I am sorry but I have had it up to here (er-yes points to the sky) with people praising this game!
I like it yes, well done Sony. Its a good game, but it has major flaws and should be called GT2.2! If Sony were to release this game on the Playstation people would be in uproar, only the graphics save it from being any different to its predescessor and the fact it has 450 less cars to choose from.
Come to think of it, it more of a show off from Sony to display the Playstation 2's graphic and visual abilities.
'Oh look at the amazing sunglare effect' the man in the shop said to a customer.
'Oh well lets not play the game and look at the sun, shall we? Doffus!' I muttered.
Its not that special come to think of it. It is a great racer, but it has the same nice cars GT2 had (but less), its still got the same great control, and a great game length, infact it even has some of the same courses.
One whole year ago a game called Metropolis Street Racer was released onto a console which is no longer being made, it had practically the same or better visuals, a better progression system and overall was a better game. Yet it was completely overlooked by most and was left to only selling moderately well!
Don't get me wrong, I love the way Sony have gotten away with it, and yes its a great game, but its not worth buying a console for (a £300 console), it still has the same dodgy damage system and the oppenents still feel so computerised (so much for the chip), oh, and when the wheel does work its nice and easy..
Sony are claiming that GT3 is the fastest ever selling game, I claim it to be the fastest selling ever upgrade!
Seriously, visuals have taken over! Gone is good gameplay. Thank God for the GB Advance!
'I spit in Sony's eye and it fizz!'
er-yes

It's just a shame that most people don't at least give it this sort of chance before slating it. This also, of course, applies to other consoles.
Without meaning to sound patronising, well done Mr Freak - at least you were willing to give it a chance.

Not sure exactly what the fault is, but it's not the GT3 wheel as far as I know - it's another (I think).

this no key, blow up the door idea. sounds really cool, its gets so annoying in some games like resi evil, PD whatever...when u dont have the key for the door.
how good is this red faction? me is gettin a PS2 next week with two games. GT3 being one of those games, would RED faction be worthy of my hard earned cash?
