Well i picked up my reserved copy of GT4 today. It kicks so much ass. And there's so much stuff in it, i played for two hours straight and still can't figure it all out. But it lets you carry over credits from GT3 (only up to 100K in credits) and your a and b licenses. So i purchased an 03 honda ITR (DC5) and did all NA mods, which gave it 300 hp. And it has a photo mode, so i attached a screenshot for you guys. And for whoever says xbox graphics are way better than ps2, fuck you people. For what it is, ps2 is simply amazing. Hell, xbox should wipe my ass seeing it's a computer.

Got it too, used the 110k i started with thanks to my GT3 save to buy a '69 Camaro SS, dumped the rest into the engine heh. Ended up with a 500+ (forget teh exact number) horsepower beast with 753 pounds of torque that handled like shit heh (no money left over for suspension mods. Started over and got a '05 Mustang GT (i know i know), sittin at 505 hp and 566 torque and it handles awesomely O_o

I bought it today... I like it but its to bad I stoped playing Gt3 after I beat it how many years ago... to bad I sold it with my old ps2 also sold the mem with it... so I'm starting over... I have a sklyine 89 its not to shabby....:cool:

I reserved it for my brother and I guess he finally picked it up...says it's better than GT3 and not as boring, but insists that xbox version is "better."

Why is he complaining? It's not like he purchased it.. :|

Xbox version basically = Forza (or Forenza...forget the name...don't own an Xbox and couldn't care less).

Edit: I was in Wal-Mart earlier getting some food and decided to stop by their electronics section (there really aren't any game stores here) and they told me it'll be in on 3/3. WTF? I'm gonna be pissed if I have to wait over a week for it after everyone else gets it.

I'm gonna get up on xlink and play online that way once i build up my garage a bit more. It's a program that tricks your ps2 into thinking it's hooked up to another ps2 so you can play online heh.

Online play is going to come out not soon but is going to come out later this year, on another version of GT4 so if that’s what you want just wait. But I'll tell you the game is truly pretty bad ass! :yes:

True. Take a look at Forza Motorsports.

But GT4 is amazing itself. I bought mine yesterday, and I started with a WRX STi, tuned it up to 414HP (forgot torque). The cars in this game is way harder to control than in GT3.

yeah i restarted too. Seriously, that skyline i had couldn't turn over 40 mph, and my ITR could only run a 14.5 and that was after 100K invested. So now i got myself a nice "previously owned" NSX:yes:

If this isn't online capable, why is there a box in the options menu for "LAN settings"? Is that so you can link other PS2s to yours? Thought that was odd. As for the game being harder...I don't think so. Some of the cars are twitchy and require more driver input, but I'm breezing through this biatch. The only thing that's pissing me off are some of the license tests. Like the 10 minute run around the Numburing in a twitchy ass Mercedes at 150mph. You get an inch into the grass after 9 minutes of driving and you're fucked. Or if you brush against a wall. Horseshit. However, the 505hp '05 Mustang I started with is raping races left and right. This game owns you...online play or not.

This is the only place where I have heard anything negative about it. I haven't played it yet. I do own it. But I don't have time to play it due to school and shit. But as soon as I'm done some of these papers and some tests. I'll be playing it like crazy. I'll get some cool screen shots for you guys.

CD5Passion
02-27-2005, 01:37 PM
wanna know a secret?..its not 1080i

due to the fact the ps2 uses a red laser and the bluelaser dvd players wont be coming out till maybe this year or next true high definition cannot be reached until bluelaser discs are made. so NO dvds are in 1080i only highdefinition cable can be seen in true 1080i

now that I have rained on you parade you can burn down your closest circuitcity for teaching me this

03-02-2005, 07:05 AM
I've figured out a little trick.. Well Darin showed me half of it.. Goto the Special Condition races and win the first "rally".. It's really a race through the city against one car, but if you hit the walls too hard or hit the other car you get a 5 second penalty and can only go 31 mph. Now once you win the car from that race use that car to race the next race under the special condition races.. It's the same type of race.. Except when you win you get a Toyota RSC Rally car.. that sells for something like 265K.. It's a ridiculously easy race espically with the Cien

CD5Passion
03-02-2005, 08:05 AM
but that toyota RSC is a really well balanced rally car, that's what I've used on every rally so far

on the Nurbering tracks all you really have to do is maintain take the turns slow, but on the straightaways floor it. you take it fairly steady you'll be good, they give you realistic time goals on that course...but that S class test 15....took me way over an hour....reas being that you can't see most of the turns on the maps so i had no idea which way to turn most of the time

Yeah, but that was more money than I had at the time, and its still too fast at 920. All I know is I basically paid 14k for a 900hp car and now I dont have to buy any stupid viper to keep up in the higher american cups.
