GRAN TURISMO rules!!!!

Gran Turismo 2 is one of the most realistic driving games out for the PS1. Gran Turismo 2 has a uniquness because it is different to other racing games like Colin McCrey Rally 2.0 it mixes the speedy road racers and amazing rallys into one game. On GT mode there is an amazing amount to do it is unbaleivable you can test your driving abilitys on the tuff new licences such as the IC licence and the Special licence even when you've got all the licences you'll still be trying to get gold on each one.

The Graphics have shaped up nicely since the first game so you can see all your fave cars in beautiful graphics while your racing. Also the amount of manufacures have stormed up since the first game with of Lancia, Vector and so many more. Probably the best thing about this game is the gameplay because you can't glide through the difficulty level so easily on this game it could take you years to win all the racers, get all the licences and tune up your cars to there max power.

One of the most adictive things about this game is the tune up opion which was on Gran Turismo 1 building up your engine with turbos, styling your car with the racing car modifacations and making the handling tip top with tyres and customized gearing you'll be doing it over and over again. If you want to test your car after its beentuned up you can go to car test to your cars Top speed, Fastest time for 400m and its fastest time 1000m.

And if you want a break from all that work you can go arcade and relax with a nice little time trial but if not you can endure the tuffest kind of race an enduance and rock along to the great music and sound effects. This is the kind of game that sold so many playstations. BAD BITS The most annoying thing about this game (and prabably the only) is the memory card glinch, the game seems to be doing OK and when you try to load your memory up it says Cannot Load Data Data May Be Corrupt and you cannot get your saved memory back.

OVERALL This is most definitely the best racer for te Playstation with ace graphics and the best gameplay you could wish for but that one glinch lets it down so much so i'll have to give it 95%

GRAN TURISMO is like wine !!

Gran Turismo 2 is a game like a fine wine, it gets better with time and in this instance nothing could be more right. Developed by Polyphony Digital Inc. this 2 disc game (one the Arcade mode and the other Gran Turismo mode) takes the player and playstation to the limit. The first choice you will have to make is to, which car shall you buy with your 10,000 credits? The answer to that is a cheapy, used banger which looks about ready for the scrap heap, nevertheless next task is to get yourself a license and these separate licences consist of 10 mini tests which you can obtain gold silver or the bronze qualification for.

Once you have completed all 60 tests you can win some extra cash by racing in the wider range of races, which the licences just won allow you to do. The more races won the more cash is made and in turn the better the cars you can buy, and there are only over 600 cars altogether from 33 manufacturers from all around the world (sarcasm intended). The graphics don't deteriorate while you drive and have good effects too, so the 28 treacherous courses including the deadly Laguna Seca don't look plain.

And if your not a road racing person why not rally, it's really up to you because there are races for sports cars, turbocharged cars, NA tuned cars, wagons, the 4 types of cars in the game which are FR, FF, MR and 4 WD plus many many more. You can dive competitively 1 or 2 player and on endurance races you can inflict damage aswell as receiving it. As you can tell Gran Turismo 2 is not a small game and it will take some time to complete as owning every car is a necessity to achieve 100% and full game completion, Top class game.
