GT4 Discussion.

[Thourun]

In order to avoid the multiple OT threads like there were for NFSU2 I think we should keep our Gran Tourismo 4 discusion in here since there are probably people who could care less about it and this way we won't clog up the board. If any of you mods think its not a good idea to have another OT thread (be it sticky or not) then go ahead do what you gotta do and I'll just go to the gaming section... But I bet others won't and will start lots of threads on it in here. I like discusing things with people I know so I'd much rather have the discussion in our nook of AF.

I just got the game and I allready have a question lol. Has anyone figured out how to switch to 3rd person view? I prefer being able to see the realitive position and orientation of the car, makes it easier to judge things for me. Also, how do you get a 3000GT? I was suprised not to see it in the classic cars section since I think everyone here would agree its the best car Mitsubishi ever made. Does the used car dealer sell it or is it a prize car or what? I know its in here somwhere!

I don't have it yet, but I do have a question. Are the graphics as good as everyone says? And is it a must-buy?

[Thourun]

The movie graphics are top notch, the cars look perfect, like they are in the showroom. It is a bit expensive but its my favorite game and its been a must buy series for me since playing GT2. I wish I could get it going in 3rd person view since all I do is spin out in my 300Ztt since I'm not used to playing in first person... it sucks lol.

[PoorLuder]

It should be the same as the other GT's. It's been awhile since I played but I think it was triangle for GT3....? Your instruction booklet should have the info on one of the first pages. According to Gamefaqs.com, the GTO is definitely in the game. It seems to be available after a certain period of time. Hope this helps.

I know with the steering wheel you can change view there is a button mapping option in the game, just check it out.

Another thing I noticed with the steering wheel is that you can look left and right.

[Thourun]

How much are those anyways?

[Dreamspawn]

Press select to change view i just got the 97 3KGT VR4. HEHEH wanting to get ahold of a 99. I love the game so far, i like how the pysics are alot more life like.

[Thourun]

Lol thats the one thing I don't think I tried, be playing it after independence day lol.

[Gateway]

yes you push select to switch views

I bought it yesterday, along with a PS2 as well. It's the reason why I was waiting to buy a PS2. I absolutely love the game and can't wait to master it

[Thourun]

Did you get the tiny playstation? They're incredibly small! My brother got one for xmass since I stole his lol. I can't wait to ditch the 300ZX I have and get a VR4, then the escudo... that thing is sooo fun.

[Dreamspawn]

right now i have the vr4,Bmw V12 LMP, Amuse Carbon R skyline, R34m spec Nur, camaro iroc 88 concept, charger 440 rt and getting ready to get ALOT MORE. Does nebody know the limit on number of cars u can own in this one.?

[Thourun]

Lol I've been selling everything, buy they've been all crappy cars so far. I just got a feel for the game though so more cars to come. I love the alps, its just like actually riving them lol, cept not as many hair pin turns as in most of the alpine "highways." I love how you can set up your playlist with only songs you like, and how in turbo cars they shoot little flames when going off boost lol.

[Dreamspawn]

WOOT i just ran a 10.433 in my 835hp VR4 wonder what would happen if i took my Mclaren F1 out hehe. By the way thourun u looked at the GTpics forum over in the games section? i plan on putting up some of my pics up soon.

[Thourun]
