Best first car |
| Toby from Nottingham, England says (16/Feb/2004): |
If you have had GT1 and you know that the Misubishi GTO twinturbo is the best car you will want it on GT2 look its not there (trust me) well not under the same name its the 3000gt select info and you will see that it is GTO in Japan and 3000gt everywhere else. I have one of the best garages ever 'Speed 12(809 bhp), Viper, concept car, ZZ 2, gt40 race car they are awsome' and a load of others I am looking for a good old car recomend one please email me thebigt_< remove me > at mad.scientist.com . Also a brilliant FF car is the spoon civic mine has 236 bhp but it can kick cars with 300 bhp well good car.

Advice on what Cars and races to Do |
| BeeF from Edmonton, Canada says (20/Mar/2004): |
Allo, here are some of the best cars (i think) that do VERY well, At all times try to buy a used verson of the car u want, much cheaper and usually better. I found the Toyota Cellica a good first car (used). I then bought a Mazda RX-7 (this car is alright, it is a FR car so it can spin out easily). One of the best all around car is the Lancer IV Evolution, it has really good acceralation, a good top speed, and not bad turning if u supe it up (the Subaru Imprez STi is about the same as the Lancer). When your earn 2,000,000 credits BUY a Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peaks Verson(it has a horse power of over 900) this car is So worth buying with excelent acceralation, beautiful top speed, and awesome turning. Another Good car for 591 Horse Power races is the Audi S4, supe it up to 588 Hp and upgarde everyting else (i even gave it the Racing paint job) it is a 4WD so it hugs the road, giving the advantage on turns. Also The Nissan Skyline is a very good choice when buying (i own like 7 diff versons of the skyline).
P.S I have been playin for only 360 GT2 days and own 37 cars, have 62% of the game done and have 7,000,000 credits (altogether in cars and stuff i have had 17,000,000 credits). I dont play all that much either like mabye and 1 hour 1/2 a day

greatest racing game on the planet!!!!!! |
| Toby Halicki from Newnan, GA, USA#1 says (17/Sep/2002): |
GT 2 is quite truly the very best racing game ever. After I played it on a friend's PSone, I went out and bought a memory card to save my cars and setup--even before I had bought my own PSone! When i finally had my own system, I began to explore the limits of the game until I had won every single gold medal on every single race--simulation and arcade mode. One of the best things I did was win the Escudo(best overall car of the game). When you're drivin' the Escudo, nothing even comes close! Well, did I quit after I had conquered--oh no. One of the greatest things about GT2 is the wide variety of new & used cars. If you the big money races, you get an expensive trophy car which you can then sell to build up your GT2 empire. I had long since been forced to start "weeding out" my stable since I had reached the limit of 100cars and my cash was knocking on 2 Million when I decided to see what the GameShark-lite had to offer. It didn't seem like it was going to be worth the money when I first installed it, but then I noticed some strange affects it had on some of my cars. I own a Nissan 180 drag car; the GS lite made the little Nissan handle VERY strangely. When you nail the throttle, the car does a wheelstand 1st gear, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, & 5th--also very hard to drive. Also, my Spoon Civic will not turn--at all. If you try to steer, the car simply slides to the side of the screen--very disconcerting since I really love my Spoon. One other benefit of the GS-Lite is unlimited money-now my cash is more than I can count--and more than you can spend. You also get all the licenses-mostly all gold trophies. If you decide to go back and get gold on the ones GS lite had bronze in, you can win a Spoon S-2000. I now have 200 cars(2 memory cards-about to start 3rd)among which are all the special versions, the other cars are race versions(where available) and all are tricked out to the max- every option on every car. You ask, "When will it stop?" never! I am more excited about GT2 now than ever. Sure GT3 has better graphics and stuff , but give me the GT3 graphics with the GT2 selection of cars. GT2 is the standard by which all other racing games are measured. PERIOD

The BEST racing game |
| David Kronberg from Des Moines, Iowa says (6/Aug/2000): |
This is the best racing game for the playstation by far.
It REALLY pushes the playstation to the limits.
The graphics are as good as it gets.
The game play is great. Not to easy and not to hard, though it is a bit too difficult for my tastes in some races.
Definitely worth buying.

no match to this amazing game |
| james linsey from london , england says (1/Dec/2000): |
This is the best racing game i have ever played in my life.it justifies the fun of racing on a computer screen. the graphics are simply breath taking and the cars are matched perfectly to real cars. this is a challenging game and took me a while to get any cars at all although there are some faults these are phased out once you have played the game.

Simply the BEST |
| Jim from London, UK says (13/Jan/2001): |
This is not only the best racing game on the PSX, but simply the BEST GAME EVER on the PSX. Gameplay is amazing, you just have to do it again and again, even if you win. Replay`s are awsome, just like watching the tele. Can you imagine driving a 1011hp racing car, well you can with GT2. I just can`t praise this game enough, I have been gaming on the PC for 20 years now an have never found anything that compare`s to GT2. If you like racing cars, then get Grand Turismo 2. AMAZING 20/10

THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN COMPARE TO THIS AWESOME GAME!! |
| speedfreak from Plymouth, England says (17/Jan/2001): |
Gran Turismo 2 is THE best racing game that I have ever played. The gameplay is fabulous, it'll keep you going for months with a wide variety of cars and tracks to race. Have you ever encountered cars with 800 or 900 bhp, well now you can experience the thrills of driving these incredible monsters of ultimate speed! Buy new cars and tweak them till they are awesomely powerful and sell old ones that just aren't up to the brilliant standard that you now come to expect.
Watch breathtaking replays that blow you away and save your favourite ones into your own file to show to all your friends or for you to admire the brilliance this game offers you.
Overall (even though I repeat myself!) this is a BRILLIANT,AWESOME AND BREATHTAKING game that I would recommend to any Playstation owner, even if racing games aren't your type you will be surprised at the imense quality of this game! 10/10 definitely!

nice but some bugs |
| A gamer from danielson says (10/Apr/2001): |
I love the game but there are some minor gripes such as the speed its slow compared to the first game but they most likely slowed the game down to make it more playable. And 2 there this little bug that erases all my saved data after a period of time (100 days in the game) but other than that its a great game!

playing tips |
| SHAINE from FARWELL MICHIGAN U.S.A. says (21/Apr/2001): |
I have been playing for about a year now and have beaten and restarted many times. The best way to jump into the action is to get your licenses and but a cheap car put the exhuste level 3/the cheapest way to got 20 HP/and then put on sport tires. Race in the Gran Turismo league and win all the flags, then race untill you have saved $500,000 buy the opal tigre ice race car under the special icon it says you get 400+bhp but you really get 500+bhp go back to the flag races and turn the page there you race three laps and get $50,000 plus a car you can sell for $250,000. get rich quick and drive a super car that sort of reminds me of the FTO LIMITED EDITION from the first Gran Turismo. good luck and drive safe.

A Flawless Racing Legend |
| Matt Boyd from Orangeville, Ontario, Canada says (26/Aug/2001): |
I loved this game from the first time that I played it. The graphics were actually quite good for a racing game. I say that because most racing games don't have graphics that turn heads but gt2 did. The realiness was what really keeps me playing it, how you kan upgrade your car with hundreds of parts. It is also nice to have hundreds of cars to buy and with almost infinite number of tracks to race on this game is just the best. The gameplay is fantastic as well with realistic steering and lifelike cars. I reacemend this game to anybody who likes good games, buy this game you'll love it every day.

The BEST racing game of all time! |
| A gamer from Phoenix, Arizona says (31/Aug/2001): |
Gran Turismo 2 is one of the best racing games of all time! It blows most other racing games out of the water! The graphics are great! I like how you can buy over 300 cars and then modify them.
For instance, I bought a Chevrolet Camaro with around 270 HP. With around $200,000 in modifications I got it to about 615 HP!
Hint: save up your money for a long time and play the all star race on super speedway if you have a good enough car. Because of doing that I have about 1.6 million dollars and about 97 cars. I also like how in the east city you can buy used cars. I have one complaint: where's the Ferraris,Lamborghinis,and Porsches. It's fun to drive at speeds at which most people will never go in real life.

Best Racing Game what ever made !! |
| Darth Adios from iisalmi Finland says (12/Nov/2001): |
Gran Turismo 2 is still best racing game ! Car collection is great but not perfect ! Graphics are old of course 2 years old game ! Game looks good on PS2 ! there is many all-round cars (can win many races) !! Rally jumps is not so realistic like Colin McRae ! I own all Gran Turismo`s 1,2,3 but Gran Turismo 2 is absolutely BEST !!!! Sounds are good every car is own motorsound ! real life i inspect cars on sound after buy this game !!! Music is bad like college-band !!
|
Its the Best Racing game!!!! |
| Jeroen from Norfolk, Va USA says (22/Jan/2002): |
Gran Turismo 2 is the hottest racing game around! I have played other racing games before but not like this! The game has a whole variety of cars to choose from, from city kind of cars to those supersportcars. The graphics rules out the whole game! The tracks such as the Laguna Seca raceway looks real and exact. Its so realistic that the gameplay and the replays seems lifelike almost! The music totally rocks & the sounds from the cars sound realistic but doesnt really sound all that real when you have some cars that sound exactly like the others. To my opinion, there is no other driving simulator better than Gran Turismo titles. This game can be a great addition to your playstation game library!!! Get this game!

the most realistic racing game available ever!! |
| karl clohessy from north-west england says (26/Mar/2002): |
Gran Turismo 2 has shocked the world by outdoing the original gran turismo by miles. It has left me thinking about cars in a whole new way, the graphics are so realistic and clear that the cars look so real and life-like, the sound is amazing, but theres one song that puts me off when im racing, its that one where that women is singing edgy cadilllac, it is boring and stupid that song is. The lifespan of this game is outmatched with over 600 cars and 33 companies to choose from, simply amazing, the vector M12 car looks amazing and i suggest that you consider buying one on the game. The cars on this game will blow your mind and leave you in pieces with the excitement that this game provides. A high octane thriller-ride of a game that i think everyone on the face of gods green earth should experience as it is the greatest game available for the king of consoles playstation. I kid you not my frends, but this game and you will not be dissapointed one tiny bit at all, i bought it for a laugh thinking that it would get a good selling price for my frend to buy but i suddenly got hooked on it and i can never put it down,im on it all nite and day because it is so addictive and fun, if you absouloutly love cars then this game will make you the happiest man or woman on this earth. Nice goin Gran Turismo 2 !!

Playstations Finest!!! |
| Billy from Wisconsin,USA says (28/Jun/2002): |
OK well this is the best game ever. I love it. Its so addicting like on how if you want a car and you need 50,000 you'll race till you got 100,000. Yeah but I just wanted to let everyone know the best car in the game. It is the Susuki Escodu Pikes Peak Version. It has 991 horse power and it is 4-wheel-drive but its 2million dollars. Well catch you on the flip side. O Yeah if you dont agree on the Susuki being the best car, email me and tell me what is?

Great game!!!! |
| Ronnie Pirtle from Herrin IL. U.S.A. says (1/Oct/2002): |
I've been playing video games since 1975 and Grand Turismo 2 is by far the most realistic driving game I've ever played! It has a few bugs in it like --NEVER SAVE AFTER TESTING YOUR CAR!!! your data will be gone. I learned that the hard way. the other bug is cool you can test your cars top speed at (motor sports land) you turn around after the 2nd turn hug the wall then get on the road must be on road when going into the black abiss. its hard but, if you get ALL GOLD on ALL LICENSE TEST you get a cool car for each license.never owned a game genie so that was tough!! i love the test course time trial as of now escudo is my champ with 43.951 lap. I'm shure i'll have it beat it the next few days. I've had the game for about 2 yrs. now and i still love playing it. not bad graphics for the playstation. but it's the realism and handling for each car that makes Grand Turismo 2 the ultimate Driving game!!!I hope as technology inproves on graphics in the future. we don't loose the realism that Grand Trismo 2 gives us today!!!

greatest simulation game |
| courtjoker from carrollton, ohio, usa says (11/Dec/2002): |
gran turismo 2 is the greatest simulation game ever, it has everything a car enthusiest would want, it has muscle cars. the specs are almost perfect and the driving is great. in real life skylines have 280 hp though. and the escudo is only one engine. other than that the reality of the game is perfect. its like you do have ten vipers in your gerage. every time i turn on my tv to play it i get exited.

Escudo: Second Fastest Car |
| A gamer from lewisville,TX says (18/Mar/2003): |
The fastest car in the game is earned in: special events,tuned turbo cars, and test course. The car is a [R] HKS R-33 drag w/ 1011 horse untuned.EPPV is gone. p.s.[R] stands for racing specs. Also: 1rst in this race wins 50,000 credits. Gran turismo 2 is really cool and I am trying to get GT3!!!!. Keep playing the game and enjoy

best car game EVER!!!!!!!!!!! |
| car fan from puerto rico says (8/May/2003): |
this is the best racing game i have ever played in my life you can do almost everything you can do in real life with a car it has alot of cars.i played GT3 too but the bad thing is that it doesnt have any muscle cars and only has like 200+ cars and the only bad thing about GT2 is the graphics because ive already gotten used to the graphics of xbox & ps2.
