I wake up of a weekday morning, and ride my bike to work. I take the racing lines, go round the slower cars, and try and beat my time.
I get to work and during fag breaks I chat about GT3 with a friend here. What races we did last night, what cars we used for which races, Moan about how slow the Yaris and swap info on car setup. I read posts on here about GT3, peoples percentages through the game, complaints, steering wheel bugs and so on.
I worked through my lunch yesterday so I could leave an hour early to make it to the post office. I diddn't make it in time, so without a thought the PS2 was on and GT3 (allready in the machine) loads. I race some more, complete another championship, unlock another car.
My latest game is doing the GT Super Speedway track over and over to raise funds for the next car I need to complete another championship. If I win the lottery I am definately getting a Ford Mustang! People who I have spoken to about it say that I am addicted, and that they would'nt have bothered.
It gets turned off when my girlfriend arrives home from work. People phone up, and we chat games, mostly GT3. Cars, tracks, times, it goes on. When I am in the bath I read my PS2 mags, and I always read the GT3 tips on the licences even though I am not at that point in the game yet.
Since Buying GT3 I have another 3 games, including Resident Evil which I have played for about 10 minutes. I really want to play it, but GT3 goes into the machine without a thought. I have GTA3 coming soon, and much as I am really looking forward to this, the Beginners Gran Turismo season is begging me to whip it (I completed arcade mode on all the levels before starting on GT mode, before you say I'm rubbish!) and worry that it might get shelved like Resident Evil did.
My only real hope is SSX Tricky. I had a similar addiction to SSX when it was released, and played it constantly to beat high scores, complete all the trick books and find new secret passages, but until then, it seems nothing can prise me away from GT3.
Thanks, Polyphony, Thanks a bunch!

I did not enjoy the rally ones, partly because i wasted 1,000,000 on a Pikes Peaks. They are nothing like the ones from GT 2.
I still have not finished the rally section.

I am similarly addicted - still.
I`m currently trying to get all licences up to gold standard, and also the last few remaining cars.
I have 16 gold, 16 silver and 16 bronze at the mo`, and intend to get them all up to gold eventually - though some of those S-licence tests are a little tough.
Interestingly I have at least 1 gold on each set of licences - except for the rally licence. I just can`t do it. Most of them are silver, but none are gold. I`m rubbish at rally`s it would seem.

I love games too and I do play them quite a lot but there are also more important things sometimes that I need to take care of. I havnt used my PS2 that much since I only played GT3 and F1 2001 on there. I use my PSone to play my copied games and thats what I tend to do most of the time. I do play CHampionship Manager and other games on my PC.
School is very important to me and I finish all my work before I start playing my computer. Thats how it would be like in year 11. But now I am in 6th form i am more lazy than ever so I play computer a lot

when i had my amiga i could never stop playing it i was that addicted got alot of detentions if i remember correctly due to that. but with the playstation i haven't had any addictions except for about 2 those being FF7 and triple play baseball 2000. those games i'll keep playing and completing but everything else has been completed once or not at all
I wish I was still as passionate about games. Don't get me wrong I love games, they make up an important part of my life, but I'm not addicted, I could go without.
I've got GT3 and I love it, its superb and all, but even though it offers a great challenge for me (its my first venture into the racing genre outside of Mario Kart) It just doesn't inspire me to beat that challenge like games used to.
The Final Fantasy games and Zelda OoT are games that have got me really excited and then hopelessly addicted in recent times. But then FF9 didn't grip me and Zelda MM sits still unfinished.
THPS2 is still probably my most played game.
Where did my childlike addiction go? :-(
I want it back!
(Ah well, THPS3 and Metal Gear 2 will no doubt reinvoke it)
