Ta wapo
The last Forza game that was most obviously trying to directly siphon GT's success. In the process, however, the game shines in it's car variety and presentation, while lacking in the track department (expect to be racing the same routes a lot!).
really good game
This was the first racing game that pried me away from Gran Turismo. It's also the first racing game I played more online than single player.
A very solid racer which still holds up to this day. While more catered to sim racing fans, what's great about forza 2 is that the assists are fully customizable, meaning you can cater the difficulty of the drive as you gradually get better. This really encourages you to gradually reduce the driving assists on the game and test out manual transmission even if you start off as a beginner. Aside from this the game has excellent graphics, handles well and includes a nice selection of vehicles. The track selection is also great and the real life track selection will appeal to racing fans. Super casual racing fans may find this all a little boring, but its hard to deny Forza 2 is one of the best racers on the console.
The only Forza game I've played and I plan to keep it that way because I doubt I would enjoy myself anymore than I did with this.
