What exactly does it mean to have this recognized by the FIA? Sounds like marketing speak.

From what I've read, it's an FIA recognized racing series.
I think the quote I read was something like, imagine standing next to Lewis Hamilton at the awards ceremony & you never left your couch.
Maybe a way for people to possibly get into a real drive?

I am curious what the end result from the series is. I wonder how many game users would be as good in a real car
Lot easier to be reckless when you can hit the reset button.

And the sound! Hopefully we get some much more realistic engine notes.

That was one of my favorite parts of the older games, going to the different dealerships and hearing the different music.
I remember being blown away by how many cars there were in GT. Now that I look at it I think, that's it?
On the other hand, GT4's city looks super cluttered.
Also, car washes and oil changes. Forgot those were things.

Got me started on this big nostalgia trip, M.
Spending like 70k credits on the racing livery and having no idea WTF it was for. But some of them looked cool, so... sure.
Stage 4 turbo kit ALL the things
Brakes and suspension not really needed since you just use the other cars and walls to slow down/help turn. But money is burning a hole in your wallet, buy them anyway.
Plus, this car... at the speed

oh yeah, the TVR Speed 12, a car capable of sublimation. Rubber becomes smoke from like 1st to 4th gear.
and GT2 was bugged where you couldn't get 100% completion

woof, memory cards too. Shitttt
My older brother and his roommates back in the day were too cheap/forgot to buy a memory card initially for one of the games. But they made so much progress that they didn't wanna lose it, so they didn't turn off the Playstation and kept playing GT every day. Took over a week for them to finally buy a card.
In the first or second game, with me being a dumb and impatient kid, I didn't like how long it took for the credits to transfer to you when you finish a race... like when you get awarded 10,000cr or whatever and it depletes to 0, then you can proceed. I started button smashing and discovered it counted down to 0 much faster.
The biggest "revelation" I had was that when doing this, you sometimes got a free car!
I showed my brother this "trick" and he was surprised. He tried it, and it worked! He trusted me implicitly, as even though I was a little kid, I played a shit ton of games and probably knew what I was doing. His friends button mashed religiously, even if they lost a race.
Later, I found out the free car thing was a reward for winning certain races, but didn't think much of it. Couple of my brother's friends were pretty big dudes, and I guess the repeated stress of them mashing and taking their anger out when the "trick" didn't work resulted in at least one broken controller.
Eventually one guy wanted to see what would happen if you don't button mash. The credit reward rolled in, and he still got the free car. Tried to tell the friend group, but they doubted him. Bunch of dudes watched him do a race, but the most anticipation was for the post-race.
Myth was debunked and my brother got a ton of shit for spreading misinformation
When I finally started hanging out with his friends, I must have heard that story at least 3x. I still owe them a controller.

did you also put rubber bands on the controller to hold the gas and steering locked so its on auto-pilot?

Awwww yesssss, so many good memories.
That's it, I'm definitely getting PS5 now.
You guys on the Best Buy/Target/Gamestop pre-order email list?
Hopefully not too difficult to get a PS5 in the initial batch.....

GT4 had the HPA VW R32 with all the highest upgrades that think stuck to the road with unreal acceleration. You could just race over and over the race that gave the Castrol Toyota offroad car worth like 265k when you sold it and make millions easily. Wasn't really a cheat but was super helpful in buying cars.

Lame PS4, it didn't even get a Gran Turismo. That's why I never bothered buying it.

No it doesn’t count. It’s not the same as GT6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

May need to do the same.
At least it would be viable as a PS3 replacement for the 65" 4k in the living room.

I'm going to hide it from the wife. The thing is, she won't even know because she'll assume it's just the PS3.

Yeah, that's what I meant. I'll buy it in secret, and just swap it out in the tv cabinet and she won't even know.
