Gran Turismo 4: First Impressions

[jamez]

Out of interest, how many of you transferred credits and liscences over from GT3?

I have no idea why Sony would include that option in a new game, starting with 100,000 credits is not challenging at all.

Another thing that annoys me in this game is the catch up boost in races... It's not quite as bad as on NFSU, but it's still enough to annoy the fuck out of me racing mates in arcade mode.

I didn't transfer credits from GT3. As you rightly said, theres no challenge in doing that.

By the way, you can turn off boost in the options.

i just bought it about 9 or 10 days ago and ive dun 32% and its pretty easy at times.
how do you get the 1997 mclaren in arcade or even in gt mode.

guys, im stuck here in this race....the last race of the professional ones....ive tried it with 3 different cars, including the PAGANI ZONDA RACE CAR that packs 1000+hp, but its just impossible to beat them!!!

which car did u guys use????

im in the same boat as you, i have a amg mercedes le-mans car and still cant keep up with the others what do you need to win this? i only need this race to move onto the extreme events.

I haven't got that far yet, but, Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak Version should do the trick I think, packing well over 1000+ BHP once you put some money into it. Not great around corners but by far the fastest car on the last GT. Should work.

a really cool website which tells you what cars you receive when completing a cup race, ie: beginners, pro, extreme, endurance, special, japanese, euro, us and all manufacturer events. check it out: http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/code/561066.html

ive tried the 3'500'000 jag with 1112 bhp and came last in the race where you dont have to break.

I've yet to unlock that championship but without breaking? Does that mean the test track? The fastest car I've got so far is the speed 12, getting something like 260 on the test track.

I love the rally races with my brother in Arcade Mode, its really tough in the beginning but once you get the hang of it, its superb.
Beating the same brother in the last corner is great too

Favourite car is the Aston DB9 or the Vantage. My favourites in real life too, its pretty heavy though.
The Skylines and Impreza are cool too though, but the Spyker is brilliant(bit of chauvinism )

 

[markanddawn]

ive completed all endurance events now im 70% through the game. just working through the manufacturer events and selling cars off as i go along. ive got £6m in the bank.

You have to win it in one of the professional races then it becomes availabe for gt and arcade mode. :angry:
