How did I get duped by the hype? the graphics and AI suck and detract from the rest of the good elements of the game.

while I agree that there are some awesome elements to this game, just try any of the varied saloon / GT cars that are awesomely done from physics to sound etc which hints at the games heritage, there are some major flaws that ruin the experience for the realists among us. Just try racing in the World tour 1960's GP lotus to see what I mean, AI that drives very aggressive to say the least (often driving striaght through you with no apparent damage to their car while your fragile ride disinigrates at the slightest touch. the Rally cars which were hyped to be much improved are still far from realistic and often feel very much like rollerskates in glass, A major contributor to the lack of "your rally there" feel is the very poor quality first person (driver) graphics, while the tracks and environments are very well done the actual car is very nasty looking, just drive an open wheel car are look at the front wheels and you will see what I mean. This game has some of the best potential with some great tracks, championships, and damage systems I've seen in a game, pity that it was let down on some very basic points. heres to TOCA 4 with even more of the troubles put to rest.
