I've been playing a lot more Forza 2 lately and have had an epiphany

I hated how one of the most realistic racing sims just kept giving away cars everytime you won a race. I ended up with 12 cars within an hour.

It felt so unsastisfiing to win cars, which was the total opposite in GT, winning a car or getting enough money to buy something in a new category was thrilling. Forza's prize system just ruined it for me....

So I gave my copy to my brother within a week and never played again.

 

GT4 has exactly the same system. Ya win a series get a car. Forza 2 has eliminated part of the problem by making the cars you win worthless if you sell them back to the computer.  At least Forza 2 lets you RACE and Upgrade the cars you won (I'm looking at you Diamler Motor Carrage & Jay Lenno Tank Car).

Forza 2's only weekness for me, is endurance races are too damn short.  The longest endurance race is less than half the legnth of the shortest GT endurance race.  Even some of the series races are longer.

i think even GT lets you upgrade the cars you win
