Gran Turismo 4 Prologue!!!

[Rezz]

Thats right guys, Gran Turismo 4 Prologue will be released in Japan in December!

It`s THE FIRST HALF of a TWO DISK compilation, spanning 500 cars, 50 courses and goodies that they don`t tell you about!!!

Damn it, this is going up on my site as soon as I can find a supplier!!!!

Peoples, you`ve got 1 and a half months to chip your Aussie spec PS2`s....

All those who want a copy please raise your hands!!!!!!

(Sorry mods - I thought nobody would see this in the Computer game section...)

[EnricoPalazzo]

Will it be all Jap. And yes give me!

[hippy]

[predator]

so is this is first part of GT4 and then the next one have extras on it?

Or is it a separate standalone game? like GT Concept was?

Hehe.. neo1 baby all the way..

Magic Chip 3 i think is the best.

[dAVE]

swap disc sucks... can i load DVDR on my Neo 2? my friend bought me some games from indo and i cant get them to work.. never had a prob on any of my cd'r....

i think i need a mod chip... but i have already spent way to much on that pos.

[streamer]

I don`t know how they`ve divvied up the two disks, but GT4 is going to stick it to the competition BIG TIME.

The other games in this category are:

XboX (Microc0ck) - Project Gotham Racing 2

sega - GT Online

Taito - Battle Gear 3

Genki - Chain Reaction

Namco - R:Racing Evolution

But these games are all single disk jobbies, although Chain Reaction looks good, ALL of them are going to be beaten down by the mighty 2-disk GT4...

A GT Force Pro steering wheel will be available at extra cost

Games in Japan usually go for 6,800 yen (A$90.50)

I can`t wait...

i saw some photo on newspaper, u can race in Hong Kong's street now!

[Maxx]

another one

[Maxx]

last one

[Rezz]

Thats sweet, but they still make the crowd look like they`re a bunch of carboard cut-out people...

[Kutter]

i think the biggest draw of the Genki games are the ability to race on actual streets....or at least capture that essence of street-racing...

Having said that, my biggest gripe with GT3 was the abolishment of the HP limit in each of the races....it upsets the balance of the game too much.......in the end you'll only be able to win using monster-hp cars......the NA/Lower end cars get obsolete too fast....

[Dreg01]

i totally agree with Kutter about the HP limits in GT3.

Rezz how much are the steering wheels + pedals over there?

[hippy]

will that steering wheel come with clutch too?? i hear this one will have a really good drift simulation ... if its as good as live for speed .. it will rock ...

I got my GT Force for 9,800 yen (A$130), and at the Tokyou Game Show, they predicted the GT Force PRO would cost about 20,000 (A$266).

They GT Force Pro has a proper gearstick... but it`s on the righthand side!!! WHY??? Why can`t they make it detachable so you can put it on the left?
