Sweet - maybe I can catch up on some posts while you're playing...

Haha, probably. Although with the number of posts we're having this year, it only takes me a few minutes to reply to new threads, so I can take a break for that. ;)

Are you getting it for PS2 or PC? If PC then you better post some screenshots!

It's only for PS2 to the best of my knowledge. ;)

What imrovements did they make over 3?

Too big of a list. More cars, WAY better graphics, better physics, etc, etc, etc. If you liked 3, you'll LOVE 4.

I liked 3 but I was too crappy at it. I spin out on every other turn, can't stay up with the ghost car on the tutorials...fun game but I haven't the knack.

Gran Turismo 4 has a photo mode where you can take you car to places and tracks around the world and then take photos of it, just like you would with a real camera. You can control everything - exposure, aperture, etc, etc, etc.

You can then save to a USB thumb drive, or a USB compact flash card reader in my case, and transfer to your computer.

So here we go! :)

Can you at least network it with another PS2?
Viper007Bond
02-26-2005, 08:32 PM
Yeah, there's LAN play and via tunneling, you can play over the Internet. You use your computer to send the LAN signal over the net to someone else's computer & PS2.

They're gonna make the online play a seperate game and I will be buying that as well most likely. :D

I can't believe that you took those from a game.

i'm into the need for speed games, this one sounds pretty similar, maybe it's time to break down and get ps2....

All of the new Need For Speed titles are arcade style games. This is a sim. WAY more realisitc. :cool:

Buy a PS2 just for this game though? Too much $ if you ask me. However, if you've been thinking of getting one to play some other games on it as well, I say go for it! A slim PS2 is now $150 brand new.

The price has come way down on those things (older model).

Saw someone else do a panorama on a forum and then someone else even move the car around, so I copied their ideas.

Nintendo DS and it sucks. It's just a Gameboy Advance with a touchpad.

The Sony PSP is WAY better. It'll be $300 when it comes out and it's a portable Playstation 2. Heck, they're gonna release Gran Turismo 4 for it. :cool:

Dude you're not up to date...
I (as a talented gamer), know the facts.

A DS will have a adapter to watch movies and music, plus... eh plus...

It looks cool? :p

No, not really. If I wanna play on my TV, I'll use my PS2.
