"Forza 2 delivers on nearly every aspect you'd want in a Forza sequel. It drives incredibly, it's wonderfully presented, and it's rich with modes and features. If you've got even an inkling of a theory that you might like driving games, you need to play Forza 2."
--Alex Navarro, GameSpot
|
"No one is gong to complain about Forza Motorsport 2¡¯s ambition and final scale; this game is huge, and attempts to compact every aspect of [road racing] car culture onto a single, silvery disc. It¡¯s actually hard to find anything in Forza Motorsport 2 to complain about at all, in fact."
--Dale Nardozzi, Team Xbox
|
"Simply put, Forza 2 delivers. Every car, track, and mode generates an unquestionably exciting experience at virtually every turn."
--Ouroboros, Gamepro

"Whatever you're looking for in a driving game, Forza Motorsport 2 will serve it up in spades. Microsoft's latest driving game sets the benchmark for next-gen realistic racing, blending an accessible difficulty level with realism that'll satisfy even the most picky car fans."
--Mike Smith, Yahoo Games
|
"If you¡¯re one of those gamers who obsessively tweak every aspect of a virtual car in the attempt to shave 1/1,000,000 of a second from your lap time, then Forza was created for you. This is a game for people who have a slightly unnatural fixation with car performance, people with stacks of Car & Driver magazine hidden in a drawer as if it were pornography"
--Chris Jensen, Game Almighty
|
"Forza Motorsport 2 is the best racing simulation ever made. The physics, customization options and online functionality are the best we¡¯ve ever seen. "
--Sascha Lichtenstein, Advanced Media Network
|
"The rather functional-at-best visuals aside, Forza 2 excels in a way no other racing game has managed this generation."
--Mark Podd, 360 Gamer Magazine UK
|
"The only personality you'll find in Forza 2 are the custom skins created by fans. While it's certainly an enjoyable and well-made game, it just doesn't have the spark of energy and excitement found in almost every other racer."
--Hilary Goldstein, IGN

|
"Forza 2 is the best sim racer out there right now, no question, and it continues to lead the way online. But aside from the cool online auction and community stuff, it's pretty much Forza 1 with updated graphics -- which is great, but I was hoping for a slightly larger step forward."
--Demian Linn, 1up
|
"A solid racer that still lacks the difference-maker that would bring it to the next level. If Forza¡¯s not careful, it will follow in Gran Turismo¡¯s tire tracks in a way it shouldn¡¯t."
--Matthew Kato, Game Informer
|
"Whereas most racers sport intense crashes and fast-paced action, this one's best features reside underneath the hood, where advanced physics work to make this the most realistic driving game on the planet. This reward comes at a price, however, since developer Turn 10 spent more time tweaking the rides at the expense of the presentation, which feels about as boring as a trip to the Department of Motor Vehicles."
--Chris Buffa, Game Daily
|
"Car lovers rejoice! The ultimate car passion simulator has been unleashed onto your Xbox 360. Take a love of cars that lies deep inside us all, mash it up with a need to collect and customize those cars to your heart's content, and throw in one of the most advanced and realistic driving engines ever conceived, and you get a small sampling of what Forza Motorsport 2 offers."
--Jake Reardon, Xbox Addict
