An Amazing Game~Online and Off
When Project Gotham Racing came out back in 2001, people had mixed feelings. It was a fun game, with an emphasis on style. It had great graphics, dozens of cars, and a huge single player. There were some problems though. It was extremely hard in areas, people wanted more cars (only 80 or so in the first), and the multiplayer wasn't very fun. Because it was hard for people to just pick up the controller and play...Well, Project Gotham Racing 2 has everything the first one did, and so much...

Finally a Gran Turismo for the Xbox - with multiplayer!
First the good news: you finally get rewarded for driving a good line. All us Gran Turismo 3 drivers used to be mighty confused about being rewarded for sliding through a turn when a well-executed line is faster and more elegant! So now you can slide, or nail the apex, and still get points. (You still get more for sliding though.)It's a great racing game. The physics are good, and the vehicles respond as you'd expect them to. The AI is much better than the GT3 AI. It's easier to unlock new ...

The most ambitious racing game ever created!
While I am not a racing purist, I loved the first Project Gotham racing and enjoy playing most racing games on my Xbox and PS2. It also appears that I'm the only reviewer at this point who has completed Project Gotham 2.For newbies and PG1 players, progressing through the game has been made considerably easier than the first game and you can easily teach yourself the ropes of each track and car class by playing for a bronze medal. Also you can jump into the super cars even if you haven't "unl...

An Xbox Must-Have!
I'm not even a race game fan and this is simply amazing! I've only played it single-player so far but it is extremely addictive and fun. For a new player, the lower difficulty levels are easy enough so you can quickly begin buying new cars - and getting new cars does make a huge difference. There are some races and challenges I tried dozens of times in one car only to switch to another car and win the first or second time. The graphics are awesome. The car selection and track selection a...

Good....but not as good as the first one...
First off...I don't have X-box live; so I'm ONLY covering the single-player aspect of this game; which is, quite frankly, a little disappointing. The developers have taken many of the things that made PGR1 GREAT and tweaked them in a fashion that ranges from a little disappointing to outrageously infuriating. It almost seems as if the game was rushed into release because Microsoft needed a Christmas title that could (at least partially) help deflect lost revenues from the disappointing delays ...

Huge disappointment as a sequel
The original Project Gotham had so many things that worked beautifully it was a complete surprise. The kudos system was a fun new tweak to an old genre, the controls were fantastic, and the ability to play your own music was great. Unfortunately, PGR2 has killed a great deal of what made the orignal fun.First of all, the controls are entirely different, and not for the better. Veterans of PGR1 who had mastered the F50 will be surprised and annoyed at how ridiculously awkward it is to even get...

great game
Get this game, its GREAT. No matter how good or bad you are, you can change the difficulty BEFORE the race. There are many reviewers who have been complaining about this game being too hard. And although I must say it is very difficult, I have met MANY people online who have beaten this on the HARDEST setting...it is therefore NOT impossible. This is not a game for those ...

The greatest racing game on the market today
I'm a big video game player and have tried out racing games since the days of Sega Genesis, but this trumps them all as the best racing game I've ever played.
The original Project Gotham racing was a very decent game with a high level of graphics and great playability. But the sequel is leaps and bounds better than the original. When you want to show someone ...
