TOCA World Touring Cars (GBA)

TOCA World Touring Cars is a 2000 racing video game developed and published by Codemasters for PlayStation and Game Boy Advance. It is the third game in the TOCA series.

When you climb into your touring car for a race, you’ll immediately notice the stark contrast to Formula One vehicles. Touring cars, though based on standard family saloons, are built much sturdier, allowing them to endure a good deal of rough contact during races. This durability not only adds a layer of excitement but also encourages a more aggressive style of racing that can be incredibly fun.

The game prides itself on delivering an authentic racing experience, with cars and tracks meticulously rendered to mirror real-life counterparts. The developers have focused intently on the vehicle dynamics, ensuring that each car exhibits realistic behaviors such as understeering and oversteering, enhancing the overall driving experience.

Adding to the thrill, players have the opportunity to race on world-famous circuits like Hockenheim and Suzuka, bringing a variety of challenging tracks into the mix. Furthermore, the game includes a Two-Player mode, which enriches the competitive aspect. In this mode, players are not only up against each other but also face off against four computer-controlled cars, making for a dynamic and engaging race every time. This setup offers a comprehensive, exhilarating racing experience that captures the essence of touring car competition.
