Hi. I didn't know if I should have posted this on the Sony forum or here. So i did it here because there are more people likely to answer.

Well anyway, here is my review of GT3.

GT3! Anyone who hasn't heard of the GT series by now has got to be dead or something. It has taken over the world. And now the next edition is here. GT3 has arrived.

Now the first improvement on the second in the series is that now there is only one CD instead of 2 so if your friend comes in when you are doing a GT mode and he wants to play you in an arcade you can easily just quit the championship mode and go into the arcade. because in the old one you would have to switch the game off and put in the arcade mode cd, and this saves a lot of time for loading and stuff.

Now on to the actual game. In arcade mode you can race with many cars and on many courses. Now there are less cars in this version than in the last one but don't let that put you off. What the game doesn't have in vehicles and courses it makes up for in graphics. They are absoloutely stunning. Some people don't think that these kind of graphics could be done on a PS2. But they are.

Championship or GT mode is where all the action really is. First of all you have to buy a car ( best from the japanese garage as it is the cheapest ) and then try and get a license and then compete in races. There are many courses of many types in the game. Some are just normal speedways and some are rally courses.
If you win races then you get money to buy better equipment to win better races and so on. That is what this is all about. To win all the secret cars in the game you truly have to be an expert at the game but it is worth becoming an expert just to see the last few secret cars. They look amazingly good and handle brilliantly.

The game also has a multiplayer. Not many games don't these days and this is no exception. The multiplayer is just the same as the one in GT2. And i mean the same. The only way you could tell the difference is because of GT3's superior graphics difference.

You must buy this game. It is just too good. Well worth the money.

Buy the game. Full Stop.

Thanks 4 reading, Afro
