I just recieved Email from UBI which stated the cost of TOCA to US
will be $71.00 US .... includes shipping ... seems a bit stiff with
all the other sims out there.

You think thats stiff, us Canadians will probably be paying around
$85.  It better be one hell of a sim to cost that much!!

If you reckon the game should cost 40ish here plus about 5-7 to ship
to the US it seems that you guys are in for being seriously robbed by
someone...ask a relative to ship it to you from the UK!

Minimum: P133 and 3Dcard with directX and D3D.It's MMX supported. I'll bet
you'll
 also need 32 MB RAM, but I've not read this anywhere.

Be aware that it does not have setups etc. It's more like an arcade type
game.

Cheers,

Harald

Just received this email after inquiring about purchase over the net of the
PC and Playstation versions for interested parties in North America.

Dear Sir

Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, this game has not been
released yet. The officially release date is the 21st of November.
You may purchase the PC version directly from us but we envisage a
waiting time of about 3-4 weeks before we get any more stock in.

With regards to the PSX version, as the US consoles work on the NTSC
format and we work on the PAL, this version will not be compatible on
your system.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Regards

Mr Jay Patel
Customer Services/Technical Support Manager

Oh sh*t. I was really looking forward to this sim... now you're saying
it's just another Screamer clone :-(

Oh well, it'll mean I have more money in the bank ready for Ubi's F1 :-)

It doesn't have setups, but its not like Sega Rally too :)

It has standard setups that apparently you cannot change, but the cars
all behave differently. Reviewers said the driving felt realistic. If
you drive well and fast you'll win. Remebers me NFS SE , and i loved
that game.
