So, if you can, try to win the F094/S...!

I have to check that too. I think I have gold in all but one of the formula GT races that I've attempted (7 races attempted in the circuit). I haven't booted the game up in months so I'm probably wrong.

So is it true that GT4 will have two releases? One without online play, and a later one with? I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere that that was the plan...

Yeah. That was my reaction too when I read somewhere that it was doable to take on the Series with any of the F1 carts. I just don't see how as there is that one cart driven by the computer that is just daylights faster and better-handling...I can never catch him esp. in the Test Course.

As for online play, all we can do is cross our fingers. But, the early word is: no.

If you mastered the Vitz series, you'll be fine for the Formula GT...

Thanks again for the settings!

this thread needs some help!!!

GT4 will feature backfire.....

these were taken with a low-mp cell phone at a demo in Japan and that's why they look the way they do - but it shows the realistic backfire in GT4....

oh i dunno, it would depend, i assume, on the setup like other MP games. Whoever sets the room up would determine the number of players and makeup. I remember reading up to 6 players.

gosh that is a sweet graphic....

in an arguably related news, I had the unfortunate displeasure of playing some PGR2 and MotoGP 3 on Xbox last night... these are just terrible, terrible games. Realistic damage is great, but who the fuk cares when the car has ABSOLUTELY NO FEEL WHATSOEVER WHEN DRIVING!!! You don't even feel like you are in control of the car, movements are laggy, hell the response seems downright RANDOM at times. Drifting in this game is one of the most :ghey: experiences one can have on a console.

MotoGP3 is, useless... /rant

most likely it will not have 2-player + 4 AI cars full-field racing... it is just too much for the PS2 to handle at once...

I instead highly recommend multiplayer racing with iLink....
