Why a game from 2006?

GTR2 was/is one of those rare occasions when a game developer is given the opportunity to produce a game as it was meant to be. All the features you see in one game or another but never all in one game these days was actually included in one game: GTR2. And it's still being updated by modders to this day!

Here's some links that may give you a better understanding of why a game from 2006 still holds its own:
