Summary
A Sony PlayStation game called Toca Touring Car Championship (Official Game of the RAC British Touring Car Championship). The box is made of transparent plastic in a square, with a narrow black strip of plastic down the left side, imprinted with 'PlayStation' going from bottom to top vertically. There is a hologram sticker on the bottom left of the plastic case. Once opened the case contains a paper printed insert held in place by small plastic securers to create the cover. It has the PlayStation logo in the top left corner, next to this is the title and small logos of different car manufacturers with a white background. Underneath this is a photographic picture of two racing cars, and in the same box are two logos and a comment from 'Official PlayStation Magazine Awards'. There is a white band below this image with three further logos for different companies or game features. In a silver banner across the base is 'PlayStation Platinum'. Down both right and left sides in the plastic are paper inserts that say 'Toca Touring Car Championship' in black on silver backgrounds with the PlayStation logo at the top end. Back inside the box is a paper information booklet printed in black and white text inside but with colour covers. It has the same cover design as the paper insert. In a black plastic moulded section is the disc itself which is silver with black text including the title, logos and 'platinum', but with a large quantity of black text going around its circumference. The reverse of the disc is black. The back cover is very detailed with multiple game graphics in boxes and general information about game-play, a silver background on the left with PlayStation information and the barcode. At the base from the left are more logos and game information and copyrights etc. Total number of items is 3.
