I will keep this short because it will say pretty much what the rest do...great graphics, deep gameplay, and wonderful number of cars (although I could personally do with a few less of the "reward" cars you earn). If you played Forza on the original X Box, this game will seem VERY familiar. In fact, most of the tracks are the same. There are quite a few more cars this time around, and the variety DOES ensure there's one or two in there for everyone. Overall...if you are a car nut, DEFINITELY pick this game up. If you are just looking for a racer...I'd still say the Need for Speed series is your best bet (I received "Most Wanted" free when I bought my 360, and I'd honestly say it's still more fun to play) With that said...there are MANY more things to love than to hate in Forza...you can't go wrong!
Forza - even better

I purchased the original Forza for $[...] and then spent $[...] for a console to play it. Love the game and it is very realistic. Forza 2 steps up the game with added realism, better graphics and more tuning options. If you want a game, this isn't it, if you want real racing simulation - you've got to get Forza 2.
Using this with the Microsoft Force Feedback racing wheel is almost like driving the real cars - I should know I own 2 high end sports cars.
Best Driving game available.

This game rocks it is the best driving game available right now. The graphics are second to none. The tune ability of the cars and paint options are fun and an important addition to the game. The game does take a bit to get used to as far as driving the cars and cornering in the cars. The online playability is excellent and competition is fierce. The only thing I really did miss is the weather there is none its always blue skies and sunny. What about rain or fog or even night driving. Overall lots of fun though
Not as groundbreaking as the original--needs original tracks

The driving, car modeling, online play, online auction, and car painting are better than ever. If you want a racing sim, this is it.
However, I'm supremely disappointed in the omission of some great tracks from the last installment for the original XBOX: Tokyo, New York Long (the short track on Forza 2 is BORING), Road America, Shipyards, Hill Climbs . . all gone.
The tracks that are there are great, and there are some notable additions, and they're all nicely realistic and represented. It's just unfathomable that they would remove content from a MORE expensive game on a NEXT GEN console!!
Good price for a must-have

I got this game for thirty-some odd bucks on sale. Well worth it, for the multiplayer and the realistic simulation approach.
Test-Drive Unlimited is more fun, but nothing on xbox touches Forza for the realism. I can't compare to Gran Turismo, as I haven't touched the series since #2.
Worth every penny!

I had heard good reviews about this game so you can imagine my excitement when a friend actually gave me a full promotional copy of it! It hasn't left my 360 since that day two weeks ago! Amazing realism, graphics and fun!

Don't get me wrong. I love the Forza games with all my heart. Personally I love the series more than the Gran Turismo series, but this isn't much of an improvement over the first game. The interface, physics and damage are improved, but you would think the graphics would've gotten a bit crisper, with sharper textures. I would still pick this over the first Forza and Gran Turismo 4 (I don't know about GT5 though...it looks awfully awesome), but theres just things that Turn 10 could've really added and/or done to make it a whole lot better.
Fun Racing Game

I enjoy playing Forza Motorsport 2. It has good driving dynamics and an interesting selection of cars. The paint feature is suprisingly fun. If you look around the web, some people paint cars that are works of art. It will be interesting to see how GT5 one-ups this version of Forza.

This is one of those games where almost everything about it works: the car customization is extremely detailed (tune it up, test it, tune it up again - it's almost too realistic); the car selection is to die for (over 300 top models from all over the world); the simulation is spot-on; there are a million upgrades you can get; and last but not least, while some complained about the graphics (the motionless clouds, the intermittent choppiness), I felt like they were more-than-suitable, if not top-notch (the cars are rendered beautifully though, which is the most important thing). The one small complaint I have is the limited, slightly repetitive race-track selection - while it's cool that players have the choice to pick which tournament they want to play (or re-play), I wish Forza just added a few more different ones for variety. Otherwise, racing fans, this is the one to get: not Colin, not even PGR4 come close to beating the success of this game. Hours and hours of gameplay are guaranteed.
cool game great used game price

Looks real, but not as real as grand turismo. But it beats GT in the customization field hands down. Good physics like GT. Has car damage too, cool! GT looks and feels a little realer to me though! If they make a forza 3 and include all the features forza 2 has now plus more tracks and alot more cars and more photo-realistic graphics, Forza 3 will kill GT hands down!! Good game, great used game price!!!
