    Very cool. All console or pc? I play call of duty, need for speed underground plus some real time strategy games on pc and sega gt, project gotham 2 and toca race driver 2 on x-box.

    Toca 2 is hands down the best racing simulator ive ever seen and with a wheel/pedal its the next best thing to actually racing. :)

    a screenschot and the description for toca 2

    pulled from: http://www.codemasters.co.uk/tocaracedriver2/

    31 Licensed and Fictional global Race Locations offering 48 tracks including Hockenheim from the German DTM series and Surfers Paradise from the Australian V8 series.

    35 Aspirational Cars, including Ford GT, Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar XKR, Nissan Skyline and AMG-Mercedes CLK.

    Up to 21 Cars on track at once, battling for position.

    Full online play for both platforms including LIVE for Xbox.

    Highly sophisticated physics and handling engine, which combines the instant rewards of an intuitive racer, with the subtlety and nuances commonly associated with a simulation delivers incredibly playable realism.

    The most realistic damage engine ever featured in a racing game affects the performance of every car. Windows smash, doors can be ripped open, and wheels torn from their axles. A head-on collision can leave the player's car a complete wreck of twisted metal and out of the race!!

    The AI will show controlled aggression, making the AI drivers appear very competitive but avoiding unnecessary shunts and bumps.

    A stunning new render engine, will allow for super smooth sixty frame per second graphics, as well as a host of enhanced graphical and video effects.

    Interactive storyline drives you through all 31 Championships.

    that looks pretty cool, i really play ps2 as thats the newest console we have (never got into x box or game cube) Are there any good american cars? Sometimes i like GT2 better than GT3 just because they have some old muscle cars. GT4 is supposed to have quite a few.. and its rumored that a buick will be on it too!

    Its insane. On codemasters site info it says: " Beginners, begin somewhere else " and that is pretty much true cause its HARD!

    Very realistic physics & very fun but frustrating when you've raced the same formula ford track 15 times in a row before you beat it.

    There is some muscle in toca but so far the only thing ive acquired is a shelby 350. Im only on the 3rd series of races.

    GT4 is going to be awesome and so is Burnout 3.

    Im in heaven with all the awesome games coming out and though I do first person shooters on pc nothing beats an easychair, wheel/pedal combo, cold beer and a good driving game on the bigscreen.

    :laugh:

    I'll recommend a game for you both if you like drag racing, "IHRA Drag Racing 2", complete setup from tire softness to how many degrees you want to advance. Very time consuming. (For ps2 btw.)

    My cousin that lives up in your neck of the woods has that game for pc, ive gotten a v12 grand national into either the very low 4's or high 3's had something like 11,000 hp! All ya gotta do is play with the power adders!

    IHRA 2 eh?

    I played the first one for pc a while ago and although amusing the graphics and gameplay were so bad It scared me away from anything with the name IHRA in it.

    I find the Ralley style games allot more entertaining especially when you can buy and sell parts and do different stuff to the car Gran Turismo style.

    I even like Need For Speed: Underground. There's just something
    about ripping through the city and dodging traffic at 160 mph that stays fun.

    Thats why i like midnight club II, though you cant modify the cars, and theyre only modeled after real cars, its still fun to have non linear racing through real life cities

    If like computer games, find midtown madness 1+2, if you look in the dark corners of the internet, you can still find it. Alot of people *make* cars for the game, I've got over 130mb's of addon cars that people have made including a detailed GSX.
