Forza Motorsport 2 is the best racing game that i have ever played and in my opinion is better than other racing games such as PGR 4, Burnout Paradise, and Grid. Now that it is only 20 dollars, everyone who owns an xbox should get this game.
What's great about it: fun, good graphics, good customization
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: So many options

I'd love to see a bigger variety of older cars, even those we see on the roads; sure, it's fun to drive Ferraris, Race cars from Le Mans and F1, but I'd love to see what my 2000 Accord would sound/feel like with better tires, upgrades, etc...
What's great about it: Realistic physics of the cars and tracks
What's not so great: Not enough new tracks; too many similar cars

This game provides with a long interesting experience unlike many other racing games. Forza 2 shows that the Xbox 360 is capable of performing correctly in a racing game. The game has something for everyone. The game is a highly accurate racing simulator which allows you to upgrade and tune your cars. This is not similar to a game like Need For Speed. This would be a great game for anyone who actually likes cars, or racing.
What's great about it: Very realistic game, many cars, very good graphics
What's not so great: The game falls off near the end

When i bought this game i thought it was a very good racing simulation game. When i played for a while, it really got boring, the races are very repetitive, i like customizing my car from body to paint, the online car auctions are pretty cool, the tournaments online are also a nice feature plus you can win real things if you win one, but there was another side to this game, when ever anyone downloads a new car from the marketplace it is almost unbeatable, when you get all of the cars that you are after it feels like there is nothing to do but race. racing the same tracks can only keep you entertained for so long.
What's great about it: customize car, tournaments to win real things online, car tuning, online car auctions
What's not so great: very repetitive after a while, when you get the cars you are after its like there is nothing left to do

This is a good game but not a great racing game. What I mean is that it does nothing different from any othing racing game. It is a very good game but it does not add anything to the racing genre it just feeds you everything thats already their in a new look. All things considered it is not that it is not a good game because it is a very good game but it gives us nothing new.
What's great about it: nice graphics good controls
What's not so great: nothing spectacular

This was just a great driving game. Tons of cars to choose from and customize. Some great car mechanics for amazing detail to crashes and how the car will work afterwards. Great Game.
What's great about it: It has great controls, gameplay, graphics, and detail to car mechanics.
What's not so great: Some different things, to keep people from the repetitiveness, would be nice.

Forza 2 is a very good game in many ways. The graphics and car details are phenomenal and couldnt be better. The physics of the cars are very real and fun to master. My only complaint against this game is that it can get very repetitive after a while, especially in long races. Some races are 20-30 laps and can take half an hour. These races end up being dreaded and not that fun. I still recommend this game because the multiplayer is very fun and the single player is very addicting.
What's great about it: Very realistic. Great graphics.
What's not so great: Gets repetitive

This racing game was one of the best that I have ever played. The car simulation was just so realistic and amazing beyond words. The auction house built in to the game is cool because you can bid on the art designs made by other people. The tracks are just like the ones in real life because one of the tracks I played called Road Atlanta I had been to before. The track and scenery was just so comparable to the real thing. I was so surprised when I bought the game because I originally didn't think it would be this good. 10/10
What's great about it: Large Selection of Cars, Many Tracks, Built-in auction house for cars, Multi-player
What's not so great: some would say it loads slowly
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a top of the line racing sim type game. Alot of customization to be done. Very realistic racing, but if you are a fan of arcade racers then you will be disappointed. You can not just hold it wide open around corners, everything needs to be done with finesse. Be sure you like this type of game b4 you buy it. Gran turismo lovers will be in heaven.
What's great about it: graphics and detail
What's not so great: not enough tracks

This game should appeal to those interested in real driving simulation. There are plenty of awesome cars to drive and each one can be custom tuned to your driving style. Graphics are excellent.
What's great about it: Very lifelike driving simulation. Many excellent cars to unlock
What's not so great: Not enough action, no music during game play only menus

This game is an okay game, but then again, I don't enjoy many racing games. The problem with this game is mainly the repetitiveness of it, there's only about 6 tracks and you need to race about a thousand races on these 6 maps to get anywhere, which is a real turn-off for me. I haven't bothered to go online with it as I don't even feel like competing with anyone for a useless title. I prefer racing games that don't make you slow down for a turn, so my final verdict would be: go buy a need for speed game.
What's great about it: Achievements, fun for a day
What's not so great: Boring, extremely repetitive
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I thought I'll add a review of my own since I finally finished the game. To start of, let me just say, the game is long. You race according to each race requirements. For example, All Wheel Drive car event, or Corvette only events. It took me awhile to finish because it gets repetitive. Also, some circuits are just variations of one circuit. Although, the game is repetitive, a lot of kudos goes to the graphics and physics which made the game feel realistic. The customizing can be done by using the available decals, or you can completely personalize your car by reshaping the given shapes. The online play is fun and competitive.
What's great about it: great physics, great graphics, good amount of cars, personal customization
What's not so great: gets boring after awhile

i own alot of games for xbox 360 and i can honsetly say i ve spent the most time playing this one. originally being a gran turismo fan, i was at first skeptical about how forza would measure up but once i picked it up i didnt put it down for months, until i had beaten all the game had to offer. excellent graphics, realistic physics and car damage (which is adjustable, like many other factors), intelligent A.I. and a ridiculous array of cars to choose from and own. this is far and away the best racing game i ve ever owned, i cannot wait until the next installment.
