If it's as good as the original I'll buy it just to play online, loved the original played it to off line completion.

I wouldn't say the beta was any worse than the original. It annoyed me that the beta was only available for a few hours a week. I liked being able to walk around the cars in the garages but I'm not sure the casino really added much to it. If I wanted to play poker, I play a poker game, not TDU2.

I really enjoyed TDU but it did get to a point eventually where I couldn't play it for more than 10 minutes without getting bored.

I'd need to upgrade my PC to play TDU2 properly so that will probably be the deciding factor.

yeah i got it,

its ok tbh its more of a "GAME" and "social game" then GT5 being a proper Hardcore racing game

Graphics dont touch GT5 but good game once they sort the Servers out!

I liked the first one but never completed it.

Was looking forward to the second one, but was very weary of buying before
trying, as I was hoping it would be more towards a sim rather than an arcade racer.

Looks like it's not only not more of a sim where the driving physics are concerned
but it's even more like arcade physics going off what people who have got it are saying.

Yeah, I've not read very good reviews of this. A shame.

Im loving TDU2. Loved the 1st one.

Just some good honest driving fun! (Hopefully will get better when they fix all the bugs).

Anyone have it on 360?

Should start up a scoobie club....

had it a few days now and pretty much stopped playing it, very disapointing. Looks great, pysics are screwed, turn for more than a second and the car spins out, fwd cars overstearing like rwd cars.

not arcade physics and not sim either, very poor to say the least

Yeah the handling leaves a bit to be desired at times but then again if you flicked a Golf GTi into a 90 deg bend at 80-90mph, im sure youd lose the back end !

I think the perception of speed is a bit off in the game. you sometimes feel although your only doing 35mph when turn in but infact your doing about 80-90mph!

The single player missions become quite repetitive and boring after a while but this game has the niche of the open world driving which i think saves it for most.
