Almost the same as its first release with no stress drifting and turning at the race circuits

if you played RR and think RR2 has more to offer, it would be "NO"! bascially the gameplay is still the same. i have been playing for about an hour, the race-courses look like from RR for tournament 1 - 10. RR2 maybe with 5 new race circuits that are designed with more drastic turns and night racing. however this does not create any difficulties for me to win almost all races requiring me to qualify for the next touramnet. so far i have completed 16 series of tournaments coming in as 1st with one time 2nd out of the basic series of the world tour. from tournament 11 onwards, there are new courses (but few) with very drastic turns (about 90 to 100 degree). one need different race car with different speed range and drift types to complete the racing to emerge as winner. now, i have completed the basic tourament series. i am moving into Pro which has about another 16 touraments. upon winning a tourament, cars, video footage, tournaments are unlocked.

the game allows multiplayer racing via wireless a-hoc mode, either to host or join the wireless competiton. perhaps they might add a server for the RR fans to compete internationally, nothing new in this part of gameplay.

having said that the new game with the old spice doesn't add new favour, RR2 does feature new selections ie; "arcade" and "survival" modes which requires you to select a race car and complete the circuit within the specific time or knock out based on 3 laps per race respectively. so far i have not tried these 2 new modes thoroughly as i am keen to complete the world tour.

if you have not play RR, then RR2 is good buy for all the good old racing days.
