Enthusia Professional Racing (PlayStation 2, 2005)

Hello associates,
I’m no gamer but I do have lots of preteen, teen aged and young adult family members who visit from time to time. After they arrive and spend few minutes of chit chat with me, there off to the races to earn bragging rights from playing (EPR). I’ve owned (Play Station) from day one. I have it mostly for visitors. They all seem to like the Enthusia Pro Racing. Even the side liners enjoy watching the action while cheering for there favorite driver and cars. It’s enjoyable for me to witness how they all play the game with the same amount of vigor and enthusiasm regardless of age or gender. I personally think the people at Enthusia Professional Racing got it right. I know it’s an older game but you wouldn’t know that when my family members are visiting. We are very happy I purchased it.

First played this game on a demo desk, if not for that I would have never known about this game. There was no marketing done to promote this game. Game is a little dated now, but it's the best sim for ps2 hands down.

I always thought the Gran Turismo series was top dog until I played this game and realized the "defects" of Sony's flagship racing sim. I own up to GT4 and have played the prologe of GT5. The graphics are the only thing that improves with each GT title, even on the new ps3. "Funky" physics and horrible audio can be found on every new release.

Graphics are what you would expect from a ps2 title, the real attraction is the physics of car movement. Anyone who has driven a real car at it's limits will appreciate how accurate this game is.

Lack of car damage and no tuning are the only downside of this sim. Otherwise very solid. I will be watching for a Enthusia 2 or another sim title from Konami to play on the new consoles.

I know that this review is coming a long time after the release of Enthusia, but this game stuck out to me as such a great sim, I wanted others to know of it's quality.

the thing i really like about this game is how realistic konami pull it off.Enthusia professional racing is very good if you are in to racing Sims if your an arcade type gamer this one is not for you but its still worth the try.

This game is okay but it is not great. I guess that is because I am so used to Gran Turismo with the wide variety of cars, tracks, and brands. Enthusia simply to me is not as good as any Gran Turismo not GT1, GT2, GT3, GT4, or GT5. Also on Enthusia you can only use the joystick (I always prefer the D-pad).
