El Capitan said:I bought a 32" widescreen three weeks back which made me dust off my PS2 and GT3.
I also picked up Gran Turismo Concept for £5 yesterday.
Would you suggest GT4 is worth getting? I'm having plenty of fun with GT3, but if it's the same great gameplay with even better visuals, maybe my TV deserves it!
I saw the game for £20 (2nd hand....) yesterday. And I reckon I'd have to finally get an RGB scart lead, so maybe £30 in total..... Can't decide whether to get it - maybe I will when I get bored of GT3.
Man - what a rambling post.....

yeah i've golded all licenses (that is a bitch and a half on some of the tests) and i've done all but the three 24hour races and the rest of the mission mode things. i'm at 88% or somewhere in there the game has been a huge part of my life for a long while now. and i'm waiting tol i get another PS2 to get back at where i left off.hanafudaX said:Nice. Have you golded all the licenses too?
I am at around 38.6% completion. Haven't touched endurance hall yet, but may do the Fuji one first as the prize car is sweet.
just stick with racing medium. this race isn't as crucial on the tires. but equip nitrous for that long straight stretch to pass everyone super fast.hanafudaX said:I think I'm going to take the day off work on Friday and have a good GT4 session during the day. I'm looking at doing the Fuji 1000km endurance race, which is about 228 laps.
Just had a quick run to check the competition, and it looks like I'll be running the Sauber C9 as it is the fastest thing I have. Any tips on tyre strategy? I have all racing tyres for the C9 available to me. I realise you can change tyre selection during pit stops but seen as you have already done it...

R1 kicks it in hold it down to let it keep boosting.hanafudaX said:That reminds me actually: I have yet to buy nitro for any of my cars as I am keeping them all base spec at present. How do you use the nitro, or does it kick in automatically?
Been out. It's called Tourist Trophy.Xian Xi said:Gran Turismo lost all its difficulty after #2. Well at least now the makers of GT are now making a Gran Turismo for Motorcycles. That should be interesting and I might pick it up. I am getting bored of Moto Racer and I never like Moto GP.

Kim _Kaphwan said:man i hate hong kong. too many super sharp turns and not enough time to build up a ton of speed and you always end up hitting other cars as it's so narrow. one of my most hated tracks. it pisses me off more than any other.
and dude, those cars make huge huge performance jumps by just tuning the suspension and lightning them. i can see why you'd keep em stock, but that's just so unorthodox to me. then again even my real cars in real life have all been modded.
Sure, I'm up for some lap time challenges.hanafudaX said:Well, I did the Hong Kong race yet again, and won by a comfortable margin this time. Not surprising after doing about 100 laps of the circuit in that car
This time I was very keen to save the data before doing anything else. Nice milestone, as I have now 'golded' the Pro Hall.
Tomorrow it is 228 laps of Fuji
Anyone interested in getting some lap time challenges going?

How about best lap at Circuit De La Sarthe I?
Doesn't matter which car, I think you should be able to use any car. I want to see what the best car can be for the Sarthe I.hanafudaX said:Cool.
Yeah, that sounds good. Which car/setup/tyres?
Here is another to start the ball rolling.
Circuit: Hong Kong (normal)
Car: Sauber C9 (unmodded)
Tyres: Front - R4, Rear R3
Time: 1:09:x (need to double check the exact time, but it is a 1:09)

I'll be using an Audi R8 (just got it today). And as for tires, standard ones on whichever racing car you use would be fine.
