This game can blow you away with its extremely impressive AI and damage system but dont let your experiance let you down

User Rating: 9.3 | GTR 2 PC
If you were (and still are) a big fan of the EA f1 and NASCAR Racing simulations, this will be the next classic in your collection. With just as impressive graphics and realism, this makes it dominate the racing sims market. Although it takes a while to get used to using the controls, you will not regret it at all. The best part about this game is the damage system and the day to night and weather transitions. However, on the realism side of things, such as the driving aids, ect, this let me down a bit compared to the original GTR. If you compare this game with all the latest racing sims (e.g ToCA race driver 3, GT4, Test drive unlimited), this has to be the most realistic and challenging of them all. The only thing that is really missing on the ToCA series are some driving aids and dynamic weather. The AI is also a bit cheesy, but still a relatively good game to play. GTR2 will make you learn about car setups (which are vital in thîs game) to get the most of your car. The wrong setup can ruin your race or make you practise more than you have ever done. The AI in GTR2 is like they say "a bit too hard to beat"(which is realistic to be honest). You will have to make sure you make no errors, or you will have to build up your race all over again. so in conclusion, and excellent game for beginners (due to the driving school) and a strong competition for pro drivers. hope you enjoy the game!
