Shelved this just a day in since really it's just FM1 with better visuals.
Did every arcade exhibition race except the Nurburgring, saw arcade had time trials that unlocked cars too and didn't wanna bother. Didn't even progress in career after seeing it had the same progression.

I'd just say read my FM1 review and you got 2. Just more cars and better visuals here, more polish. I'd recommend this one over 1 in that case, even if I couldn't be bothered to do anything in it. But that's just because I have burnout from 1 still. Might revisit it someday and at least get halfway through the career.
