After I put the game in the console but follow shortly after the disillusionment. Unfortunately, the game does not run at a constant frame rate, but is very common to a halt, even in races in which there is little going on. The resulting "Ruckelorgien" spoil the fun completely. One has the impression that EA has the PS2 port implemented sloppy and put more emphasis on the versions for other consoles. Better it would have been the PS2 version canceling all with such a lousy performance variables, so you could avoid disappointment ahead.
For the PS2 version, unfortunately, not a recommendation.
