May 29, 2007 - Excellent - 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.
June 8, 2007 - Excellent - Expertly put together and able to cater for both those that want a quick and simple race and those that want a true to life racing experience, Forza 2 is unquestionably one hell of an achievement.
July 24, 2007 - Excellent - I can't remember another game that created as much of a sort of side cottage industry as this, and with Forza 2's newfound ability to trade and sell customized cars over Xbox Live, it's clear the developers have realized what a hit this feature is. It's just the cherry on top of an amazingly delicious ice cream sundae of a game.
May 29, 2007 - Excellent - It's a testament to the original Forza's design that this sequel can feel both so much like the original and yet so much better at the same time. If you've got even an inkling of a theory that you might like driving games, you need to play Forza 2.

June 1, 2007 - Excellent - FM2 is a finely crafted, fun, and extremely detailed racing game that will reward those who stick with it. It really can teach you to appreciate the nuances of racing and may even renew your love of cars.
June 1, 2007 - Excellent - Forza 2 is real world driving honed to perfection, and easily the best racing experience on the Xbox 360.
June 7, 2007 - Excellent - If you're a car enthusiast waiting for the first true next-generation simulation, go out and buy Forza Motorsport 2 immediately. Even more casual players should at least give it a rent as it's truly a game that can be appreciated by both parties.
June 7, 2007 - Excellent - With a sublime racing model, superb AI, tons of content, brilliantly simple car upgrades and tuning, an unbelievable paint shop tool and all the online options you can imagine, Forza 2 is the premier Xbox 360 racer and the new king of the genre.
May 30, 2007 - Good - Forza 2, despite its ho-hum presentation provides enthusiasts with enough content to last them the entire year.
May 29, 2007 - Good - Cars are supposed to be sexy, but they aren't sexy in Forza 2. Sure, they are accurately recreated and have spot-on physics, but Forza 2 is the Ed Asner of racers. It's talented, but you wouldn't want to take it to bed.
