Ford Mustang Racing (Playstation 2) Reviews
I am a Mustang Enthusiast. So, accordingly, I HAD to buy this game. It's great to see this many beautiful cars in one game. However, as far as game-play is concerned, it could use some work. If you want the perfect car racing game, I suggest something from the Gran Turismo universe. However, if you just want to look at a bunch of Mustangs, and grow bored quickly, this game's for you! Seller was top-notch though. I'd buy from them again.

I wrote a review for this worthless game, but it was not published, it is so bad, I took it to Gamespot and sold it for 2 dollars, the 2nd day after I got it.

I guess I should start off this review by saying I am a Ford Mustang aficionado. I own a '95 GT Convertible and will not rest until I have a fully restored, supercharged '65. I don't know what it is about Mustangs (I love all American muscle, actually), they're just awesome for some reason.
So, the other day, I am in my local media store, when I come across the game for a very low price. I remembered when I got Ford Racing 2 for a very low price as well, and it was okay, but just, eh. (I wrote a review for it, read that for more details) So I figured, well, it's got lots of 'stangs, and I can race 'em... could be fun. Bought it and went home.
I was surprised. This was/is better than expected! Lots of sweet, sexy Mustangs, great, colorful detailed cities/racing tracks (my personal favorite is Miami), and the graphics are very colorful. I also like how you can choose between an automatic tranny or a manual (stick). My real-life Mustang is a manual so you can guess which one I usually go for (it makes racing a little easier). From a base '65 coupe to the '05 GT, many awesome ponies are represented in this game.
So why do I take off half a point? Well, picture this familiar racing-game scenario: you're far in the lead, you think you got it beat, suddenly, out of nowhere, your opponents magically overtake you. Frustrating, right? Well, this game has that faux pas too. However, I also discovered you can overtake them, as well. (Just call me the comeback kid!) That's a small gripe, however.
Overall, if you like Mustangs, check this game out. Since Midnight Club 3 has no Fords (sadly), this can be your Mustang racing fix.
