Toca World Touring Cars has improved on the original and its sequel no end.

New tracks, dozens of cars and the same attention to detail all add up to the best racing game since Grand Turismo.

Players can adjust the suspension, tyres, gear ratios and downforce.

During the race, they can also choose from a series of camera angles, including a view of the track from right behind the wheel.

There are also pitstops, rather good replays and, if you get bored of always losing as I did, you can take your Lexus or Beamer out on to the track and wreck it.

It's surprising the amount of fun one can have from smashing up a £30,000 car, even if it isn't real.

Unlike the first TOCA title, there is a whole range of vehicles to race, such as Peugeots, Lotuses, Alfa Romeos and TVRs.
