TOCA Race Driver 3
Great racing simulation

It is a great game, with many many hours of racing and -- as far as I know -- very accurate.

TOCA Race Driver 3
Not a big leap from CMR mac
Written by CB from Bangkok

I have Colin McRae Rally mac, and I'm not bashing this product because it doesn't work at all on my G5 iMac... I can run it on my 2.4Ghz macbook.
But for a game that only runs on the latest Intel macs, one would think to expect more. In comparison to a game that runs on a G5 (I'm talking about CMR mac), RaceDriver 3 fails to impress:
- Graphics are not any better. In fact, the graphics look even more 'flat' here than they do in Colin McRae rally !
- Damage and dirt modeling seems... well... not as spectacular. In CMR you -REALLY- see your car get dirty and damaged. Here... there's not much, until you really total you car -- and even then it doesn't -feel- damaged enough!
- I couldn't get 900º steering support on my G25 wheel. I've seen someone else post they did. I hope I'm just not doing something right, because this game is SUPPOSED to have 900º support!
- Rally cars and Touring cars are different animals indeed -- but even with the offroad tracks in the demo, it just doesn't -feel- like you're bouncing around on the dirt like you should. And the dirt doesn't even look like dirt -- it looks like a tiled wooden floor you're racing on (feels like it too)!
To be honest, I was expecting this to be a lot more than Colin McRae Rally was. It isn't. I'm still glad I had bought CMR when I did, and CMR is still more exhilarating to play than this newer game by Feral is!18 of 35 people found this useful

Yes. This game is good.

This is by far the best racing game to ever come to Mac. If you like Gran Turismo, you will love this one, it is very similar . Definitely need a game controller to keep up, I couldn't pass the 2nd race until I connected my old iShock. So far I am 12% through the challenges and I look forward to continuing on. I might invest in a wheel set-up and really enjoy. The range of cars is awesome, from sandrails to Indy cars and everything in between. Each new car presents a new learning curve on how to drive it. Power to weight ratios, tires sizes, suspension styles; I have yet to see a game deliver like this one.
I have tried many racing games for the Mac. My first Apple was the Apple II+.

Not good at all

DON' T buy this product. I wouldn' t even recommend it for simulation fans. It has bad graphics and the sound is really getting on my nerves. It is overpriced and not worth a cent. I've tried the demo and all I can say: bad, bad, bad at all
