Gameplay
Top Gear 2 game is similar to OutRun and numerous other psuedo-3D racers of the day. The player races other cars across 64 courses (loosely based on real-world tracks, albeit in different locations) spread across 16 countries. There is only one type of car in the game and its make and model is fictional.
By default, "type 1" controls sees break,
accelerate and
use one of your limited nitro boosters. If driving a manual car,
and
change gears. Type 2, 3 and 4 control schemes swap these buttons around.
