=== Game Rundown ===
'''''Doritos Crash Course 2''''' is an Xbox Live Arcade Game (XBLA), released for the Xbox 360 on May 8th, 2013. The game is a successor to the massively popular XBLA game ''Doritos Crash Course''. It's a game that expanded upon the ideas of the first game and implemented many more. A big part of this game was the online requirement. Everything the user did was through this games servers, whether it was playing a course; alone or with others, tracking personal best times, or even just changing your settings. Because of this, when the servers shut down on October 15th, 2014, just over a year after the games initial release, the game would be deemed unplayable as a connection to the servers is required to even get past the first loading screen.
