Steven Hopper: When the first Forza Motorsport hit the original Xbox, it offered gamers a great and authentic driving experience filled with a ton of details and cars, as well as online features that weren’t offered in the rival Gran Turismo series. The sequel, Forza Motorsport 2, raises the bar even further with improved vehicle physics, a silky smooth framerate, and deep online community elements. If you’re looking for an authentic and deep racer this year, look no further than Forza 2. Natalie Romano: It’s all about the cars and the circuit racing and this game delivers on all cylinders. With a whopping number of cars and ways to customize them, car enthusiasts will simply adore this racing game. Eduardo Zacarias: The car enthusiast in me fell in love with this game thanks to all those cars and options to design your car skins. The racing fan in me simply loves the strict yet enjoyable circuit racing action and the excellent online community features. Simply put, Forza Motorsport 2 is racing heaven. Nick Valentino: The first was a love letter to racing and Microsoft’s answer to Sony’s Gran Turismo but this second one is just one of the most amazing, difficult and fun racing games fit for your Xbox 360. Brandon Folkers: Forza Motorsport burst onto the racing scene a few years back with serious contention for the genre lead thanks to the meticulous aspects implemented throughout the game. Forza 2 continued this trend by upping the ante ten-fold, with more detail, more vehicles, more tracks, and more overall excitement for Xbox 360 fans and racing fans alike. Noted as a Game of the Year contender from the starting line, Forza Motorsport 2 is easily on the same level as any respected racing series in the genre. Angelina Sandoval: The Forza series is still a challenging and demanding game but, you know, that’s what we love about this series. It’s also the most exciting and fun racer you will play this year.
