The Bottom Line:

"Best in series"

In the very first race when you use that bad GTR, the second it started I thought 'well this is exacly the same as the first' and then my car fliped over and got wrecked to pecies. Im the top driver level and its NOT easy to get (unless your cheap like me). I still play the game now and I think its an exellent mix of arcade and racing sim. Im happy its not as real as forza (I dont own an xbox, ive just seen a friend playing it) because the second you crash you have to pay way to much money, and there's the flashback tool which should only be used in dirt,well it would be good if that was in the game but its only a minor flaw. There are way more cars and tracks and everycar (almost) has works conversion, which I find is great because I hated it in shift 1 where you had a teir 4 car and couldnt upgrade it one bit, but now you can. The driving controlls are the same as the first and are still easy to use. The new helmet cam allows you to look at upcoming turns which can take a while getting used to but once you do it will help alot. All I can say is bad is that some times you wish there was just one more car (well I dont have all the boss cars but still) and its frozen on me once or twice and there was this one glitch where there was no sound but that wasnt bad. to sum this up the game is WAY better than the first, which was already really good.
