Seriously, this game is amazing. Offline is as good as online, for once. The graphics are damn good, (honestly, they're not as good as I thought they would be, but IMO, it's a better than GT3. Offline, you have the "garage" and "showroom"...which are both amazingly cool, especially the showroom. It even supports guests for online.

If you're a fan of any type of racing, I'd recommend you this title if you have Xbox live or not.. sure, it can be very hard, especially the sliding, but you'll get used to it in a few hours....:)

BTW, I do own rallisport challenge.

Does PGR2 still have that same crap as PGR1..meaning that just becuase you finished the race in 1st place you didn't actually always WIN the race??? I don't see how they can call that a racing game.

This game is on my list of games to buy when I get my steady cash flow, which should be pretty soon because there is a dairy queen opening up right beside where I live, and guess who's going to pick up an application the second it even looks open? Yea, that's right. Me.

It just shows you the cars you own, and all the other cars under like tarp.....

now, the showroom, shows you all the cars (but they're in different rooms - depending on who makes them... ie. ford has it's own room), and you can go through them by like "walking" around.. and you can take all the cars for test drives, etc.:)

on pgr1 it had that but you could also change it to like the person who finishes first or the kudos, i'm sure you can do the same on pgr2.

I am glad to hear this is a good game guys, but I have a simple question. Does it do split screen multiplayer? I need to find a good multiplayer driving game.

Thanks for the info guys

You know what. I decided to rent PGR2 on Wednesday when I came back home for Thanksgiving weekend, I ended up loving that game big time. PGR2 is definitely my favorite racing game I ever played in my lifetime. Because of that, I went out and bought the game two days later, but I can't open it until Christmas.:( Hopefully, I get a few other great XBL games for Christmas for I can get it.

I have Mario Kart DD but I'm playing PGR2 so much more right now.

Yeah. Believe me, 8 is the perfect number..with 16, there would be too much people.

I can't decide which one of these 2 racing games are the best: Motogp 2 or PGR2. They're both equally brilliant though Motogp 2 has better graphics than PGR2 (the environment I mean). Looking at PGR2's environment, they didn't put alot of detail to it.

How does Burnout 2 fare against PGR2? Can you play Burnout 2 on Live?

Now I’m far from preppy and very far from 90210 zip code, but I'll take an enzo with live competition over Rally anytime. Dirt is for Hogs to keep cool and Kids to make mud pies. ;)

If you need racers to raise your aggression level, look no further then PGR2 and MotoGp2 Both are white-knuckle breath holding racing. Oh, one more thing, an airflow controller would be highly recommended.

I feel that Motogp 2 is slightly better than PGR2. Even the magazines says it. OXM: the UK version gave PGR2 a 9.3 and motogp 2 a 9.4. But they are both very competitive
