"GT3"

Like most PS2 owners I cant'wait until next month when Gran Turismo 3 is released. Its sure to be one of the best games released this year. But one thing i think this game misses like the 2 before it is damage to the cars. You can drive in to corners at 100mph and the worst that happens is you slow down a little. I think if an option for damage was in this game it would be better. It would punish the driver for bad driving, make the game that little bit more realistic. Would anyone else like to see this feature in the game?

most people want to see damage.
but the car companies wont allow there cars to be destroyed as its bad advertising.

there was an interview in a ps2 magazine i read and it said that the inventer of gt series hopes to include damage in gt4, when car companies finally give in. It says in the future you may be able to crash in to ditches and even catch fire. The day this happens i will be in heaven. So hurry up with gt4!

Yeah but how do you reckon they are gona simulate how a very very expensive car handles with 2 flats,smoking engine the exhaust drags on the ground. I don't think they can afford to try it in real life and copy in the game and besides the game is supposed to simuate how these cars handle on the road not in the ditch.

Putting Damage in would be good but it's just to hard to see how these expensive cars handle when their complelty naffed up.The only real way to find out is with them real crash test dummies hehe.

Good Rally games have damage and I think Gran Turismo doesn't need it and is a great game without it.

The cars all look so nice, why would you want to destroy them??

I meant maybee have the option like in F1 2001 where you can turn it off or on. So that you get punished for hard crashes, so ramming your car into a wall causes your car to become a wreck and you can no longer compete in the race. I admit the game will still be great without it. Cant wait, any idea when the official release date is yet??

Is it out July 1st or 22nd?

I played the OPSM2 demo again last night, its still excellent...

but i hope they sort out the tyre noises when you slide round corners, theyre a bit cheesy and the same for each car.

July 20th is the release day at the current time.

Oh right thanks for the news. I thought it was meant to be the first? It'll be worth the wait of course.
