Codemasters released this gameplay video of Toca Race Driver 3, and it's really worth a look. Even though it's coming to Xbox (and even though the video is from the PC-version), its still really impressive to look at. I'm not talking only about the graphics, but the sense of speed is really great and the AI cars behaves pretty well.

I have 2 questions...
1- It's online?
2- Is Codemaster planning to do a Xbox 360 version of the game?
Decent damage system - makes you look after the car
Yellow caution flags for big crashes,
Black flags for dangerous driving / corner cutting !!!
Awesome TV style replays with split times & other on screen graphics
There's a PC demo online at http://www.codemasters.co.uk/downloads/
I wish it was a 360 game, but i'll be buying anyway
IMO all these PC ports are holding the 360 back. As PS3 has very few PC ports, it can really make some amazing looking games.
We will have to wait for the PC to catch up with 360 before we see amazing graphics(excluding 360 exclusives like halo3).
The last toca race driver was horrible in that department.. simply like you were driving on ice with a paper car... no weight at all... yuk...
And that's a damn shame.. because it had a lot of cool race tracks in it.. the online part was fun as well, but it lacked good handling...
I just wish they would not cover that many racing leagues.. only do the ones that really matter.. truck racing was fun for one go, but who was planning on doing that online all the time? same goes for rally driving.. awful stuff...
The gambella seemed to handle better though.. the track looked good as well.. the draw distance is amazing again... now if only they could implement a full working cockpit view with hands and steering wheel again like the first toca, and get the physics right, i will buy it again.. it needs to be on the 360 as well... :)

Anyways, this game looks kickass...I've always liked the Toca games, and since its more of a simulation game like GT, I'd pick this over PGR3. But its also gonna have monster trucks too...so im sold.
Seriously, thats like saying taking a piss is more of the same...
Heads up: racing games ARE more of the same, the only difference is gameplay is tweaked and new features are added.
This looks great.
