or a candle ladsfj_________________________

I played it at the toronto auto show on sunday. Ford had a little set up where you could drive a GT40 around a track. I fell in love with it right there. I plan on getting a PS2 just for this game. Well and GTA as well.

the game is called Gran Turismo not Grand Turismo.

Reminds me of those gigantic Steel Battallion controllers that never sold.

Steel batallion controller was easily the best looking peripheril for a console id say.

How could you not be impressed by that? Pity the game was oOo: and the controller plus game cost like £120 or so.

I would use that thing for my TV dinners. It's cool looking, but it wasnt as much a hit as I think the developers wanted it to be. Plus, the HUD enveloped like 70% of your screen.

Yeah that was one of the big problems, a really small view of the action, i think it was more so the game wouldn't have to render as much and risk fps loss, some heavy duty particle effects and other crap going on in that game.

Makes sense...but so much for the 70inch. TV screen...

lol, bench doesn't mean coffee table.

Oh the worktop, well if he wants another guy to join in hes gonna be sitting on his lap. ed:

Maybe he needs a co-driver for the rally games, lol....."EASY LEFT, TO HAIRPIN - RIGHT."

I want to be that guy...he doentt really have to do shit but look at the map and tell him what kind of turn it is. Yet he still gets mad credit if they win.

Not much credit for the win though, not as much as the driver. I.e, we all know who Colin McCrae, Richard Burns and Carlos Sainz are - But for the life of me I can't remember who their co-drivers were, and I'm a reasonably big fan of WRC....

Although they must get mad bitches straight after the win....Hah.
"Yeah, It was me all the way...McCrae didn't know where the fuck he was going - Til' I switched on the magic and directed him. He owes me alot. Now pull out my penis and twirl on it you scum-sucking big-titty momma slutballs."

Do you have any idea how hard that must be to try and read his goddamn notes while he is bouncing up and down in that car? Hell, I can't read anything while I'm in the car, I get dizzy in like 2 minutes.

Also, having to track the movements of the car in order to know exactly where you are on the list of turns is a heavy load. One mistake and you're fucked.


Picking up my copy of gt4 tomorrow, in the mean time i've been playing gt3 nonstop, trying to get as much done as possible and messing around with old favourites. So far i've done every license test with a gold, and finished every race with a gold with a select few championships left to do; (fuck the vitz series) and a few endurance races I'll miss that game, my Mine's Evo on Deep Forest, Spoon Civic on Trial Mountain II, and my trusty Arta NSX on Laguna. rock:

Spoon Civic...ROFL gg

[quote="Infernal_":914be]lol the helmet is not nescesary[/quote:914be]that's what I said

they need more realism, that would be a great feature. at least the tires wear down a bit...
i only liked and played the first GT, they all seemed like the same thing, jsut with new maps and cars and added difficulty.

Basically...i'll probably pick this one up when its a greatest hit and goes down to 19.99

the cars and graphics do look amazing, that my friend sounds like a good idea. depending how good it sells within the first month, it should be there soon...

I'm sure it will sell out everywhere. Give it like 4 months to be in Greatest hits.

bought it this afternoon. the guy said they have 100 extra copies...but they had already sold a shit load. i'd skip school to play it but i got a test annoy:

looks shit as usual from sony. sleeping:

get over the hating corporation fad.

GOT IT TODAY, haha I traded in shitty Street Racing Syndicate and Tiger Woods 2004, and I got GT4 for half price, 30 bucks canadian cool: Game owns, I don't care what anyone says

[quote="TGB!":47751]GT: ONLINE will be a game released for the PS3. Hopefully it will be more than just hopping online and racing other people and ACTUALLY have records updated and what not.

Who gives a shit what the Screenshots look like - anyone who thinks Gran Turismo isnt IT as far as racing games are concerned needs to put their XBOX aside ::cough::gervais::cough:: and get with it. . .

As for damamge - seriously who cares. . .lol - honestly.

and anti - holy god we need to get whoever negotiated that return to step in with discussions with North Korea. . . ed: [/quote:47751]

rolleyes:

Funny because i spend most of my gaming time on the pc, xbox doesn't really get used besides when i want to play a dvd or something.

Who cares about damage? Since this is a driving sim id assume that seeing the damage would be a good addition to reading about it on a little gauge somewhere on the screen. Then again sony for the past 3 gt games apparently couldn't get the license to let the cars show damage, funny cause some of the same cars are in pgr3 and they show damage. More like the consoles not capable of it or it would take too much time to do.

Who gives a shit what the screens look like? apparently sony since they released enough of them in the render mode which as stated didn't show gameplay graphics. sleeping:

Enjoy your game though, i really couldn't give a fuck about racing games in general on any platform, mario kart being the exception since it offers more in the way of fun.

they put a mclaren f1 in. looks pretty cool, but im way...way...way to poor to buy one.

Just watched the gamespot video review, looks pretty good, though the guy bitched about the "racing model" being lacking, and seemed to like calling it gran tureeezmo. eek:

I will probably buy this game, just going to have to save my money after i waste it on FIFA Street rock:

I don't know...ti's odd that just because it is on PS2 dioens't mean it is shit.

Even I like some War FPS games...like fuck if I can like some of them...is it so hard to like the grestest racing sim series ever?

My local eb wont let me reserve it for the next bath that comes in cuss:

What? eek:

[quote="TGB!":0f438]All I will say is this (as far as "graphics" are concerned) -

DOOM 3 had great graphics. GTA: SA didnt.

Which one would YOU rather play. . .[/quote:0f438]

GTA: SA was more fun.... eek:

Doom 3, why? Because doom 3 isn't a game relying on whats popular in real life today and cramming it into a game unlike every gta game. FPS are also my preferred choice of game. Ive played every single gta game and got bored withing an hour, the missions feel like afterthoughts and most of the "fun" is derived from charging about the city in a car which in turn gets old pretty fast. Doom on the other hand was a retelling of the original, in gameplay terms it was basic but id never claimed it was gonna be this game that reinvented the genre.

Without the cursing, the "rap" bullshit and all the other little bits and pieces thats popular today gta: san andreas isn't that dissimilar from the previous 2 games. sleeping:

But as much as im a sucker for nice graphics its not all about that, if you'd care to toss another few games int the mix, say allied assault or call of duty id take those over doom 3. Far more back story and its something thats reflected in real life to an extent, and a TON more substance than the tired, cliched "ima bust a cap in yo ass" bullshit which is the staplemark of the gta series.

While you're playing through gta for the 50th time i can be doing any one of the following.

Doom 3 - PC
GTA:SA - Console

....It doesn't get released on PC til like july or something....No point in making comparisons...You generally get more options with any PC game over it's console equal.

...and about the "rap crap" and "imma bust a cap in yo ass," you might not like it - But it sells. Now that's what making games is about to gaming companies....That's what they have in mind when they make all games....Not: "how can we plz gerv...!?"
