Grab the keys, get in, and take it for a spin around the block……….

I will start off by letting you know I am not much of a race game fan, for no other reason than I just find them boring. That pretty much changed about a year ago when I came across PGR3. Knowing that ForzaMS2 was going to be just as good, if not better, I was really looking forward to its release. It was well worth the wait!

You will see some people say “the graphics are sub par” or “ the trees don’t look so good” or “there is no music during the races”. Well, my response to those people are as follows.

1) Are you playing on a HDTV? If not, too bad!
2) Why are you driving around looking at trees when you should be racing?
3) Throw on your IPOD or learn how to use the music feature of your 360!

This is a RACE game folks, not a nature tour through the hills on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Play the game for what it is. Over all I think the graphics are pretty close to perfect, face it, no matter how good graphics get someone will always complain about them being “sub-par”. Trees, look pretty good when going past them at 180mph also. The audio in the game is top notch for the sounds of a car. I for one like to listen to the sound a car makes while tearing through s-turns as the engine revs up and down and the tires squeal. Options : TONS OF OPTIONS for cars, and tuning them or adding on to them. If you don’t find yourself totally emerged in trying to get “just one more HP” or “just 3 more MPH” out of a car then this game is not for you. Now the fun stuff : There are literally THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of way to customize the appearance of your cars. The paint shop area in this game is DEEEEEP and getting sucked in to making your perfect car just might be more fun them playing the actual game!
