THE Racing Game!!!
Well, I am a dedicated gamer, especially to racing games and rpg's. I have owned all the Gran Turismo's, and I must say, GT2 is my all-time favorite in the Gran Turismo arena. Of course, the game being made in the late '90s, the graphics cannot hold up to competitors like Need for Speed Underground 2, but the realism of this game is out of control! The amount of cars to choose from is outrageous compared to some of the racing games of the time, like Need For Speed: High Stakes, which came out the same year, but has less than 3% of the choice of fine racing machines to choose from that is offered in GT2. Over 500 cars are available to choose from in GT2, ranging from some of the most exotic cars (i.e.Alfa Romeo, Ashton Martin, Citroen, Lotus, Peugot, Shelby, etc.) to some of the everyday cars, like the Mitsubishi Lancer. The soundtrack on GT2 is hip and totally appropriate, and I personally love it. The game comes with two discs, the simulation mode disc, and the arcade disc. The arcade disc is for those of us who can't wait to race. The simulation mode is deep, and Sony really went out of its way to make sure that you were getting a high quality item when your purchased GT2. An entire reference manual comes with the game, and gives you the low-down on how to optimize your racing skills. Did I mention that this game is compatible with analog control? Thats right, no more having to kill your thumbs trying to turn that corner-you can use the analog control! This feature is one of my favorite, as is the vibration function that lets you feel the road! I don't mean to go on and on, but this game is the one to buy, no matter if your just looking for a quality racing game, or looking to go oldschool from your current PS2, PS3, XBox, or XBox 360 racing games. Oh, did I mention that if your considering buying this game, do it! You won't regret it!Read full review
