Now that you have had time to explore and practice, and have built the "Killer" 4X4, hook up to the network (Internet connection required) and compete head to head with other 4 wheelers from all over the world! Get good enough and maybe you can make it into one of TR's Racing Teams.

This is a great racing game that you may find in your local bargain bin. If you see it, it?s worth buying. This game is the one that made me upgraded my joystick to the MS Force Feedback and I am glad I did! Especially since MS quit making them!

Het moge duidelijk zijn: 4x4 Evo 2 is gewoon een vette game, die zowel de fans van dit genre als diegenen die niet eens weten wat 4x4 is, heel wat raceplezier zal bezorgen. Klasse!

One of the simplest joys of racing games is that they let you get away with things you can't do in real life. Assuming you're not a race car driver or the latest guest star on World's Scariest Police Chases, driving mainly means dutifully obeying signs and driving within the lines. If you'd like more adventure than just merging onto a busy highway or dodging stray shopping carts at the grocery store, 4x4 EVO 2 may be what you're looking for. Here's a racing game that not only ignores speed limits, but often also ignores roads. Like its predecessor, 4x4 Evolution, 4x4 EVO 2 puts you behind the wheel of real-world trucks and SUVs and lets you barrel over dirt roads and across the open countryside. Deviating from the racecourses isn't just possible, but actively encouraged. If you can put up with some frustrating inconsistencies and technical problems, 4x4 EVO 2 offers some thrilling off-road racing.

In a nutshell, Evo 4x4 2 can be a satisfying experience, and the added features may increase the replay value, but the game still has some rather annoying gameplay problems, which shouldn't be there in the sequel.

Een leuke 4x4 Offroad Racer met een hoop opties die de fans zeker zullen bekoren. De kleine minpuntjes moet je d'r wel bijnemen!

Viele Strecken, viele Autos, viele Extras: Das geschickte Motivations-Tuning von 4x4 Evo 2 fesselt erstaunlich lang ans Jeep-Lenkrad. Leider stören einige echte Spielspaß-Schlammpfützen das Driftvergnügen. Die miserable Kollisionsabfrage nervt genauso wie die langweiligen Geländemissionen. Als willkommene und gut spielbare Abwechslung zum Asphalt-Einerlei pflüge ich aber immer wieder gern durch den Modder.

On a déjà vu plus trépidant que des courses de 4x4. Evo 2 n'échappe pas à la règle. Malgré une réalisation correcte, ce simulateur s'avère très vite soporifique. Le mode Mission Libre était pourtant un bon point de départ.

Une fois encore un jeu peu convaincant bien que son principe soit plutôt sympathique. La réalisation de 4x4 Evo 2 et hasardeuse et inégale, son gameplay souvent douteux pour finalement agacer le joueur très rapidement.

4x4 Evo 2 ist eines der wenigen Offroad-Spiele, das mehr als nur Rennen bietet. Gut versteckt in einem atemberaubend unübersichtlichen Menü wartet ein Karrieremodus auf seine Entdeckung, der alles hat, was ein Rennfahrer so braucht: Mit einem geringen Startkapital ausgestattet, kauft sich der Spieler einen Wagen und versucht, sein Glück zu machen.

This series is beginning to look less like a unique PC off-road racer and more like a console-port knockoff with each incarnation. At this rate, can power-ups and lava pits be far behind?

4X4 Evolution 2 is a bad egg from the start. What could, and should have been a good game turned out to be more trouble than it was worth. It focuses too much on things that aren't important, and not enough on the crucial matters. Wherever it was that the developers went wrong, they took a turn for the utter worst and never quite got back on track.
