ToCA Race Driver 3 coming to SkillGround.com

Groove Media Inc. is not wasting any time when it comes to acquiring new games. This week the company revealed that its recently launched subsidiary SkillGround.com (see previous InfoPowa reports) has signed an exclusive license with leading video game publisher Codemasters to bring the top racing title ToCA Race Driver 3 to its proprietary broadband skill gaming platform.

"We're thrilled to bring Codemasters' phenomenal racing franchise to SkillGround. ToCA offers a huge variety of racing options from arcade-style go-karts and lawnmower racing to open wheel F1-level competition. ToCA Race Driver 3 is an exceptional game with something to offer every level of gamer, which makes it a perfect fit for SkillGroundTM," said Jon Walsh, CEO of Groove Media.

"This marks the first in a series of great games from Codemasters and other leading publishers planned for SkillGround in the coming months."

ToCA Race Driver 3, launched in 2006, has earned acclaim from gaming media for its highly realistic game play. The game's explosive visual effects and exciting selection of motorsport disciplines, cars and track styles have earned a huge global following since its 2006 debut.

"For Codemasters, bringing ToCA Race Driver 3 to SkillGroundTM means taking a great game to a new platform with increasing popularity and incredible potential. It's an innovative way to deliver an amazing new experience for gamers," said Peter Chan, Business Worldwide Development Manager for Codemasters.

Cryptologic co-founder Mark Rivkin and at least two other ex-Cryptologic execs are involved in Groove Media.
