SAFETY INFORMATION
About Photosensitive Seizures

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain
visual images, including  ashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even
people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition
that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games.

These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered
vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion,
or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or
convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.

Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms.
Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—children and
teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures.

The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by sitting farther from the
television screen, using a smaller television screen, playing in a well-lit room, and not
playing when you are drowsy or fatigued.

If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor
before playing.

Other Important Health and Safety Information The Xbox Instruction Manual

contains important health and safety information that you should read and understand
before using this software.

Avoid Damage to Your Television

Do not use with certain televisions. Some televisions, especially front- or rear-

projection types, can be damaged if any video games, including Xbox games, are
played on them. Static images presented during the normal course of gameplay may
“burn in” to the screen, causing a permanent shadow of the static image to appear
at all times, even when video games are not being played. Similar damage may occur
from static images created when placing a video game on hold or pause. Consult your
television owner’s manual to determine if video games can be played safely on your set.
If you are unable to  nd this information in the owner’s manual, contact your television
dealer or the manufacturer to determine if video games can be played safely on your set.

INTRODUCTION

YOUR GOAL

RANKING UP

INTRODUCTION

Finishing  rst isn’t hard. Anyone can  oor it and cross the  nish line. What

Project Gotham Racing® 2

is all about is  nishing  rst—with fearless style. Work
the handbrake to pull off a 360˚, slide through the curves, take the perfect
line...and still come in ahead of the pack. The braver you are, the greater your
reward. That’s what earns you glory in

PGR™ 2

.

YOUR GOAL

The goal of

PGR 2

is to be the best driver in the world. And to prove you’re
the best, you need the highest Kudos Rank—the ultimate measure of your driving
ability. You increase your Kudos Rank by earning Kudos (see pg. 4).

You have two separate ranks: Single Player Kudos Rank and Xbox

Live

Rank. In Single Player mode, race in either Kudos World Series or Arcade
Racing to increase your Kudos Rank. To increase your Xbox

WHAT ARE KUDOS?

WHAT ARE KUDOS?

Kudos measure the style, speed, and daring you use when racing. Sure, you
want to beat your friend around the track. But if you really want to get under his
skin—and earn plenty of Kudos in the process—you’ll pass him, get two wheels
off the ground, slide around a corner, and then nish with no damage.

Earn Kudos to increase your Kudos Rank. Increase your Kudos Rank to earn
Kudos Tokens. Exchange Kudos tokens to unlock new cars. Simple, right?

How do you earn Kudos?

When you perform a stylish maneuver during a race, a certain number of Kudos is
added to your Kudos Stash. After about two seconds, the Stash moves into your
Kudos Bank. However, if you can do another maneuver before your Stash moves
to your Bank, you earn a Combo Bonus. The more moves you can string together
before your Stash moves to your Bank, the more Kudos you earn for your
Combo Bonus.

Note that if you collide with an object before your Stash moves to your Bank,
you will lose any Combo Bonus you may have. If you don’t have a Combo
Bonus, you’ll lose your Stash. Remember, the more you gamble with linking
moves, the more reward you could reap...but just one mistake will cost you.
How brave are you?

What do you do with Kudos?

When you earn a certain number of Kudos, your Kudos Rank increases. Your
Kudos Rank is your badge of honor—it’s how you prove your worth to all the
other racers out there.

Each time your Rank increases, you earn Kudos Tokens. You can exchange your
Tokens to unlock new cars (or save the Tokens for later). You receive Tokens for
increasing both types of Kudos Ranks, and you can use those Tokens to unlock
cars no matter where you earned them.

Single-Player Kudos

The Kudos you earn when racing in Kudos World Series or Arcade Racing are
divided into two categories: Style Kudos and Completion Bonus Kudos. As the
name suggests, you earn Completion Bonus Kudos when you nish a race (the
higher the difculty, the bigger the bonus). Style Kudos are earned during an
event and are not based on how
pg. 6 for details on earning Style Kudos.)

Xbox

As in single-player racing, you earn both Style Kudos and Completion Bonus
Kudos when racing via Xbox
as in single-player racing (see pg. 6). However, Completion Bonus Kudos work
a little differently in Xbox
car you drive, and whether the other players have higher Xbox

Live

Kudos

How do you maximize your Xbox

Obviously, racing with style and coming in rst are going to earn you Kudos. But
if you really want to rack up Ks, you should race against more opponents, race
against cars that are better than yours, race against players with higher Xbox
Kudos Ranks, and nish with a faster time than your opponents.

KUDOS WORLD SERIES

KUDOS WORLD SERIES

Kudos World Series is the main single-player mode in
of 14 Car Series—one for each car class. (See pg. 22 for info on car classes.)
Each Car Series is made up of individual Kudos Events. Complete the unlocked
events to open more events in the same car class. Complete all the events in a
single Car Series to unlock the next Car Series.

Overtake Try to pass enough cars while earning Kudos
Timed Run Race against a total race time while earning Kudos
Speed Camera Drive past the speed camera at top speed without

crashing while earning Kudos

One on One Race wheel to wheel against a single opponent

while earning Kudos

Difculty Levels

There are ve different levels in Kudos World Series: Novice, Easy, Medium,
Hard, and Expert. For each event you successfully complete, you earn a medal
matching the difculty level of the race (e.g. Expert Level = Platinum medal). If
a particular event is too tough at a certain difculty, drop down a level to nish
it off. After nishing an event, you may race it again at a different difculty level
(perhaps with a better car) to earn more Kudos.
Kudos performance for each event counts towards your Kudos total.

The higher the difculty level, the more Race Completion Bonus Kudos you’ll
earn. And since you need to earn Kudos to get Kudos Tokens, racing on the
higher difculty levels obviously puts you on the fast track to unlocking new cars.

In each Car Series, you are allowed to race only with the specied class of
car. You’ll need to unlock the best cars in a class in order to win at the highest
difculty levels, but remember—unlocked cars won’t follow you when you
progress to the next car series. Exchange your Tokens wisely.

THE CAR STEREO

THE CAR STEREO

When ying down the streets of Barcelona in your Enzo Ferrari, you’re going to
want to listen to some good tunes. Fortunately, you have three radio stations per
city, a total of 33 real DJs (each with his or her own playlist), and more than
240 songs—plus the ability to create your own soundtracks.

In-Game Stereo

When racing, click R to view the car stereo. From here, you can move R left
or right to change the radio station, move it up or down to adjust the volume, or
click and hold it again to enter CD mode.

When you’re in CD mode, you can move R left or right to change tracks (but
you won’t hear any local DJs).

After you’ve made your radio and CD adjustments, click R again to hide
your stereo.

Soundtracks

When racing, you always have your choice of three default radio stations that
you can change on the y. However, if you want more control over the music
you hear, you can go to the in-game Radio/CD Options menu and select a
soundtrack you’ve created.

You have two choices of soundtracks: ones you’ve created from the Xbox
Dashboard or your own

Warranty

Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”) warrants to you, the original purchaser of the Game, that this
Game will perform substantially as described in the accompanying manual for a period of 90 days from
the date of rst purchase. If you discover a problem with the Game covered by this warranty within
the 90-day period, your retailer will repair or replace the Game at its option, free of charge, according
to the process identied below. This limited warranty: (a) does not apply if the Game is used in a
business or for a commercial purpose; and (b) is void if any difculties with the Game are related to
accident, abuse, virus or misapplication.

Returns within 90-day period

Warranty claims should be made to your retailer. Return the Game to your retailer along with a copy
of the original sales receipt and an explanation of the difculty you are experiencing with the Game. At
its option, the retailer will either repair or replace the Game. Any replacement Game will be warranted
for the remainder of the original warranty period or 30 days from receipt, whichever is longer. If for any
reason the Game cannot be repaired or replaced, you will be entitled to receive your direct (but no
other) damages incurred in reasonable reliance but only up to the amount of the price you paid for the

period described above. TO THE FULL EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, NEITHER MICROSOFT,
ITS RETAILERS OR SUPPLIERS ARE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE,
INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE POSSESSION,
USE OR MALFUNCTION OF THIS GAME. THE FOREGOING APPLIES EVEN IF ANY
REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. Some states/jurisdictions do not allow limitations
as to how long an implied warranty lasts and/or exclusions or limitations of incidental or consequential
damages so the above limitations and/or exclusions of liability may not apply to you. This limited
warranty gives you specic rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state/jurisdiction to
