This is my opinion

1) Toca 2 Touring Cars
2) Toca Race Driver 3
3) Toca Touring Car Championship
4) Toca Race Driver
5) Toca Race Driver 2
6) Toca World Touring Cars

This is an apples to oranges comparison, as the BTCC based games differ drastically from the TRD series

I'll choose TOCA2 (much improved over 1) and TRD1 as I'm competitve with it :D

TRD1 has nearly all weather options available for every track, it has the BTCC, and keeps setup simple.

I feel as if I need to be a race engineer in training sometimes with TRD2 and TRD3..

I've only played TRD3. I just got my first video game system early last year.
a friend had a wheel and GT4 and I thought it was pretty cool, so I got one.

well, it wasn't exactly my first - I had an atari 2600 in about '82ish and I had the original Sega in like '87 or so!

but anyway I was looking for something with an F1 car in it and stumbled across Toca.

Then I found this site, and the rest is history!

my old drinking buddies have seen much less of me ever since that happened!

Still occaisionally play TOCA World Touring Cars on the PS1; Monkey Nuts Vauxhall, Freesan Nissan, Loeck BMW,etc. Some great circuits, Road America, Bathurst, grew to love Sugo. Had TOCA 1&2 kept get taken out by Cleland and Thompson, so stopped playing it, didn't agree with getting kicked out of the championship, stupid rule.

I used a cheat, "punchy" ,so you didn't get kicked out of the championship ;)

TRD3 was definetly the best, TOCA Touring Cars 2 was also a great game. Third place for me is TRD2.

Having owned all of the above games bar TRD2 for me Toca2 was the best followed by Toca World Touring cars. You just can't beat the original games!

Lets face it, Codies will never beat the original 'TOCA' games which were based on the BTCC or the WTCC.

TOCA 3 as it was, at the time, the only video game in the US that had semi up to date F1 cars.

1) Toca 2 - So many fond memories, a great tribute to the 1998 season
2) Toca - Got this Christmas 1997 I do believe. Also loved the tanks
3) TRD2 -A good simulator, fun stuff and still a novelty
4) Toca Race Driver - Nice and simple, and a storyline straight out of Hollywood (yeah right)
5) Toca World Touring Cars - Pretty fun stuff. Custom races were a big bonus!
6) TRD3 - Not really an improvement on number 2, so it annoyed me.

Toca 1, LOVE the music during qualifying and the races, also the sound of the cars for some reason. THE game that started TOCA, much better on PC by the way...

I have very fond memories of playing TOCA 2, so it has to take first place... though, it may be because it was pretty much the only game of its genre for years and years.
TRD 1 was very nice too, but it did have some problems for me (probably due to underpowered hardware). I have barely played TRD 2 and it was too "ooh, shiny" for my taste. And I found the original TOCA only fairly recently, when it was severely overwhelmed by age.
I don't think I played any of the others.

By the way... Is that 007 Aston Martin in the TOCA 3 game for XBOX. If it is I guess I have not unlocked enough.

Thanks.

The thing I dont like about Toca is the fact that one cant just run the tracks for free like in Gran Turismo and Forza,plus the damage factor is a bit too much to get used to.

Can't understand why this is like this, why can't you run any vehicle on any track.

They say a free run,but it aint really a true run,you have to do a series to fun those tracks.

My pick is

1) Toca 2 Touring Cars <--there's so many extra car (skins) you can add to it! It's like a racing museum you can play!
2) Toca Race Driver 3 <--lotsa different disciplines to race.
3) Toca Race Driver <--has a Vancouver track so find having my hometown (track) touch really neat!

?? Toca Race Driver 2 <--played demo only, can't really comment
?? Toca World Touring Cars <--never played it, can't comment
