Project Gotham Racing 2

"Every gamer should have this game"

When I first stepped into walmart to get this game, I had high hopes, since PGR was so good. When I brought the game home I could barely wait to play it. This game blew the socks off of me, literally...
think of it before? Simply genius. From garage to showroom, everything in this area is perfectly made.
10/10

Graphics: When I popped this game in and started a race, I dropped the controller. The graphics, towns and cars are excellent. I couldn't ask for more. The streets, buildings, everything are modeled off the original thing. I heard some people talking about how there is a ''lack of texture in the cars'', well they are way, way off.
9.5/10

Gameplay: So many modes, so many things to do.
I found so many races to do, like the main Kudos World Challenge, to the cone challenges. Each with their unique aspects. This is what I like so much about this game. The driving is simply great, maybe the AI isn't perfect, but they are still aggressive when they want to. The Kudos system is superb, yet I can't help thinking why didn't we
Sound: Dang, the soundtrack is good, and the screeching of the tires and the revving of the engines, it all makes me want to race some 400HP car on one of the many tracks in this game in real life. The ability to add your own soundtrack is a must-have these days, and sure enough, PGR2 has it.
9.5/10

Xbox live: Let me start off with this comment: Best. Xbox-Live. Racer. Ever. Dang, this game is worth it just for the ability to race several people around the globe by use of Microsoft's ingenious Xbox live function. It just brings a tear to my eye, beating some people named slapjack and rodney in my brand-spankin' new Enzo Ferrari.
10/10

Which, that brings up the car selection...
There are 102 cars total, not including the downloadable ones. That's a major upgrade from the first PGR. From Camaro to Ferrari, it has it. Excellent picks I may add. I always wanted to drive a Camaro SS, without buying one of course.
9/10

Overall: This is a game that you absolutely MUST BUY if you even are remotely able to race. The graphics, controls, cars, Xbox live functions, and all the modes amount to , basically, the best racer ever, in my opinion. I loved this game very much, I guarantee you will too, so go buy it already.
