ToCA Race Driver 2

John B. Marine | 11:10 PM | |
ToCA Race Driver 2 was released in 2004 and offers many more racing disciplines for players. A variety of race types and machines mean you will be in for an incredible world tour of racing. HOW incredible, though? My blog post will fill you in on what all makes ToCA Race Driver 2 either a great game or a game to pass on. Get ready- it's review time!






ToCA Race Driver 2


Codemasters ToCA Race Driver 2
^ from: www.amazon.com - ToCA Race Driver features many disciplines of motorsport with races taking place all over the world.

ToCA Race Driver 2 is bent on dominating many more disciplines of motorsport besides [mostly] touring car racing. In addition to the usual suspects of racing, you are also met with different other disciplines of motorsport apart from basic touring cars. Your racing will take place in many different countries and continents. It was released to PlayStation 2, XBOX, and PC in 2004.

ToCA Race Driver 2's story goes away from the cinematic masterpiece that was ToCA Race Driver. Instead, you are trying to ascend your way from low-level racing up to the highs of the Masters Grand Prix (in other words, Formula 1). Doing so involves trying to rack up loads of money. You start small before having the chance of a lifetime to race in the prestigious Masters Grand Prix. Along the way are hot-headed drivers, some underhanded and sneaky moments, and much more in your quest to become one of the world's greatest racers. Take on each challenge as best as you can and work to become the greatest driver in the world!


Vehicles.

The vehicles you race with are a mixed bag of different disciplines and cars. You go from low-level touring cars up to high-end GT cars. You compete with low-powered formula cars before going up to the Masters Grand Prix cars. You even race in pickup trucks, big rig trucks, rally cars, and rally raid style machines. Again- a little of everything in ToCA Race Driver 2. This also includes a combination of licensed vehicles and non-licensed vehicles. Unlike in the previous ToCA Race Driver, you can suffer terminal damage. A hard-enough hit can result in your car being too damaged to repair. So be careful as you race.

You can race extra cars for championships with success in the Simulator Modes.


Locations.

There are many courses spread across four or five continents. There are a few fictional courses among the diverse lineup of tracks. Tracks can be raced on in the daytime, in rainy conditions, or in sunset. Tracks include ovals, road courses, street courses, and some off-road tracks.

You can run any number of laps around tracks. You can even run the full distance races in the Simulator Modes. Races can be a quick sprint race including full-length races such as with the Bathurst 1000.


Races and Championships.

If you do the Career Mode, you will be met with the game's main story. This is where you go from having no money and given no chance to being your own superstar. I am being tight-lipped about the details of the story. Regardless, this is something you'll slowly learn of as you progress through the game.

ToCA Race Driver 2 is a bit of a game-changer in regards to racing types. A big part of this is in the simulation of realistic racing rules. Racing in the Simulation Mode will allow you to compete in some series with individual rules. For a lot of the series, you can run races based on various rules. For example, you can race in some series that have a second race with a grid based on the reverse finishing order of the first race. There are a total of 30 races, but you can unlock three more series to have a grand total of 33 series to race in. You will surely be kept busy here.

You can unlock more series by racing in the main story mode. You can also do some online racing if you fancy online racing.

ToCA Race Driver 2: Final Thoughts


I personally like ToCA Race Driver 2 the most of the ToCA Race Driver trilogy. It is the most forgiving with a variety of racing machines to choose from. The game features some great graphics. The tracks and cars are done in a fabulous manner. The storyline from the previous ToCA Race Driver was pretty mundane at times. Thankfully, ToCA Race Driver 2's storyline is a bit more engaging and fun. Maybe my only complaint is that some races can be pretty tough to win. Thankfully, the races themselves are not fully frustrating. So you have more leeway in this game than you do in the previous ToCA. With many races to choose from on a variety of tracks, it is tough to really get bored with the race variety. I don't think you will be disappointed in the least sense with the action this game provides.

For PlayStation 2 (also for other platforms), here is the game I've made mention to all post long:
