Gran Turismo 2 for PlayStation 1

Pros: Sickening number of cars to pick, tons of race modes, lots of tracks
Cons: Graphics aren't greatly improved, rushed out a bit too early

Gran Turismo 2 is hands down the premier racer on any game console, much less PlayStation. Sure the graphics aren't too much improved, and it was rushed out the door a bit, but it is still the best single racing game ever.

Of course, the hook...

Pros: Lots of race circuits, great physics model, rally mode
Cons: Only about a fifth of the 592 cars are worth owning

"Can we give a game an 11?" - EGM, WInter 1999

Though Gran Turismo 2 is not in the least a poor or even just-good game, calling it perfect is insane. Because of all it's graphical and completion flaws (you can only achieve 98%...

Pros: Over 500 Cars, Excellent Graphics, Customize Everything
Cons: No Exotic Cars(Ferrari/Lamborghini, etc.), No Car Damage

Gran Turismo 2 is one of my all time favorite Playstation games as well as one of my favorite videogames ever. I bought this game off of a friend for about ten dollars and I have gotten much more in enjoyment out of it. It takes awhile to learn how to...

Pros: more cars, more tracks, more options
Cons: graphics between this game and the first GT are nearly the same

Gran Turismo was a true cutting-edge racing simulation game. I love how the game's creators gave it such in-depth realism for a home video game system. And when I first heard the rumors of a sequel, I really didn't know how the geniuses at Sony could...

Pros: awesome cars, amazing graphics, the ability to tune your cars
Cons: no damage, occasionally some problems with graphics

I wish I was witty so I could grab your attention with a clever play on words or something, but I'm not. Allow me to get right to the meat of my opinion. Being the broke, lazy slacker that we all know I am, I didn't buy Gran Turismo 2 at all...rather,...

Pros: Good Graphics, Many Cars to choose from and Many Tracks
Cons: Nondriving Music, Too many of some cars and No Special Stage 11

Gran Tourismo 2(GT2) may not be the most realistic racing game from the stand point of physics, but it is pretty good. The thing that makes this game is the huge variety of cars to choose from. Though heavily slanted to Japanese cars there are many...

Pros: Great cars, tracks, concept
Cons: Bad overall interface, bad for console gaming, perfect for computer.

The concept for GT2 is a good one. Take actual manufactured cars and pit them against each other on various tracks. In fact, it's what Namco's Ridge Racer series should have been.

While the racing itself is great there are a few things I did...

Pros: Its a challenge
Cons: Need a memory card

I just purchased the playstation about two weeks ago and had to buy a game, so I got Gran Turismo 2 (I heard a lot about it). This game is something else. The only downside to me is that I need to go back and get a memory card (I am new at...

Pros: Graphics, number of cars, beutifuly made.
Cons: The Virus.

So I can play this game forever, forever in my room!

Seriously, folks, this game is the best racing game ever. Not that I’m a fan of the genre. I mean, come on, about ten of them come out every week, and nine of them suck, while the other...

Pros: Realism, number of cars and races
Cons: A few minor glitches - read about them in the review

Gran Tourismo 2 is one of the most entertaining, highly replay-able games on the market. It truly is a driving simulator. Real physics are applied to each individual car in this game to actually give you the feel of what it is like to drive that car at...

Pros: Unsurpassed realism, 400+ cars to choose from
Cons: Spotty usability and navigation

The rally events are the big surprise in GT 2 in my opinion. What seems like an afterthought from the marketing perspective (I didn't hear a lot about the rally capability) absolutely makes this game. Of course, the allure of the German manufacturers...

Pros: Hours and hours of entertainment; and soo lifelike
Cons: None that I can think of. . .

If you are a racing sim fan then you will love this one. My husband has both games; and waited anxiously for this one to come out. He had played the first one for soo long and knew that the new one coming out was supposed to be better. And amazingly...

Pros: Best title in it's genre. Tons of cars.
Cons: Horrible graphics, tough to control cars.

Background Info
Gran Turismo was an instant smash to Sony's PSone game console. And it has now made it's way to the greatest hits list. Both GT 1 and GT 2 can be purchased for a reasonable $19.99! It is without a doubt the most successful...

Pros: good
Cons: excellent

Once in a short while, a new game is released. Sometimes, this game will either be one of the best damn games, or one of the worst. When Gran Turismo 1 came out in mid 1998, it brought every single racing game to it's knees. But, when Gran Turismo 2 was...

Pros: Everything
Cons: none.

I was going to wait until I had beaten the game, but seeing that that is going to take a little longer than expected, HERE I GO>>>>
The Game is Everything The Gran Turismo was, and much much much more. Every car I have ever wanted to...
