Screens & Info Updated: 8/26/2005 Ahead of the games’ arrival, Codemasters also announces a unique ‘custom soundtrack’ feature in TOCA Race Driver 2. An absolute first for any PSP title, this audio option lets you place your choice of music on a portable Memory Stick and then customise your own soundtracks to play while you’re tearing up the circuits.
All you need to create your own in-game play list is the Exact Audio Copy utility, which will be available as a free download from www.codemasters.co.uk/downloads (in Upgrades) from PSP launch day. Just download the Exact Audio Copy to a PC, hook up your PSP, with a Memory Stick Duo, via USB and put your own audio CD in the PC’s CD drive. In no time at all, you’ll have your choice of music on the Memory Stick Duo. Now, next time you’re ready to take to the circuits in the game, just enable the Custom Soundtrack feature from the game’s options and race while listening to your own compilation of music! In addition to the custom soundtrack feature, TOCA Race Driver 2 also delivers another first in PSP gaming. Exploiting the PSP’s Wireless networking ability to the full, TOCA Race Driver 2 enables up to 12 players to fight it out on the track, more than any other game to date. It’ll feel like a real race meet you hear all the screams of anguish or triumph as you race face-to-face in some of the world’s greatest race cars.
One thing the PSP will not have a shortage of, is racing games. Especially with Codemasters at the wheel. Codemasters’ most extensive motorsport game is also coming to the handheld, in a PSP edition of the acclaimed TOCA Race Driver 2: The Ultimate Racing Simulator. With real performance cars, real damage, real physics, and real driver AI, the PSP edition is being created by Sumo Digital, the company responsible for developing the home edition of Outrun 2, and utilises the latest TOCA game engine created by Codemasters’ renowned motor racing game studio. TOCA Race Driver 2 on PSP will cram in all 15 different motorsports as featured in the PlayStation 2 edition - including GT Sports Car Racing, Street Racing, Rally, DTM, V8 Supercars, Global GT Lights, Rally Cross, Formula Ford, Open Wheel Grand Prix, Classic Car Racing, Super Truck Racing, Stockcar Oval Racing, Ice-Racing, Convertible Racing, and Performance Cars - along with over 30 different global championships and 52 circuits. Most significantly, even on PSP, the game will display up to 21 cars racing on track simultaneously and have WiFi-enabled LAN play for up to 12 players.
