Video Review
Full Review
While I could go on about the amazing visuals, the licensed vehicles and the clever career system of Real Racing 2 by Firemint, the thing that stands out the most is the online multiplayer. Pitching in to a race with 15 other players can be exhilarating and outside of the occasional disconnected player it's a frantic environment to test out your skills.
The controls for Real Racing 2 are highly customizable, with options varying between tilt and touch based steering; automatic and manual braking - along with adjustable thresholds; automatic and manual acceleration; and steering adjust controls. Flipping most of these to automatic will provide casual gamers with a simple to learn and play arcade experience, while flicking them off will give fans of sim-racers a challenging ride to master. The steering correction is noticeable, though not entirely intrusive as it attempts to compensate for players swerving back and forth trying to stay straight.
The career mode is where you will spend most of your time, at least initially, as you push up your fame rating and earn cash rewards to purchase new vehicles and upgrades to get those pivotal pole positions. Each career mode features several gameplay modes, from head to head competitions in pre-determined vehicles to full championship races and time trials. This in turn will unlock maps for online play and vehicles you currently own in your garage can be used for these massive races. Unfortunately player-matching can result in players being matched with someone using a vehicle in a completely different league to the majority, however it does a good job of attempting to provide a competitive field.
Much like the original the visuals are simply stunning and getting the opportunity to race some of the world's best vehicles (with reckless abandon) around these beautiful tracks is an opportunity not to be missed all on its own. Real Racing 2 is the perfect pocket companion for fans of racing titles and a definite must grab if only for the massive online gameplay.

Im pretty disapointed with this game, personally I think the first one is better.

why do you think the first one is better? it feels like the same kind of gameplay, only it looks better. I've got the assists turned off and drifting around corners is quite fun. in my opinion it's the best racing game available for the iPhone/ipod touch devices. it's a high price tag though, so I could see why it doesn't impress as much as when the first game came out.

This game is compatible with the iPod Touch 2g?, that looks very real

Well at itunes its says its compatible with all ipods and iphones. Also I'm pretty sure the reason the textures in this videos are so smooth is because of retina display of the iphone. You won't be having the same affect on the ipod touch.
