This is by far my favorite game for the PS2 it has all the characteristics of a great PS2 game. Awesome graphics, great sounds, and amazing game play. This game has the best of both worlds with a realistic racing simulation and abundance of licensed cars that I could never afford in real life. I have never beaten this game, it is almost impossible to beat 100% without spending what I believe is a little to much time in front of the TV. This is the racing simulator that I cut my teeth on. I have a great deal of admiration for the developers that took the time to create what I believe to be one of if not the perfect racing game. I just got TOCA 3 and that puts up a good fight to GT 3 and 4; but its lack of vehicle ownership is what sets the games apart. Without the ability to own all the cars I win and race any of them whenever our wherever I want TOCA 3 falls just short of the GT3 or 4.
