I think a good demo with great handling cars could see the sales of Shift 2 rocket!

I haven't even gone online yet, still trying to complete as much of single player as I can to build a good garage. One problem I know of on PS3 is we are experiencing a lot of freezes and maybe people don't stay online cause they're sick of getting kicked off? Is this a problem on the 360 as well? I can't play more than a hour or two before I freeze.

Same on 360 although maybe not as frequent as you say....I'd say a freeze every 3-4 hours.

It's because PS3 people prefer to play GT5
There are plenty of interesting cars in GT5. Shift 2 has only few cars and only several are really interesting.
And physics in GT5 is much better than stupid mimic in Shift 2.
P.S.: I play both GT5 and Shift 2, but I don't like online
Are you kidding? I wouldn't call 100 different Skylines and 50 Miatas interesting. Or how about that Dihaitsu Midget Type II? That thing just burns the track up, huh? GT5 is a decent game but every car in Shift 2 is a performance car and is capable of being tuned into a full-on race car. And while the physics in GT5 are clearly more realistic than S2, realism doesn't always equal fun.

i'm sorry that you have only skylines, miatas and midgets in your garage.
I have many other cars. Many historic and exotic cars.
Cars in Shift 2 are just boring. I would call them as "many skylines and miatas"

Puh lease... race cars are NOT boring. And for those which are "normal" a works convert should do the trick.
Yes GT5 has many cars worthwhile... unfortunately the time needed to get the money to buy them...
Anyway, I'm not on-line because I still don't know the tracks well enough to even be competitive.
Give people some more time

That and a lot of people probably aren't online because they are just completing offline races and time trials to beat Autolog times. I find having the Autolog competitivness I don't need to race online to get my fix, and don't have to worry about the idiots wrecking everyone all the time.

My PS3 died and took my Shift 2 w/ it 
so I have to reload it and start all over again so It will be another month probibly before I can devote enough time to get comfortable w/ Shift 2 again. Great game but now I have GT5, NASCAR, and Shift 2. So many games - so little time... lol

I didn't say I had 100 skylines and 50 miatas in my garage, I was talking about how the vaunted 1000+ car count that was such a big deal when it came out is made up of 20% cloned cars that all look and handle the same.

I have mostly been playing shift 2 offline and gt5 online, evertime i go online to play shift everyone wants to freaking play bumper cars hope to find some people on here that really want to race clean i understang accidents but its rediculous on shift 2
Before I shelved my copy of Shift-2 (waiting for the patch).., I didn't really mess around with the online either. I have about 50 or so friends.., and I think maybe 2 or 3 at the most seem to have Shift-2 (PS-3).
However.., I don't know if it has been mentioned yet.., but I found that a lot of the freeze ups (appear) to be as a result of the AutoLog feature. One day just to test it.., I disabled my WiFi before loading up Shift-2. From that point on (until the say I shelved it)., I didn't experience one single lock up while playing "off-line".

^^What does post count have to do with being a troll?
It certainly seems a strange set up not showing rooms if the race has started. What I like about GT5's set up is being able to see every lobby that's been set up. I tend to only join the lobbies that are already racing. That way I can be sure they're not just doing free runs with no intention of starting.
