Default Gran Turismo

Anyone knows or played this game?
I think this is one of the best racing car games. You can play in lots of tracks, earn money and buy new amazing cars, but not easy to play for the first time. You need some training to drive cars good, but when you achieve it, the game is great.

What do you think about it?

I have this game on my PS1 before and it's true it's the best car racing game out there at that time. It is very hard to master especially if you don't know how to drive a car. And one more thing, a good knowledge about cars would help you a lot.

I played it on Playstation 2, awesome game. I haven't checked out the newest one, but the simulation was very much realistic, teaches you a lot about cars. You can actually go out and about and have an idea what you're talking about when it comes to cars.

I also have it. But I couldn't master it yet.
I don't know how to drive a real car yet, so I don't think I can lay it well yet.
But it's true, to me this game is excellent. The best racing game ever!

I still think it's a great game, but I haven't mastered it. I play it a couple of hours a day, but I got bored and play another game.
I hope I could master it soon, but for now, just 2 hours is ok for me.

I have this one for Play Station 2. It's one of the best racing games ever, but too difficult sometimes to master. I've been playing it a couple of months and it's still difficult to play, but funny and the cars you can get are awesome.

I love Gran Turismo, I have a few Gran Turismon games for the PS2. They are great if you want an ultrarealistic racing game. I personally like the Rally races. I am thinking about getting a PS3 just to play a Gran Turismo game.

I know of it and have played it.

It was an excellent game back in its time and I spent lots and lots of days playing. Doing the license tests was always annoying but after they were done the game started to get more fun. Sunday cups used to also be kinda hard with the initial 10,000 credits starting money until enough credits were available to buy something like a WRX or the like. Made it all heaps easier.

Overall the best car for me was the R33 Skyline which would accelerate heaps fast at top its speed at like 380 km/h, easily owning all other cars. The GTO was also mad!

The 2nd Gran Turismo was easily just as good or possibly even better. The Eskudo was probably the car I used the most out of all of them.

I didn't really end up playing the 3rd or 4th very much but they were both quite fun and the graphics and details of the cars on both are outstanding!

Default great game

I had this game for the PS2 and found it to be the most realistic racing game out there. I have spent hours playing it but still haven't mastered it yet. Its a great game if your looking for realism but if you just want to race some cars I would recommend need for speed

I would always start with an MX-5 and then by the ford mustang (great price/power ratio)

Im with you on the Eskudo pikes peak, simply the fastes/best handling car around.

I’ve got to say GT4 is the best racing game ever, simply the way the car handles is so realistic if not frustrating for new players. Im annoyed to see some racing games with unrealistic handling, if your making a car racing game the cars should handle like, yup u’ve guessed it…cars! Otherwise you might as well make a starwars pod racing game.
