    If you liked the first game, then you're probably going to love this. I only played the demo of the first, but the driving / drifting feels the same, but better.

    Oh man, I love the game so much.

    The difficulty is pretty good - it changes in accordance with how many races you win or lose - and I found this to work great. Though it did start a bit easy, so don't worry if videos don't show a high enough difficulty - within three races the game had adjusted noticeably and within 6 it was no longer easy, but spot on for me.

    And the upgrades! Oh man, the upgrades - they all have a definite effect, though they are a bit cheap. But there is so much content, so many cars to unlock, upgrades, cosmetic upgrades, etc. this game is just fantastic. Worth every penny.

    Really? You cant support a good game and the developers behind it for less than a meal at most fast food restaurants ?

    It's worth that IMO. If this game was on any other console you'd probably be paying more like 15 - 20$ for it.

    (I'm not forcing you to buy it or anything, but come on, complaining about 5$ for a great game that has quite abit of content? Really?)

    I think 5 dollars is under 3 quid, that's about the price of a sandwich.......but yeh, your right; far too much for a brand new game :/

    I would have to kill you if I tell you.
    CA! Sunny and awesome!
    Yeah!

    Wow! This looks great! Way better than the first. The first was great and all but was way to lite on content. This looks like many many hours of fun.

    but is it, really? All games i have run fine on last years ipod touch 4 (that i have) and if i have any problems there aren't unique to me or my device, they're universal.

    Downloading now, 6 minutes to go.... I think this will be one of the best racers released this year IMO.

    Hell Yes!, just played two races, and this is easily one of the best racers out. Very slick production, The visuals are amazing, the audio is spot on, there is a heap of content, and it feels just right...the handling is tighter than reckless 1. A fantastic game, if you're into any kind of racing this is a must buy!

    Will probably buy it sooner or later because racers belong to my favorite genres. BUT: There are sooo many "best" top down view racers in the meantime out for iOS… :rolleyes: (It all started with SlotZ Racer afair.)

    And still no successor versions of Asphalt 6 and Real Racing 2!!! :( Those "3D first/third person view" racers are the best in my honest opinion. Why no news of those?! BTW RR2 is the abbreviation for Real Racing 2 normally. Please don't mix them up.

    Are there "In-App Purchases" inside Reckless Racing 2? Does it have local multiplayer (which we—some friends all equipped with iPads—love MUCH more than online multiplayer—THAT'S a TRUE social gaming feeling believe me) via Bluetooth? Thanks in advance for enlightenment.

    Reckless Racing 1 didn't have any IAPs as far as I remember; "seller" was the well-known Electronic Arts Inc. Reckless Racing (TM) © 2010 Pixelbite AB., now it's Polarbit AB © Pixelbite AB 2012. Without EA.

    The price of Reckless Racing 1/HD changed frequently and in a high range. And there was/is a Lite version.

    I don't want to spoil the fun but all of this is pretty standard in ALL high quality racers since three or four years or so. Something new would be kind of a "smart automatic car upgrade" system because I personally prefer to drive, drift & race all the time and would like to delegate the other things to engineers, managers, designers etc. (in short: all the rpg-like stuff) or to—a computer.

    Can't play this, but all the hype got me to download the first Reckless Racing again. Have to say the sequel looks sweet.

    So Polarbit is publishing now and not EA? Hopefully, that means they'll stick to their guns with pricing. Know a lot of people weren't happy when the first one dropped to $.99 literally after like 2 weeks.

    Please tell me I can still hang the arse out on the car, the rather loose handling was the best thing about RR1.

    I think it's Polarbit and Pixelbite (minus EA) co-developing/publishing RR2. There was no EA around when Reckless Getaway came out and there doesn't seem to be any EA now.

    They're both developers, but Polarbit has a publishing division as well.

    Does this game backup to any servers like games like Gun Bros, Tiny Tower and DragonVale?

    ie if I get a new iPhone will I be able to restore my progress or have to start again.

    People are still griping about how sales on the appstore work? :confused:

    If you're that worried, wait a week or two and see if it changes, I mean valentines day/ presidents day are both coming up in Feb., which means perfect opportunities for appstore sales. Devs make more money dropping prices on days where tons of customers are sitting at home on their couch browsing the appstore in their underwear than they do on an average wednesday evening.

    Looks ridiculous btw, I'm pretty sure I'll be buying this tonight as I loved the first one.


    As long as you do a complete backup in iTunes on your old iPhone before you restore your new one you'll get all your saves, settings, ect. installed on your new iPhone. When you go to setup in iTunes, choose restore from backup and choose which one you want iTunes to install on the new iPhone.
