Dan Greenawalt: "In Forza Motorsport 2, we are improving and expanding Drivatar Technology to give even more personality and realism to the opponent AI.

The AI you face in Forza Motorsport 2 will have names and personalities that were specifically trained/created by the designers. Some will be fast, but tentative in traffic. Others will take slower lines, but will be more aggressive toward other cars. By giving them names, the players will be able to recognize the fast and the dangerous drivers from the field.

Our primary goal is to leverage the incredible potential of Drivatar Technology to simulate realistic tension and rivalries in the Single Player modes. Our secondary goal is to use Drivatar Technology to better prepare and train the players to succeed online."
