Well if this demo represents the full version, I'm gonna pass.
This is a very ordinary racer. Looks very ordinary with not much
advanced or improved from Toca2. Also handles and drivers very ordinary;
sim or arcade mod.
Only thing it has going for it is variety but big whoop. This is a
rehash of Toca2.

At first I could not even get it to display properly on monitor, just a
black screen during the race with an arrow following a course map. Finally
got it working right after fiddling with graphics setup settings. The game
really looks pretty much below average, and plays poorly. Looks like an
early beta version, not worth the releasing or a download. I am certain that
the final version will look far better given that Toca 2 looked far better
than this demo.
Toca 2 also had alot of potential for decent gameplay and simlike physics,
but codemasters seemed to have maybe rushed it out the door before they had
finished tweaking the variables for physics/handling on each car. Some cars
were adequate but most were almost unplayable. Hopefully they will wait to
get everything right this time, and at least leave the game open enough for
the modders to tweak things more to our liking. I am not going to make the
mistake of preordering this game like I did last year. I will wait to hear
the verdict from others first.
