With a few improvements over the first game and the lack of online play, this title might not have what it takes to go head-to-head with better Xbox racing games like Forza or Project Gotham Racing but it's a nice alternative to the more serious racing game.
-
World Racing 2 is not a horrible game, and there are actually some nice features here, but it's still not worth the $20 price tag.
-
The racing just isn't innovative or special enough to compliment the car lineup, and the Career mode is just too bare bones.
-
Official Xbox MagazineSynetic's World Racing 2 presents a compelling argument why middle-of-the-road arcade racers shouldn't reproduce. [Nov. 2006, p.81]
-
With many other much better racers available World Racing 2 should stay in the garage.
-
Synetic has a basic grounding in good car physics and better-than-average artificial intelligence, which gives World Racing 2 an underlying level of quality. Unfortunately, its poor presentation, rough course design and horrific car designs add to the game's poor sense of balance and fairness.
-
Don't let the Live Enabled packaging fool you - there's no online racing, only a few limp content downloads and local four-player split-screen.
