    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap, Great game

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Limited damage engine

    Project Gotham Racing 2 is one of the most successful titles on the original xbox. I'd even go as far as saying it's up their with Halo 2 challenging for the top spot as one of the best xbox games ever. It is a driving game and it is brilliant. Playability & Enjoyment This game is very enjoyable to play, there is plenty of different challenges to complete and it gets and harder and harder as you go up levels which makes the game have a very good learning curve. This game will give you lots of enjoyment as it can be played on xbox live and their is lots of fun to be had on here with various ... more

    4 Stars Project Gotham Racing 2 great game great price 07/07/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages budget title, real life cities, nice car line up, online play

    Disadvantages Disadvantages sometimes repetitive challenges, damage system could be better

    Project Gotham Racing 2 ************ Game History ************ Back in 2000, Metropolis Street Racer (MSR) launched into the market and was an instant success; I was one of the many proud Dreamcast owners who had bought this game. MSR had tried something new with its racing system. You would progress by just driving fast and beating the other racers to the finish line, but it was all about driving with style and still winning the race, so you would have to power slide your way around the streets of 3 real-life cities around the world! Project Gotham Racing 1 and 2, have kept the similar system ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages New style of gameplay, addictive, great online.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Impossible to complete

    Here's another Game released in early 2004! The Project Gotham Racing series has to be one of the most popular X-BOX racing games available. With rivals like Playstation's Gran Turismo series, PGR has already a well established competitor. PGR needed to find a way to set itself apart from the competition and they certainly have done so. The game play is totally different from other racing games. You don't modify the cars at all, or earn money. PGR found another ways to keep myself and zillions of others out there, totally hooked! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Basic Outline. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The PGR series ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great game, better scoring system

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Removed some good features

    This is not just a sequel. It's not just an improvement. It's a great game in it's own right. So lets start from the beginning. ----------------------------------------​------ Project Gotham Racing -9 / 10 ----------------------------------------​------ This was one of the release titles for the Xbox. It was designed to show off the graphics, the sound and the playability that Xbox could provide. It did a tremendous job. Not only was it a great racing game, it was an original racing game. The basic aim of the game was to get Kudos. These are points, based on several things. Firstly, you get ... more

    5 Stars Style Daddy! 18/08/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages The graphics, much gameplay to be enjoyed especially, Xbox Live and cars control very well

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Sometimes opponents will spin you car with the slightest of touches.

    --------Introduction-------- This is a (PAL) review of the Xbox classic Project Gotham Racing 2 (PGR2) that was released in Europe in November 2003. The game is a racing game so your ultimate goal will be to become the best driver in the world today…with style! The racing game is a vastly crowded genre, but fortunately this stands out as one of the best money can buy. --------Gameplay--------- Driving with style gains players Kudos, and upon earning enough of these points your Kudos Rank will increase. The benefit of acquiring a higher and higher Kudos Rank is that the Kudos Tokens received as ... more

    4 Stars PGR Storms The Roads Again 04/12/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Gotta love Kudos

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Soundtrack disappoints me

    Two years after Project Gothem Racing was released onto the Xbox comes the anticipated Project Gothem Racing 2. What makes both the game's really good is in my opinion gaining Kudos in lots of different ways which will be explained later. So to start off is the handling. This game is not like Burnout, you wont be travelling at ridiculous speeds steering madly all over the place, instead you use drifting and accurate steering to maneuver your way around the games huge selection of tracks. The word to describe the feeling is "tense", you don't get the ability to swerve all over the course ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages good line up on cars, excellent graphics, real cities to race in

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Repetitive towards end

    This isn't just a normal racing game. It is an exceptionally realistic racing game. As before from pgr1 'Kudos' are still used, and to great effect. Kudos are now given for a bigger range of different racing techniques and tactics ranging from the overtake right through to the challenging 360 turn. There are three different modes you can play while on PGR2. Kudos World Series, this is the main single-player mode in PGR2. It consists of 14 different car classes. you start racing with MINI Coopers and cars like that, then you work up to track specialists like Ferrari Enzo. Also in single-player ... more

    5 Stars Project Gotham racing 2 review! 14/01/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Many levels, well-known cars, great graphics, 1-4 players

    Disadvantages Disadvantages So many levels that repetition can get tedious

    Project Gotham Racing 2 is a great game for any age. It tests not only your speed, but also your skill and style rewarding you for how you drive more than how fast you drive. Because of this, you will find that going as fast as you can round the circuit, making terrible turns, will not help you! HOW you make the turn is quite often the crucial factor. There are 5 different race styles within single player mode: 1) One on one - You versus 1 other computer oponent. To win, you must simply beat the other racer 2) Street race - 4 to 8 cars, you have to place 3rd upwards to win, depending on ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Wide variety of cars to choose from

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Night racing mode a bit too dark

    If you are seeking an XBOX racing game, Project Gotham 2 is definitely the one for you. Basically, Project Gotham is quite a fun and realistic racing game, with great graphics, sounds and cool cars. There are many more tracks and cars on XBOX Live service. In the game, you have to drive as wild and crazy as possible without losing control in order to accumulate Kudos points that allow you to purchase new cars to use. Drifting and drafting (following closely to the car in front of you), picking the best line through the corner and several other techniques will also allow you to rack up Kudos ... more
