Project Gotham Racing 2

Notice that on all tracks there are skid marks (darker tarmac) before turns and fast bends. When you approach the darker tarmac, hit the brakes and make a concentrated, cleaner turn. This will ensure a faster time and less mistakes.

Like a particular color on your wheels? When you are on Xbox Live either host or join a game. Then select the car you want to change the color of (example, Porsche 911 GT1 white).

Then select a car from another class and in the color you want (example, Golf R32 blue). Hit the red button (B) until you get to the screen that says Single Player, go into Kudos Challenge and go to the area where your first car is (the Porsche 911 GT1 white in the example) and hit the green button (A) until you get to the screen with the little picture of the car on the top right of the screen.

Now go back into your created game of join a game on xbox live and your car will the be color you chose. (the example Porsche 911 GT1 white will now be blue).

When playing cone challenges, remember that it is all about the Kudos. If you look at the top ten ghosts of the Cone Challenge, you will see that people do not complete them fairly. They blatantly cheat by doing many, donuts, slides, and cone gates to accumulate the points. Even though this is not completely fair, it is also not that easy.

You can hear your own Xbox ripped music while driving. You must have music already copied to your hard drive. Go to the Options menu and go to PGR 2 Custom Soundtrack, Press L or R to scroll through soundtracks. Pick a song and then add it.

Play in multi-player mode. Choose the Washington D.C. Capitol Thrill track. Use two Ford GTs and put each of them at the end of the straight away, including the slight turn. Start at the same time and ram each other at full throttle. One of the cars should go flying and the other should stay on the ground, but on their front two wheels. The car will sink into the ground and appear with the sky surrounding you. The controller will vibrate the entire time. Pause the game and go to "Quit". When asked to confirm your choice, part of the screen that is under your car will go black and reveal that you are on a building.

While choosing a car in PGR2 hit right to select "garage". Once you are in the garage hit Y and look around for an area that has shelves with tires and rims around it. Go to that area and look for an arcade machine. When you get close to it hit A as if you were selecting a car. It will then go into an "old school" type of arcade game called geometry wars.

The Controls:

Left analog stick: steer in direction you point
Right analog stick: shoot in direction you point
L or R: Use bomb

This neat little mini-game can be accessed by going into the Garage. While you're in walk mode, go over to the arcade machine and press A.

There seems to be a loop hole to get great combo bonuses. Unlike the original Project Gotham Racing, this game allows
you to go through the cone gates twice. You can go through either forwards or backwards, and hence build up your combo bonuses.

Use the handbrake when going around a turn.

To get music in Geometry Wars simply do the following:

1: Get into Geometry Wars. (Go into the garage, walk up to the arcade machine and press the ''A'' button)

2: Press the ''B'' button once.

3: Now here comes the tricky part as it requires a little timing. Press the ''A'' button again so you are back into the garage. Now, wait about half a second then get back into Geometry Wars.

The music from the stereo should now be playing in the background.
