I've seen GT4


Recommended Posts

I went to the Sydney Motorshow on the weekend and guess what, they had GT4 on dislay on 2 huge screens in the Mitsubishi exhibit. Basicly they had 2 rally car chasis hooked up to the PS2 console, and they were hosting a link up battle (it was an absolutely amazing setup). The rules were that the person who wins the race gets to stay in the game and play someone else, untill they get beaten.

They were playing on this rally track (in rally mode of course, and using Mitsubushi cars). It started in a city and went into a forest then back to the city again.

I would have had a go myself but the line was really long and I couldnt be bothered waiting in line.

I'm so temped to get a PS2 just to have that game (but I'll get over it of course!).

I would have taken pictures to show you all but unfortunatley I left my camera at home (i was really annoyed about that too, because there was so much I would love to have a picture on).

When is GT4 due?

I have seen dates of mid-October in EB Games. It might be delayed until the spring, though. Unlike previous versions, this one is gonna be released simultanesouly in Japan and the U.S.

i also think it will be spring time when its released also, the guy who 'make' it or whatever, i forgot what his title is will NOT release the game intill he is 500% satisfied with it. and yes. GT4 is a good enough reason to buy a PS2. :D

you guys hype this game and the ps2 as if it were a god... ps2 pretty much sucks.. ok i'll bite that gt3 was cool and all, although it didn't seem very real, but come on... even on a 32" TV, i felt like i was going to through up after awhile playing on my friends system... watching all the jaggied non anti-aliased graphics... made me sick... Xbox (and no I'm not a xbox "fanboy") but i own an xbox, and the graphics are at least 2 times better... they aren't perfect either... but only if gta3 was ported to xbox, then it would really become the game it should be... but on the ps2... sorry but the ps2 graphics engine can't produce acceptable results for me to justify buying one... not to mention that bizzare controller layout....

just my 1/50th of a dollar

You obviously havent played the PGR2 demo. The car models and textures are far superior - GT4 has aswfull "picture-block" backgrounds (in other words, the stuff you see in the distance is just a static, blurry image rather than an actual polygon model like in PGR2). GT4 is full of jaggies, pretty poor particle effects.... all the screenshots seen so far have been pre-rendered, FSAA-doped up bullsh!t. It's all to get the PS2 fanboys happy, get them to hype it up and think PS2 cant be beat.

Seroiusly - I'm no fanboy, but PGR2 wipes the floor with GT4 in terms of graphics. Gameplay on the other hand they're totally different and it's all based on personal taste. If you like "arcadey realism" with an emphasis on style, PGR2 is for you. If you'd rather tweak the hell out of your cars and earn cash to buy better parts, then of course GT4 is the better choice.

But nobody can honestly believe that GT4 looks better than PGR2. The hardware it's done on for a start is far slower than what PGR2 is playing on - in other words, less detail in the textures, less memory for particle/special effects, a lot less polygons for the cars (although they get to use more than they usually would because they dont actually have real backgrounds/environments apart from only the closest roads and buildings). It's just a technological impossibility that GT4 could ever look better than PGR2, to be quite honest.

You're just mad cause you dont own one. You, like every other fanboy, has no idea what fantastic games are already out on Xbox. You just blank it out, any time you see a game, you ignore it unless it doesnt have an Xbox logo on it. It's as if you're afraid to do the research to see what other systems offer. If you'd care to take a look at any release list, you'll see that this month and next month are full to the brim with AAA titles for Xbox. Not to mention the huge amount of Live games.

Get off your fanboy horse and get an open mind - there's more to life than having your "manhood" up Sonys/Nintendo's backside. One day you're gonna have to step up to the fact that competition is a good thing.

yes there are good games for xbox but there are more for PS2

if you dont agree with me then you're obviously the fanboy you just described.

anyways, im looking forward to GT4. a lot! i also agree that project gotham has nicer graphics but it looks to perfect for me, like a computer generated movie.

Wow - you are so right. How foolish of me to not know how a console that has been out for at least 2 years before Xbox HAS MORE GAMES! SHOCK HORROR :rolleyes:

Gran Turismo WAS a great car racing game. Unfortunately great graphics just can't cut it this time around. You guys should get Need for Speed Underground. Now where great car games are at these days. No no, I'm not saying GT4 will be awful. I'm sure that it's a fantastic simulator with great graphics and all, but the era is OVER! Try NFS Underground. It's out on PS2 and XBOX I think.
