"GT3: The good, the bad and the missing"

OK, this is a bit of a spur of the moment post, so don’t expect it to be good.

The good:

• Absolutely fantabulistic graphics!
• Great handling
• Harder than before
• Not possible to buy a super-powerful car from the off
• More tracks
• 2001 cars
• Swish presentation
• Virtually no loading times
• Cool music
• Favorite music tracks playlist option
• Force feedback wheel available
• 6 players
• It’s Gran Turismo!
• It’s Gran Turismo!
• One more time: It’s Gran Turismo!

The bad:

• Can’t turn the music up
• New menu-like presentation isn’t as good as the last one
• Takes longer to navigate
• Not much of a sequel
• More bloody license tests!
• Not as many options

The missing:

• 300+ cars
• Second hand cars
• TVR Cerbera (allegedly). If I find that’s not there, someone will die.
• Polish
• The Corrs
• Damage (still, but I know why)
• High Speed Ring

Verdict: Very good, but shows signs of being rushed. Could have had a little more thought put into it.

Sort of but much harder and faster, brakes, sliding etc... is essential compelteting it is something i faild to do...

Is it like Extreme G?

Maybe Wave race or Excitebike

Ok Turbonutter get a 64 and i'll lend you F Zero X.

Heh, I like arguing because it's fun. That's all.

GT3 is realistic in a very fun way as it's actually hard to win a race and you need a damn sight more skill than with the majority of Nintendo racers. Maybe there isn't enough of the Nintendo target audience that can handle a proper racer such as GT, and that's why you only have arcade racers. To win a GT you have to get good. Going gung-ho and "What's a brake?" will get you nowhere, apart from maybe a gravel pit.

When I said he was more mature than US Ant, you were part of that US :-D

You proved me right with those last couple of posts :-)

Oops. Looks as though I didn't read Dan's message through properly.

But that doesn't mean I'm wrong.

:D

Do I care if the car gets damaged or not?? NO!!! {:)

And yes Dan_uk, us Sony fans are a little more mature than the childish likes of you.

:D

So what you're saying is, it's realistic in all the spoddy dull ways but ignors the part of realism that could offer a little bit of excitement.

I guess that says it all about Sony games...

As for "Beware the Toads"

You're one of those unbiased gamers who like a good game no matter the platform.

You're a bit more mature than the childish likes of us :-)

(And when I say US, no I'm not talking as in US as in Nintendo players, I'm talking about US as anyone who can be bothered to argue :-D)

Just out of interest is it possible to be a ninty ans a sony..umm..'y' at the same time? It's just that that's what I am.
