Hi all,
I recently was given Gran Turismo 4 Prologue & having the previous GTs in the series (1, 2, 3 A-Spec & Concept) I'm not at all disappointed. :D I am curious, however, is GT4 Prologue a preview of the GT4 main release (i.e., it's different but uses the same engine) or is it truly just a cut-down version (i.e., all the tracks are in the main release)?

The reason GT3 and concept are different is that GT3 Concept was designed around the Tokyo trade show and highlighted the concept cars from that (which is why the Concept name came about), but it was quite a while before the full game appeared in Japan.

Thanks, pb. I have the GT3 & Concept which are significantly different, so got curious about the relationship between GT4P & GT4 - may be if I explained this first it would have been clearer what I was after. :D Thanks again.

Should be the same lessons in both, with maybe less in Concept. I can't rememember exactly. Pretty sure you could use the save game between the two as well.

The same as in:
- the lessons of GT4P are duplicated in GT4?
- the same engineering is behind the game but the lessons are different?

It's the same but with less cars as the main release was delayed.
GT4 is a bit old now, over 2 years old in fact. GT5 was going through the same process, but it's been mucked about a bit and the released game GT:HD is not the same as GT5, but is more of a demo of what HD games can do.
