Look at the date that midnight club 2 came out, and now look at the date i am writing this review. Midnight club 2 came out AGES ago but yet i still play it because it was so well put together. The soundtrack to the game is probably my favourite game soundtrack of all time. The gameplay is impeccable because there is so much action, like if you are a lamer who likes games that are really easy and love thrashing the computer because of this, then do not expect to like MC2. This game is challenging which makes it even more enjoyable to play, if you manage to thrash the computer (which is highly unlikely) thats when you can tell yourself that you are a Don. The graphics are above average (seen as there is midnight club 3 out) but this is hardly noticable due to the great gameplay and great audio. Alot of races to win, alot of cars to win, 3 cities to explore, choose your own path to the finish line, outrun the cops, race bikes against cars, vanish in the distance with nitro, life like car physics including slipstream turbo which is basically driving behind one of your opponents cars so that they take the wind resistance for you which slows them down and cause a slingshot like effect which enables you to speed right past them due to the fact that your vehicle has not taken any wind resistance (hopefully that makes sense), the characters in the game are entertaining due to the fact that they think they are street Gods until you beat them and take their car!! to the guy who said it looks like GTA3- that is a complete lie. BASICALLY WHAT IM TRYING TO SAY IS... THIS GAMES OWNS. FINISH THIS, AND THEN GO AND BUY MIDNIGHT CLUB 3. PEEEEEEEEAAAAAACCCCEEEE.

The best racing game so far

I like this game so much because, it lets you use NOS or Nitro.When you get farther in the game you can use NOS three times!Also when you get farther in the game you can get motorsycles! With a motorsycle you can do a weelie!
It also has the car from "The Fast and the Furious" With the engine showing in the front. If you don't have this game I would
recomend it.

After reading all these positive feedbacks about this *must-have* racing game, I finally made the purchase though I have had Need for Speed Underground. What a disappintment!!!!!!!
This game is terrible, not comparable to NFS. There is no PHYSICS in the game, you can drive the car anywhere you want, I mean anywhere... You can drive up the 45 degrees hill with no problem; you can turn at 80MPH and the car won't flip...
I am still confused at those who gave high rating for this game. Am I playing another version of Midnight Club II????

this is a well graphic game and i think

Wow...how could you not give this game a 5 star rating?it's the first racing game to let you use NOS,the first racing game to have you involved in the game even when finding people to race instead of just signing up for events like in Test Drive or Apex.
The graphics are good,LA,Paris,and tokyo has insane jumps and good backgrounds,plus the the AI comes off challenging but still beatable.My only complaint is the lack of a custom soundtrack option.it would be awesome to drive around listening to the 2 fast 2 furious soundtrack or some 50 Cent or JT Money.Anyway you gotta go buy this game right now.get your a$$ out of that chair you're sitting in reading this and go to your nearest [local store]and pick it up!

A must play....

I thought that this game would be a great game.
I played it a lot and realized that Midtown Madness 3
is a much better game for the XBOX. MC2 was fun for a
couple of hours but MM3 is still fun after a week of
constant playing.

Midnight club 2 is a great game for racing fans and its not just racing its nos and the awsom cars. Its fun that u have to go out a find someone to race them. And if you can't beat them then u can go find a different racer. The best thing is my older sister likes it and the only other game she likes is ssx. The detail of the citys are awesome.

HOPE YOU LIKE IT

I'm not a racer

The good: I'm not a racer but I heard this game was coming and finally found it yesterday. I played it for a few hours and I'm hooked already. I used the cruise mode and found all sorts of hidden jumps throughout the LA. Look in the construction area for a good one and over the water/storm ditches. Just when you think you're sick of driving in LA, you find some other secret route through (or under) a building. The city looks great (except the pedestrians). The "near miss" scenarios as you're driving 120 mph through a red light are cool too. I've played demos where you barely clip another car and it sends you flying out of control. This game allows you to keep control much easier.

The bad: I spent hours in "Cruise" mode and it gave me a choice in transmissions (auto and manual in multiple types). I decided to do the "Bomb" game and it defaulted to a manual transmission and I was lost. I didn't know what button was what until I paused and checked the book. It wouldn't let me change transmissions. You're stuck with a piece of [junk] car to begin with and all the other cars have nitro etc so they consistantly kicked my behind.

I haven't bought a driving controller yet so I will look for one next. Maybe it will make it even better.

Overall it's an awesome game with great detailing and control. I will have to look up a few cheats just to see how they are.

STINX!!!

This game is a big dissapointment and a huge waste of money. I bought this because I heard it was good and I can't stand it. The only reason I played it at all was because I spent $50 on it and couldn't return it. I love racing games, so it's pretty hard for me not to like a car game. All these other people are probably giving it a good rating because they just got it and played it for 5 mins. or don't even have it at all. If your looking for a really good racing game, go with Midtown Madness 3. That games alot better and plus it's made by Microsoft. You'll have a much better time with that, I promise!
