RalliSport Challenge 2

Great sequel. Not too bad of a game on it's own,...

Strengths: The focus on rally races (see weaknesses), fairly big Live community and amazing graphics.

Weakness: The focus on rally races and no track races (see strengths), minor technical issues, not too realistic, lack of customizations, no simulation aspects.

Very fun game to play with friends on Xbox Live... but a little boring to play on your own. You can get this game for very cheap virtually anywhere, and it's worth the price. I wouldn't suggest paying anything over $20, however. If you want to pay anything over the realm of $20, shell out the $50 for Forza Motorsport. As for the game, and as mentioned earlier, it can be a blast online, but you...

RalliSport Challenge 2

Strengths: Graphics

Weakness: Not truely realistic

Rallisport Challenge 2 offers a lot of fun for racing fans. Although it doesn't fully simulate the true rally experience, it's still fun to play, especially with friends in the multiplayer mode. The graphics and sound are both very good and helps you enjoy the game.

RalliSport Challenge 2

Strengths: Superb graphics and sound, realistic racing, excellent multiplayer value

Weakness: Poor rally simulation

Microsoft RalliSport Challenge 2 lives up to the reputation built by its predecessor -- and then some! You'll be blown away by the detailed visual and auditory realism of both the cars and the racing environments. Realistic weather effects and racing physics cap off this very well-rounded game. The biggest reason to buy RSC2, even if you have the original, is the full featured multiplayer modes....

RalliSport Challenge 2

Strengths: Fantastic graphics, great sounds, excellent car models, great online play

Weakness: Not for the rally racing simulator fan

RalliSport Challenge 2

Strengths: Topnotch graphics & sound, ultra-smooth frame rate, tight controls, excellent damage modeling

Weakness: May be too unrealistic for rally purists

RalliSport Challenge 2, like it predecessor, is such a fantastic game that even those with no interest in rally racing can still enjoy it. The graphics have improved exponentially (words truly cannot describe the magnificent sights), while the inclusion of online play and crossover races greatly bolsters the gameplay. You can jump right in and tear up the tracks or opt to spend some time...

Rally racing

Strengths: Excellent graphics, great tracks.

Weakness: Poor music, limited control settings.

This is by far the nicest looking rally racing game around. The cars are all super detailed with very well done dirt and damage effects. Additionally, all the tracks are very detailed and realistic. I liked the controls very much, not too much simulation, just an arcade feel, and easy to use. Of all the various modes I enjoyed multiplayer the most, or modes that involve more than one car racing....

Microsoft RalliSport Challenge 2

Strengths: Nice blend of Arcade and RalliSport racing

Weakness: Not many people play it on Xbox Live, Purists won't like it

RalliSport Challenge 2

Strengths: Great graphics and sound, nice variety of cars and types of races, good car physics and online play.

Weakness: Only contains rally races (as the title implies) and no hardcore simulation aspects.

If you're looking for a different brand of racing, different from the GT4s or Forzas of the world, then Rallisport Challenge 2 is the game to get. It's just plain fun racing. While it's incredibly deep, the learning curve isn't too high like the other more complex racing titles so you'll be spending more time enjoying the race rather then trying to learn something from scratch. There are a nice...

Best semi-realistic Xbox racing game

Strengths: Cross between arcade and simulation controls, incredibly detailed graphics, fun variety of tracks/environments

Weakness: None

Xbox racing titles like Need for Speed Underground, Midnight Club 3 and the Burnout series are a blast, but if you're looking for something a little more realistic and challenging, try Rallisport Challenge 2. Don't get me wrong Forza Motorsport and Toca Race Driver 2 are great titles as well, but they're a tad too difficult for those who are used to arcade racing. If you don't care about exact...
