TOCA 2 is also notable for being one of only two Playstation One games (the other being Wipeout 3: Special Edition) to feature a four-player mode using the Playstation's link cable and split-screen at the same time - i.e., four players compete against each other simultaneously using two PlayStation consoles, with two players per console and two television screens.
