5/5 despite it's faults it's still an excellent racer.
gotta hand it to one of the letters
GT3 will propably get lots of stick for being like GT2 when nintendo update the same 10 year old game and everyone kisses it's bottom.
If anyone here sent that in PRAVO !!

I never use it as an insult. As far as I'm concerned 'Ninty' is just a much quicker and easier way of typing 'Nintendo owner'.
To me, both N64ever and Meka Dragon are both 'Ninty's'. However, I think you'll agree that there's a world of difference between them... Meka only *pretends* to be a half-wit. I think. ;-p
The image is one of maturity and not stepping down to the level of some of the prats in the Nintendo forum. We use mature language and well-thought out arguments.
I think everyone will agree that our forum is of a higher quality than the Nintendo one.
Just because its such a hugely obvious change doesn`t mean its a lot harder or better. The changes in the GTs are less obvious, but more impressive when you see what they are.
Or would you like GT3 to be in 4 dimensions? Are we dealing in time here, or merely 4 dimensional shapes represented on a 2-D plane?

Just curious, what image are you trying to project?
And I don't call Nintendo fans Nintys to put them down in any way. Nintendo fans call Sony fans Sonyphiles, and that was made up BY a Sony fan and isn't meant as a put-down.
Or do you mean Pandamonium which looked 3D but hard 2D gameplay.
They were great but Mario 64 was the first one to allow you to walk and explore freely.
Do things you're own way without a pre-set path.
It WAS original and it WAS the first of it's kind.
Mario 64 wan't original, it was just obvious. 3D platformers had been done before. Shigsy was given a brand new piece of kit specifically designed for 3D games. He's seen the quality on the PSone, what else was he going to do?
Secondly, the fat sow is a she, not a he.
And thirdly, I was expecting Digi to slate GT3 for being dull and unoriginal. It clearly impressed them (and Digitiser are VERY hard to please) so I suppose it's just the genre I don't like.
And none of you listened properly to Kingkliks point.
Yes, there were a few differences between GT2 and GT3 but the wasn't a very clear change between them.
The difference between each Mario sequel is huge though.
5 years after Super Mario World, a 2D a-B adventure comes a brand new, first of it's kind, ORIGINAL 3D platformer which barely resembles it's prequel.
Apart from slightly smoother graphics, you have to really dig deep to find a difference between GT2 and GT3.
That doesn't mean that GT3 isn't good.
It just means that letter was made by a dimwit.
Do you see?
You're right, he doesn't really represent the image we are trying to project, but he's an OK poster nonetheless.
