i just got my shit set up last night and my coffee table is too low... is anyone using the lap attachment thing for the wheel? how is it?
and for clarification - you can plug a usb flash drive into the ps2, load pictures onto it, then put on your pc? can the flash drive be used like a memory card for other stuff, saving games and such?

hahahah
Had it in gt3 and didn't like the dynamics of it at all. Oh the CS=Nring was more for the gt3 v.gt4 comparison. CS was the best track to tune overall for gt3 and Nring is the same for gt4. Now obviously nring is better.

yes the USB flash drive is the same as the ones you use for PC. You can have all your other PC sheit on the drive, the PS2 creates a folder called "GT4" and dumps all the pics in there. PS2 uses PC file system, so its not like you have to only use that flashdrive JUST for the PS2 or something.
The only thing is that certain flash drives are incompatible with the PS2 (very few) - SEE THIS THREAD for a complete listing and description/details of Photo Mode Storage options - if you plug it into the PS2 and don't see the option for "USB Mass Storage" when you are saving the pics, then it is most likely not compatible with the PS2. There is no setup required on the PS2 - you just stick it in and it's ready.
It can only be used for pics.

My dad just called and said he saw the game at a best buy the other night... he asked what game it was and if I wanted one...
I told him I already have it and I got it on the first day... he laughed and told me a 26 year old shouldn't be anticipating a video game so much
He wants to play the game
Junkster, who saw it on the big HDTV projection the other day at best buy

did you like the dynamics of the GT-One?

GT1 was ok but the car went through tires like crazy even when you were taking it easy. 787B didn't have enough pull. Fookin nissan.......

HELL YEA!!
If you don't want the wheel, nighthawk... just send it my way

2 notes on the black LMP cars.. taken from GTplanet.net....
so yeah.. I guess I gotta start savin' up.... and that Pescarolo is 4.5M!!! wtf... nuts.
....the black cars appear about Day 694 and last for a week in one of the used car lots... lot #2 maybe. It eats up a lot of days to earn that money (with the German series, for example), so start saving in advance. You may want to check other threads for the exact date.
I think the cost for all 4 is between 8 and 9 million credits.

black cars show up on day 694 in the NA version of the game also and the gt-one and r390 show up in the used car showroom II and the other two show up in used car showroom I also they show up at the very bottom of both of these lists
