Project gotham racing 2 (PGR2)

GRAPHICS--9.1
THE grapics in this game are great down to the shine on ur enzo ferrari down to the helmet on ur driver. lots of detail has been packed into the cars especially. ur own numberplate has lighting effects and is a nice little touch to the game. ur surroundings have been given a few packs of pixels u culd say and b4 a race, it zooms around the track. as it was doing this i saw a bike on a footpath.it looked as if they focused everything on that bike grafix wise but...trully amazing.
the lighting effects on the car are awesome. the best i have seen in any game. that shine on a car really makes u not wanna hurt it.

SOUND--9.3
the muscle roar on ur own skyline is almost scary. its as if a beast has been packed into it. even when u dont have 5.1 surround, it sounds great. when ur on gravel, its fun driving and hearing the pebels hitting your car and feeling the vibrations in the controller. it really makes u feel as if ur really there. the sounds of ur tyres wearing down after a slide is fun to hear and trully, i mean it, trully makes u feel like ur there. the sound of ur beautiful car being smashed in by a person behind is depressing, but realistic.
being able to put ur own soundtracks on is great like listening to cochise from audioslave while weaving in and out of cars really is fun.


A.I--7.5

the A.I. is not the best ull see as they only stick to one drive path. they can get rather frustrating in the early modes as u go into a tight corner and they all crask into eachother. also annoying when ur trying not to damage ur car not becoz it does anything to the engine or anything like that which is good, its just a mentl thing i have where i dont wanna hurt the car lol. especially your own ferrari F50. dam thats annoying.

FUNFACTOR--9.0

im not even a racing car fan but it still is the best racer i have played. ever. with 5 difficulty levels for each race and being able to get more K for the higher difficulty, it's kind on bad racers.
the cone challenge being my fav race where u have to go through 2 orange cones scattered through out the track. ur pretty much trying to get a huge combo and take risks and get a big score in a very flexible time limit.
hot lap also is a great mode having to get below or at the specific time said.
the kudos is great as even after u have finished every mode and the kudos world series, u will still wanna race with trying to get slides, drafting, overtakes and many other things, this really expand the games lifespan.

GAMEPLAY--9.5

this game is not easy,nor is it impossible to bad racers out there. even if u hate racers, i wuld say u shuld get it. its a game that u wont trade in. it just goes on and on and on and it may get boring insome series's but u dont have to play them again if u dont wanna now do u?
kudos really is a nice funfactor, time waster and lifespan maker. i still cant believe that im still playing this game.all modes in the game are great except for street race but everything else is great.

LIFESPAN--8.9

all the modes are like a drug wanting to have u coming back and the kudos keeps the game running. i as i say alot am not a racing car fan but it still goes the distance. its the annoying races that go for ages that really put u off. like a 3 lap race that goes for 10 mins or so. AGGGGHHHHH.

OVERALL--9.3

best racer around for the sorta precision racing fans and street racers alike. get it no matter what price or anything like that. actually, anyone reading this and doesnt have it shuld go and get it now!!!!only if u have an xbox that is...
