Now it has come down in price to 20 notes do you think it is worth getting? i did like the game when it came out and i rented it but is it really still worth buying now?
Do you still play on it?
Has it still caught your imagination?

The best way to get your hands on this one (and believe me, it's worth it. 1000bhp + through an 800kg chassis? I like the sound of that!), is to do the Tuscan challenge in a fully tweaked TVR Tuscan Speed 6. Make sure you win all the races, so that you are at least 10pts ahead of your nearest rival going into the final race. Save the game, and then start the final race, and quit out immediately. You will still have enough points to win the championship. If you win a pesky griffith, just reload the save and try again! One of the 4 prize cars is a dark grey Cerbera Speed 12. You'll win it eventually!

I`m a big fan of all the vipers. The Viper Concept is the car I usually stick with as its easier to balance than the standard. The Team Oreca one is nice, certainly a fine looking car, but you just can`t fiddle with it as much as the others, so it loses out a little there.

Obviously the polyphony racing cars are the best for speed and handling together, but they are a little too easy to drive which makes it less fun. Its much more enjoyable to pick something with equivalent horse power, but a lot less stability round corners.

Something else that is brilliant for really irritating friends is mini tuning. The car itself is... terrible. However, with a lot of tuning and fiddling, it`ll keep up with untuned mitsubishi lancers. Its still best to avoid courses with long straights, but on the more twisty tracks it just sticks like glue.

One car that still eludes me (well, there`re six actually) is the TVR speed 12. I`m trying the polyphony digital cup again now as I believe it can be won there, but before that I`d been trying the Tuscan Challenge, but with no success. I must have won it 6 times or more, and I always ended up with the Griffith 500.

I`ve just remembered another favourite of mine, the Zondas. I`m not a great fan of the race car, but the C12 and S can be nicely tuned, and they certainly look stunning.

Anyway, enough ramble. Its a great game, thats about it.

Pah!

It has to be the Mitsubishi Evo VI. Not as fast, but quality handling.

If you want a skyline, you really need to win the Nismo 400R. About the only Skyline that'll stay on the black stuff round corners.
