INTRODUCTION
Finishing fi rst isn’t hard. Anyone can fl oor it and cross the fi nish line. What
Project Gotham Racing
®
2 is all about is fi nishing fi 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 Kudos
Rank. In Single Player mode, race in either
Kudos World Series
or
Arcade
Racing
to increase your Kudos Rank. To increase your Xbox
Live Kudos Rank,
race against others on the Xbox
Live™ service.

There are also modes in which your Kudos Rank isn’t increased. Race an Xbox
Live
Ghost Challenge
to improve your Xbox
Live Scoreboard position (but not
your Xbox
Live Kudos Rank). In
Time Attack
and
Instant Action
, your goal is
simply speed (there are no Ks for style, and thus you won’t increase your Rank).
