Nonononono...

It's supposed to go like this:
PS2 = $150
Wheel = $30-$150
GT4 = $50
Total = $230-$400 (there probably won't be a bundle deal)

Smoking the fark outta those trash-talking wheenies on AZ = $priceless

Hmmm...I know there are a couple of video game shows on TV but they are quite lousy.

As for video game mags, I stick to EGM.
Had a subscription going with them forever until I decided that online reviews like IGN.com and Gamespot.com were just as effective and are free.

Hrm...you know what? I do vaguely remember a really nicely drawn blue Blanka. It'd take me weeks to go through my mags...

But, nice!

No, supposedly, you had to win all your matches PERFECT up to Bison...

Then, when you face Bison, you had to draw him twice without getting hit...THEN, in Round 3, Sheng Long would appear.

I was truly trying to achieve that feat...Although, I did get alot of high scores!

Release date for GT4...

...for Europe.

Man, this is just peachy. I think Polyphony is mocking the North American fans...or reading this board.

Ripped from IGN.com...

======================

February 1, 2005 - Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has announced that Gran Turismo 4 has a release date of March 9… for Europe. Maddeningly, there is still no date as of yet for North America even as the North American release was at one time going to be just a couple of weeks after the Japanese release which then got bumped back to December 28.



The European version of GT4 will feature 10 more cars. Some cars that will be included here are the new Alfa Romeo GT, the Audio Nuvolari Quattro, HPA Motorsports' modified Golf IV R32, the Auto Union V16 Type C race car, the Chaparral 2J race car and the Le Mans winning Peugeot 905. It's a good time to be in the PAL areas after all.

I've got enough to do at the moment, I don't feel having GT4 would help my current goings-on. I'm in no hurry to play it.

I'm surprised the Euro version has 10 more cars... I was under the impression that all versions would have the same number of cars. That is sweet, maybe the US version will get even more cars...
