Laguna Seca Reverse. And Cote D'Azure. Both solid and really annoying, in my opinion.
No?
Thought not.

I think if the AI is improved, and some sort of damage system is included, then that's all that really needs improving over the last game. And there's absolutely no reson why Sony/Polyphony can't do this, as they have had plenty of time to improve AI and most other racers seem to manage this no problem.
As for damage, I reckon "the manufacturers don't like their cars getting damaged" is just an excuse. For one thing, it a game for goodness sake, no-ones gonna take it that seriously. If you take a car, any car, and smack it into a brick wall, it's gonna get damaged. Just because they're indestructable in a game, doesn't mean they're gonna be indestructable in real life. (DUH!)
Besides, PGR2 has damage in it, and it uses almost exactly the same manufacturers anyway.
I reckon it's just a mix of laziness, and an attempt to cut development costs. And why would they bother putting damage in anyway when everyone seems to think GT4 will be the best racer ever and will buy it regardless?
