The latest issue of Official PS2 magazine has a PLAYABLE demo of GT3 on the coverdisc.

Don't just sit there - go and buy it!

Oh - my - God !!! Thats all I need to know before I place a pre-order down for a copy as soon as I get the chance!! It sounds almost too good to be a video game!!

Hey guys if this is kosher I reckon the March issue of OPSM2 is gonna be rare as rocking-horse sh*t!

There'll be loads of magazines on the shelves with the polythene bag ripped open and the disc removed.....

Another Gran Turismo game?? When will Sony learn. Yes it is a good game, with loads of cars, but do you ever use 2/3rds of them? No. The graphics on the PSX were shocking. This game just has better grpahics, and serves to reinforce the sequel reputation that Sony currently has.

graphics on the psx were....shocking? compared to what other racing game on the psx?

I'm not sure what you're getting at......

Sequel reliance can be a bad thing; but when it's a killer app like gt3 or mgs2......maybe that's acceptable....

Also, although 600+ cars in gt3 may seem excessive...first of all it allows for players to develop their enjoyment of the game in their own way....finding little gems amongst the dross, you might say....and, in fact, gt3 only has about 150 cars.....I don't think that's too many. where it falls down is when you have 30 different types of Nissan Skyline, for example. Being in the UK I really would welcome more second-hand european cars, not just japanese ones....

anyway....the demo (and the game) will be awesome....

You mean you didn't know? What planet have you been on for the last year? Obviously not one in this solar system!

Not the demo, the game!

I never knew a review of a demo could be better than a review for a game itself...

Let the Wookiee win...

Oh. He did.

Well done.

:D
