Best Ever Racing Game

By far the best racing game ever made.
Graphics are beautiful (with the exception of the 4 tracks taken from the previous Saturn version).
The car control is the most realistic of any racing game but might require adjustment for players not familiar with rallying racing techniques.
The 10 year championship is very challenging and makes this game last longer than other racing games.
The replay mode is spectacular and is as close to live TV as can be made on a game system.
Must-Have for racing fans.

I like the game personally since if you take the time to setup everything you can beat the life out of the game. not to try and plug anyone but the unofficial DCM has all the settings you might need for this game as well.
Visually Great

I bought this game with the hopes that it would be more than eye candy and was a bit dissapointed. If you really like racing I dont think that this game is anything more than a tease for what a fun game it could be. Each race last an average of 1 minute just when your getting into it, its over. I know its a time based race but they could have made the courses much larger and given you a a better feel for racing. In arcade mode the game is over in 4 races basically 4 minutes. I returned my copy unsatisfied, if you really enjoy racing pick a game where you can really rip it up for more than 1 minute at a time.
Somewhat Uneventful Driving Game

Just got finished playing Sega Rally 2 ... it was a bit of a disappointment. On the positive side there were many cars to choose from, about 4 tracks, and various modes to play in. But the overall driving model was boring. I think developers could produce much better driving games with what the Dreamcast engine has to offer.
Those searching for a better driving game might want to try CART Racing or Monaco GP. I played them on the Sega demo CD and they were LOTS of fun.
NOT TOO GOOD, BUT OKAY

The game was okay but it could have been better. I think that the time limit and check points are stupid. It takes for ever to do anything. By the time you get up the tracks, you might get too a hard track and you might not make the time so you fail and have to start over. You get three chances but sometimes it's not enough. The graphics are ok but when you slide on dirt, asphalt or any type of racing surface it looks like you are in water. They should have put damage into the game, that might have helped the game a little. I really hope that DC does better at racing games in the future and if not save up for Playstation 2.
please don't buy it

The game was a disappointment to me and, quite frankly, a waste of my money. If you are considering buying this, I beg of you, rent it first. I sure wish I had. The only reason i give it two stars instead of one is because the graphics are nice. Sega tried to make the replay value high by adding the career mode, but the game is too boring to get too involved with it. Save your money, especially when you have "Crazy Taxi" coming out soon.
Great Game

I loved the game but I am a little disappointed at the the cars. I mean there are a lot of cars but most of them are horrible and slide off the track on a straight away! The rest of the game is great with the hard 10 year championship and all but I love the time trials! You can send your times in over there site and see how you rank in North America, Europe, and Japan!
Well really 4.5 stars.

Since amazon is only letting me choose 4 or 5 stars i guess it's closer to 5. Rally2 is to date the best racing game i've ever played on a home console. Not only are the driving machanics accurate but the overall graphic presentation is nice too. This game definately requires skill and some knowledge of suspension tuning will help in the 10 year championship mode. The only thing that keeps the game from really being a perfect 5 stars is the confusing signs and co-driver instructions in the game. Well, that and maybe the fact that the wheels are somewhat angular;). ~K
5 stars if you got the patience

This game has depth so you won't beat it in a week. The best gamers spend months to master the 10 Year Mode. Yes, there is variation. Don't listen to ppl who say this game is just like the Saturn version; it's much bigger. True that the framerate is inconsistent but you can change that by inputting a code at the start. Finally, it's true that there is pop-up but it's hard to notice.
