''Facts. Figures. Excessive numbers and math. Tuning sliders. Collection. Crazy mods. The Pythagorean Theorem as applied to automotive aerodynamics. "Street cred."
We've seen all of these in racing games in the past few years, in an attempt to spice up the genre. However, these are the very things that developer Codemasters wants to get away from, through their release of the new installment of their Touring Cars (TOCA) Race Driver series. In the developer's words, all of these things take away from what makes racing games fun - that is, the actual thrill and rush of driving itself.
The irony is lost on no one. For years, Codemasters was known for releasing titles in the driving genre that were brutally, unabashedly simulative, and they didn't care who knew it. If you were good enough to wrap your head around the technical presentation of games like Indy Car and get a complete handle their super-precise steering mechanisms, then you'd have a blast. Otherwise, it was back to Need for Speed for you!''

The Humble Codemasters Racing ReBundle 2020 just launched today. It features games like F1 2019, Dirt Rally 2.0, GRID, and more.
This month’s Humble Choice features twelve games. The headliners for June are GRID Ultimate Edition, Supraland, and Hellblade Senua’s Sacrifice. New games are added to Humble Choice on the first Friday of every month.
Was surprised to see Hellblade again, they gave it away last year with Humble Monthly
Definitely felt like Need for Speed, rough around edges,very arcadey but not so polished or pristine and real to the bone!!
NFS all over!!!
Sorry but GT5 has spoiled me!!! Beyond spoiled.
True HD is to good!
Not bad I have to say. Very arcade-ish racer. Great dramatic replays also. I'm a big Gran Turismo fan and after watching a replay I thought to myself "the lads a GT could do with watching one of these replays!"
I'll be keeping an eye out for this one....
