The graphics yes a little griny comaired to new versions but old tvs fix that. Its got more cars than gt3, and more cooler cars than gt4. Dirving sim is ok, but not for the weekend gamer or the 6yr old kid, theil get fustrated easily, no online play or rally on this but cheap and worth the money. And I still play it.

I love this game, I bought this game the day it came out, and played it for over a year. My favorite race is with the audi TT, and when you win the race you receive a car worth around 125,000 credits. The only feature I never got to using was the car wash in the game, could never get a car dirty to use it. The graphics are old, but the game is still amazing. The soundtrack at the beginning is the best for all car games. The current best racing game, for me has to be Forza, I like it more than Project Gotham 3.

THE racing game for PSone

Okay, so it's a little old by now, but this rolls all over any racing game on PSone. Sadly, like most PSone games, the graphics aren't very good now. As I remember, GT2's graphics weren't even very good for their time. But the number and variety of cars is better than probably ten PSone racing games combined, and even the mighty GT3. It set a high standard which most games of even this generation struggle with. The opponent AI isn't as lifelike as, say, playing online, but at least you don't have some idiot constantly trying to spin you out. When one of those lame value-priced racing games shows up on shelves, I often ask myself why people can't just dust off any Gran Turismo game and have a lot more fun.

Anything about Gt2

Gt2 has more cars than the first series but these cars are still in the series then eventually deleted by its publisher. Subaru Impreza, Mitsubishi GTO, Nissan Skyline, Ford Mustang and many other cars are included in this version.

So, in Disc 2 or Simulation mode, you have to race for money. Get first place at all the races to get bigger amount of credits. I would recommend as your first car, Toyota Supra '94 or '93 version. Why? It's fast not like the other cars. Then move on with the next cars. As you progress, after some races, you'll be awarded with new car/s.

Go to MY HOME for changing cars (if you have 2 or more cars). You can also see your status. Also you can sell cars. First, look at its value. Then, if you're happy with it, highlight sell and press circle or X to proceed to selling.

To conclude this review, I firmly say that Drive Safely in Real World

Top of the wall!!!!!!!!!!!! a must buy for all GT fans!

This game is better and the cars are badder than ever! More tracks to race, new cars to drive, and better chances to make SOME HARD CASH!! As you upgrade your car it becomes faster and better that what the shop sold you, and there is also a chance of having race paint on your car. In GT you beat even the world champions, got the best cars, ruled the tracks, and made more than a million. Well it's time to challenge more cars, conquer more tracks, and new champs to beat! If you don't buy this game, you're missing out on some racing of a life time, Well what are you waiting for? Bump all cars in your chance of victory money! This is a racing madness. It's catching hold of you. Buy this game and rule the tracks!

Best GT title out.

It edges GT3 by a bit. Though the graphics arn't exactly PS2 quality (obviously), it's the most addicting game I've every played on PSOne.
The graphics are great (for a PSOne game realesed in 1999). The sounds, car SFX and soundtrack, are pretty cool. The gameplay is fun, yet manages to be realistic. A perfect balance.
I highly recommend GT2 to anyone with a PSOne or PS2.

Be a good driver....

...or just get the 2,000,000cr Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak car and you're good to go. Well...I guess you have to be one to get the other. But then again, there's always good old-fashioned patience. Because frankly, Gran Turismo 2 is not going to hand you anything in a hand basket...especially not the aforementioned (best in the game) vehicle. In this game, you have to work for any car worth having. GT2 isn't playing, folks. There are no super cheats or codes (yes, I looked for them) to earn you free credits, skipped races, or magic cars. The best tricks of the game are tips to tune a car properly, which car to use when, and how to avoid spinning out. Yeah, sounds fun, doesn't it?

Well, if you LOVE cars and get off on racing them, this game will be tons of fun for you. Vastly expanded from the original Gran Turismo, GT2 employs practically any car you can think of---from throwback muscle to tuned-out super cars, if you want to drive it, they've got it waiting for you. And not only do they look just as good as if you were seeing them for real, but they sound and FEEL like real cars. Each car has it's own unique driving style and sound, so you'll never be bored...maybe surprised, but never bored. You can customize your own car from the ground up (GT2 lets you customize your wheels this time...yay!) or if you can hold out long enough, you can buy the "special" models from the car distributors.

However, I do have some issues with this game. First of all, the load times can be a bit irritating and it doesn't help when you have to move to so many different screens to get around in the game. Going from a race to another race or back to your garage seem to take forever after saying no to a dozen replays and the save/do not save question that pops up after all races.

Also, I don't take well to formalities in video games. Like the original, GT2 has those wonderful licenses you must obtain in order to race in different competitions. It's like, am I going to be putting lives in danger by playing this game? Why do I need to be tested on everything from braking distance/time to my S-curve technique? I'm not going to listen to the rules anyway, so why put me through it? When it comes down to it, I am awful at those individual trials. Put me in the thick of the action and I can dominate. I just don't get it.

Finally, I wish that the races weren't so predictable and repetitive. Once you get to the point where you know that you are going to win the race before you even leave the starting line, the game gets a little lackluster. All of the other cars follow the same imaginary line (like the license tests make you follow for "optimal performance") every single time out, so I know where they are going before they get there. Why can't cars spin out for no apparent reason (damnit, I do it!) or give me a little competition? Because let's face it, once you get ahead you stay ahead...that is if you have a reasonably suitable car or you don't spin out stupidly at the final turn, of course.

Ah, but I get over the pain of constant winning quickly. I love this game. I wouldn't complain about it so much if I didn't... I wouldn't still be playing it.

P.S. While doing the long, grueling endurance races I recommend turning the sound off and listening to your own music (or nothing, if you prefer) because as much as this game is hailed for its soundtrack choices, they will drive you mad after you hear the same song fifty times in one race.

this game is awesome and the best ever

This game is awesome. The best car is the Viper. I own two of them and I kick butt. Racing Modifications are cool but only let you get into other races. The hardest part is getting the liscences. You have got to get this game!
