

All i know is this is a footy game that u play not managed but all the menus will be personalised to the game you buy. Eg u buy arsenal it will be presented in aresenal style. You can buy each team game on the same day. The only thing i can see is that surely it will be hard to get hold of the game u want. I cant see a shop staocking 10 copies of each team.

This is what codies say. (take the space out)

It's just a shame that there will be no Spurs club footie :( Then maybe ther would be an excuse for a spurs topic in the ps2 forum :D

Cool i can't wait until the release of LMA manager!!! But this Club football sounds interesting i'll have to keep my eyes open. But i was wondering if codemasters will be bringing out a new micro machines game, cos i loved the old ones so much!!! I think it'd be good as you go round the snooker table in a 3-d environment and they cud make it a bit more crazy like Crash team racing!

Codemasters are one of my favourite developers at the moment!!
I cant wait for TOCA - Thats looking really impressive!!
LMA Manager should be another quality title - I have 2001 version for PSOne and thats great!!
Mike Tysons Heavyweight Boxing is another Im looking forward to - The demo was pretty good!!
Also they are suppose to be releasing a new footy title called Club Football - There will be several versions available for you own specific team including all the usual teams such as Liverpool, Man U, Arsenal and other big european clubs!! Sounds quite interesting!!
And there's Star Trek Voyager Elite Force!!

Toca Race Driver is one the games I am looking forward too - with the handling of the PSX versions and the PS2 graphics it should be great - quickly being followed by Colin Mcrae 3. Looks like PS2 driving games will finally reach a decent quality level.

The story mode goes something like you area certain driver - cant remember the name and you basically go through a career mode with him. As you win races etc you get offered drives with different teams and work up to better cars etc. I suppose a bit similar to LeMans 24 on PSX.

What's the story mode in TOCA, I've heard this rumour about there being a story in it but I just haven't heard any good details, although I've been away from here for a while so I might have missed the topic.

Anyone care to fill me in (not niterally ;D)
