| The surprisingly mediocre graphics may not mean much to the player base this game is directed towards. I suppose if you’re busy looking for individual blades of grass on the side of the road then you’re missing the point of Forza 2. It appears a trade-off had to be made between a tug-of-war game of physics versus fashion, and in this case, physics won. It’s the right call. There’s no shortage of brilliant-looking racing games on the 360 with plenty more on the near horizon, but there is now only one that can claim to have near-perfect physics. And I’m not talking about physics in the usual sense, as Forza 2 moves the concept up several notches, going so far as to include tire adhesion. It’s a safe bet that the majority of the 360’s processing power has been taken over by the physics engine. |
