5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended, June 14, 2007
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Forza Motorsport 2 (Video Game)
If you're looking for a great racing sim along the lines of the Gran Turismo series, with the in-depth customization aspects of your car's appearance found in the NFS: Underground series, and the online options of the PGR series...then Forza 2 comes highly recommended. It really is a nice combo of those games(ironically, i don't know how well it compares with its direct sibling Forza 1 cause i never played it).

Anyway, the graphics are quite good and more importantly the framerates are 60fps-smooth, which are very important for racing games(esp racers where you drive in a pack). The customization options are extensive and it has been amazing going to websites and seeing what everyone has accomplished by using these comprehensive tools to enhance their cars visually. By itself, this aspect of the game could keep you busy for hrs on end at a time (esp if you have an artistic touch). As for the racing, it's easy to get into as it allows you to customize the difficulty level... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Well Done, Gran Turismo has Serious Competition, August 31, 2007
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Forza Motorsport 2 (Video Game)
Being the only simulation racing game on the Xbox 360 and the closest thing to GT4 since 2004 it is going to be difficult to compare this game to anything currently played. Because of this I will compare it to the game it is quite obviously trying to steal fans from. Forza 2 is unique from any other racing game currently on the 360 simply because it is well executed. It has most of the features of GT4 and none of the problems that franchise had.

The actual racing is very simplistic in its approach. Making the car drive how you want it to is not, especially at the higher levels. At the beginning you can win without tuning the car hardly at all. Go and drive fast and you'll most likely win...on the standard difficulty setting. The difficulty setting unlike the driving is fairly complex and adds another dimension to the game. One is able to toggle on and off the traction control, ABS system and active stability management. Difficulty of the opponents is adjustable three ways... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The NEW Racing Standard, June 3, 2007
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Forza Motorsport 2 (Video Game)
Up until this point, I had always considered Gran Turismo the best racing game on the market. Forza 2 has taken the crown.

There are alot of features I like about this game, I'll limit them to five:

- Simple controls

- Damage system (something Gran Turismo has never had)

- Brilliant UI

- Online features (career, auction house, car gifting)

- Car customization

Currently, I only have two minor issues with the game. One, it's pretty easy to upgrade your car to A Class or S Class after a few races while the computer continues to race D/C Classes. The other issue is that the tracks themselves are a little bland (of course, this is a tradeoff in order to create highly detailed car models and run at 60 fps).

Buy this game. Then buy a GTI and upgrade it to 700HP. Good stuff.
