If you like Rally and Off Road racing, this deep game has excellent graphics, tunning before any race, and a good variety of climates, events and tracks in America and Europe.

Awesome game!

One of my favorite rally games out there, the wrecks are outstanding, plus being able to race other cars on the track makes it nice as well (crashing is fun XD)

Tiny framerate issues anyone??

I resently got this game because I was looking for a good rally game for the xbox, and damn it is. Before purchasing this game i read alot of reviews about this game and all of them specified that the game had a rock solid framerate, but In some instances of the game while playing against 3 opponents In ice racing (any track) the framerate slows quite a bit but only when you are close and in front of your opponents.Why din't anyone notice this?? From all the reviews i've read none have reported this small issue, or maybe my xbox is getting old or something...

But beside that this game Is worth buying.

The best Rally game out there...

I had to write a review entirely because the spotlight review was written by someone who hadn't 'got' this game or taken the time to explore the settings.

Actually, I see reviews all the time claim this game is an 'arcade' rally game, indicating that perhaps the game lacks depth, maybe has unrealistic physics, or even simple fake graphics.

All of these points are wrong. Completely false. The cars handle extremely realistically, and most folks who play this agree this is the BEST looking racer available. Better than Forza? Not sure, but better than PGR2 by a hundred - double the frame rate for start. You see, not least of which is the 60fps you get with a HD TV, but add to that the amazing reflections, muddy splashes, infinite distance view (with a tiny amount of inconsequential pop-up trees) and you have a showcase game. I've had more than one PS2 owner go out and buy an XBOX for this game after playing it in my house - testament indeed to the incredible realism this Rally racer offers.

Previously, the 'easy left' that you co-pi states was mentioned as a fault... When your rally co-pilot claims 'Easy left' or 'hard right' then you have the game on arcade setting.

A simple click in the settings would result in '3 left opens to 4' or '1 right, opens to 3. Bump onto straight through tunnel. Hairpin right' offering a much more useful, accurate indication of the upcoming road conditions.

Ultimately - this game is stunning. Worth every penny of the budget price it's currently at - if you're hesitant due to lax reviews, don't be. I've put in hundreds of hours on this amazing game and it's a real as the Xbox can get.

Superb!

I'm not a big gamer. I've had my XBOX for over a year and it's mostly collected dust. I love driving simulation games and I think rally is the most fun of the various forms of driving so I picked up RalliSport Challenge 2 based on a day and a half long online search for a good rally game. All of the reviews said that RSC2 had the best combination of realism, fun and graphics.

They were right! The phisics model is incredible and the damage is very realistic. When you start an event, your car is shiny and new - but when you get to the end, you may be missing a few body parts, have a few broken windows and you're coverd in dust, mud, etc. Now THAT's RALLY!

Above all though is the scenery! The graphics are so good that one of my favorite things to do is to just watch the replay of the latest run!

Make you own music video! -
The folks who made this game really added a cool feature with the replay options - you have full controll over the playback speed and camera selection. Because you can load your own music to the XBOX hard drive, when the replay starts you hear your favorite music playing along with the game sounds and video of your last run. As you control the playback, you can adjust the replay speed from ultra fast to super slow motion with the trigger levers - basically making a live music video out of the replay footage! Very sweet!

Australian dirt, Swedish snow, British leaves, French cobblestone streets...
Get This Game!

Amazing game!

The detail and realism in Rallisport Challenge 2 is amazing.
From rain and mud on your windshield to the wheelspin and suspension on each racecar, no detail is left to chance.
Numerous race courses, race formats, and realistic tuning options mean you will never run out of fun.

Hands down, this is the best racing game I have seen on Xbox.

RallySport1 better than RallySport2

The driving and scenes are more realistic on RalliSport2, but it's not as much fun as RalliSport1. RalliSport1 gives you better courses and better cars to begin with. It also seems like RalliSport2 takes a long time to download...more so than RalliSport1.

I think this game is awesome not only graphic-wise(which they are awesome), but your profile name also becomes your xbox name, and I think that is awesome!!!

Less Rally, Somewhat Sporting, More Challenge

I remember when the first Rallisport game came out, and everyone was calling it the second coming of Sega Rally. Well, that game was no Sega Rally (the two greatest rally games ever were Sega Rally for Saturn and Sega Rally 2 for Dreamcast). It was pretty good though. The sequel looks to improve it yet more...

The graphics, physics, and controls for this game are excellent. The cars are cool, and the environmental effects are cool. There are a variety of races, pretty good computer A.I., and lots of things to unlock.

The thing that keeps this series from becoming classic is the same thing that keeps many racers from becoming classic: track design. The tracks are simply by and large not worth visiting over and over again. While the tracks of Gran Turismo were on the whole quite a bit above average, and the tracks of the Sega Rally games were totally brilliant (increasing replay value a thousand-fold), Microsoft's rally racers simply haven't got it. Not yet any way. I'd give it at least a rent though if I were you. The multi-player and arcadey controls and damage model may be enough to keep some people coming back for more.

Great game
