This game turned me on to racing games. I love it, and the newer versions don't really do much more for me than this one. The music was great for it, too.

Forza Motorsport vs. Project Gotham Racing 2

I bought this game because it was supposed to be better than Forza Motorsport, which I already played and liked, and I only had an xbox. I would have bought Forza Motorsport 2 if it were on xbox. The game has a pretty good array of cars but the game is more to complete challenges than to race. For example, the challenges that you have to complete are street race, one on one, cone challenge, hot lap,overtake, and speed camera. The races are only 5-10 minutes long if that. The goal is to get points doing different stunts like sliding. The courses are all in cities and you can't go off the road. The damage you take throughout the race does not effect your driving it only effects how many points you get. In conclusion I would rather have Forza than PGR 2.

Project Gotham Racing is a great game. It's fun, it's fantastic, and it looks stellar. It's everything you could ask for in a racing game.

this is one of the best car racing game ive ever had!!!!! is sooo adicting. the graphics are extremly good! the gameplay is freaking good! and the cars.....love them!!!! they have every single car that i love. but beyond all that the details of the cars and the sound is just great.
but there is one really big big problem....ive did like more than 20 races and beat them all. but when ever i tried to go to the next race while is loading the game stops and says that is dirty or scrach. when i opened the xbox i didnt saw not even 1 little scrach. so i though it might be the console, but when i tried my other game that it was a lot lot more dirty then it is as the pgr2 it worked perfectly. i have lots of friends that have the same problem, that really turn me off!!!! careful this game is not well made!

I did not enjoy this game. Compared to a game such as Need for Speed - Most Wanted, it's controls were sluggish and the graphics inferior. I purchased this game for a few bucks at Amazon and sold it for about the same a few weeks later.

Good game

I am hooked on this game. Throttle stearing hard braking and exotic locations what else could you want.

Project Gotham 2 is outstanding in every way. It looks and plays great, and the difficulty is adjustable so nothing will overwhelm even the fleeting gamer. A must buy.

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 what Xbox can do graphically, show them PGR2. The detail in the background and the buildings add to the simulated reality of the game.

With over 100 cars, you're certain to find at least one of your favorites, each with its own unique sound and handling. Plus, instead of having no control over what cars you unlock, you earn Kudos credits and use those to buy the cars of your choice.

They've also added to the racing games with a wider variety of challenges and more medal options so each challenge is not so out-of-reach.

Those who liked the original PGR will love the sequel that is better in almost every way. Those who have yet to buy a racing game for their Xbox would be wise to start here. Plus, at it's discounted price, it's a major deal.

Top Of The Heap. A#1 Racing game

This title is simply a Gem. A fun factory. At the price of $20 or below, buying this title is like getting away with armed robbery at a bank. Bizarre creations and Microsoft Game Studios took home the whole wedding cake with Project Gotham Racing 2. I found this game so good that I had to go back to the store to buy several more copies of it for select family members and colleagues that have a need for speed. If you get to play it online against other ADULTS, it might just hook you for at least a week and you might find yourself playing online as soon as getting home from work for a little while as I did. I still can't believe I did that. This game is not a simulation game, it's not a Gran Turismo killer, nor does it try to be; it's simply an addictive arcade racing game. With a decent TV and component cables, you can appreciate the great graphics this game has to offer. Hook it up to a surround sound system and you're THERE. The music is great too but you can load your own favorite tunes to listen to while you burn some rubber, lead the pack and [...] your pants. This is the only game ever, besides Need For Speed 3: Hot pursuit, that I can just turn on and let the music play like a radio. Specifically, the showroom music in PGR2, while I have a drink and take care of different things around the living room on Friday nites. If you have an Xbox and a need for speed that the law can't let you safisty in the real world, step into PGR2 and quench your thirst. This game is highly recommended.
