Trading standards, lawyers of the world are no doubt rubbing their hands with glee at the “revelation” that, actually, Test Drive isn’t “unlimited” at all. However, when there are this many challenges to complete, so many novel side missions, vehicles, things to buy, items to find, some 3000km of roads to explore and presumably hours of downloadable extras yet to come, you can forgive a certain amount of artistic licence.
Richard writes: "The series may have a cult following, but ten years on Test Drive Unlimited 2 still upsets me. It was one of my most anticipated games ever, with a concept years ahead of what Forza Horizon could achieve. But it remains one of the buggiest launches of a game I can remember, completely tarnishing my memory of it."

Such an underrated game, the only problem I had with it was the car physics on anything more powerful the a Golf GTI. But to me this was the original Forza Horizon
Game Informer - It's hard to imagine what to do in a car game except race other cars, and yet with Test Drive Unlimited 2, developer Eden Games found a way to expand the genre's horizons enough to offer an experience that's slightly different from your average racer. Eden's ambition came with a cost, but Test Drive Unlimited 2 is a game that I remember fondly and appreciate for the chances it takes.
This game gets a bad rap, but I enjoy it still. The idea was great, I think that if the devs were just better supported it could have been something truly epic.
Would love to see something like this again, especially on a next gen console.
Dear gameinformer,
look up the fucking definition of cult classic,
sincerely,
anyone who knows what "cult" or "classic" means.
I loved the first one and can't wait to get in on this one.
Glad to see that the second game is back in force, should be picking it up soon if finances allow.
Really? I wonder how this holds up against Hot Pursuit. I'm not a racing game, but god damn, Hot Pursuit was incredible.
ive played it and its handling is horrible.
not in same league as hot pursuit 2.
infact crash time racing felt better
i'm puzled this seems like what NFS:hp should have been if they continued adding things to their world. in fact they need to let me try the handling to see if i'm going to play this game or not
