With the news that Pro Race Driver 2 will have full Xbox Live support, this strikes us as a major disappointment. Times can be uploaded to an Xbox Live scoreboard, but those dreaming of online rallying will have to wait for RalliSport Challenge 2. Those who have seen the series progress from its original inception will welcome the fact that you don't have to 'be' Colin anymore, and can choose to play in one of 21 cars, across four distinctly different classes, in a variety of modes encompassing Championship, Stages, and Rally, each with offline multiplayer varieties - two-player split screen on PS2 and four-player on Xbox. Fortunately Codies appears to have addressed at least some of the issues that many fans had with the last version. Unusually, the Brit publisher has climbed off the canvas with a quickfire version 4.0 that it hopes will keep the flame burning, and presumably stave off these relative newcomers from stealing any more of its thunder. Although the core gameplay was still undoubtedly strong enough to please the faithful, some were disappointed about only being able to drive a Ford Focus, and the company found its flagship product desperately wanting in graphical terms, slipping behind Sony's WRC II on the PS2, and being firmly trounced by DICE's more arcade oriented entrant RalliSport Challenge on the Xbox. The Mitsubishi EVO 7, Subaru Impreza and Citroen Xsara, alongside classic cars, are just some of the vehicles players can take through the mud and rocks.Once the undisputed king of the Rally driving genre, Codemasters came in for a fair bit of flak with last year's slightly disappointing Colin McRae Rally 3. Players can drive in over 20 vehicles constructed in exquisite detail with improved physics and handling, giving the player even more control. Instinctive car handling combined with new championships, custom rallies, new single and multiplayer gaming modes, and unique car part testing deliver the perfect rally gaming experience.

The gear grinding action is more intense than ever in the newest version of this award winning rally racing series. The reality TV style captures the competitive intrigue of 12 drivers battling their way to the top: driving for a Grand Prix team. The immersive story line adds to the excitement by following the player's progression through the ranks of the racing world.

The 31 Race Locations offer 48 tracks, which provide the ultimate racing experience and are a combination of real licensed tracks and fictional tracks. TOCA Race Driver 2 features 35 high-powered, aspirational cars such as Aston Martin and Jaguar.
