Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
GRAN TURISMO FIVE comes out in one week. This thread is designed to facilitate the grown men and women of Social Entropy in playing with pretend cars. 1031 of them.
it's really the only driving game, let alone driving simulation, that i get into.
to understand the gravity of how unusual this is, know that i don't even have a real license. i've spent more time driving in gran turismo games than i've ever spent behind the wheels of a real okay now this is just sad and i'm embarassing myself
what i like most about it is that it's as much like an rpg as a traditional driving game
winning races for cars and money, upgrading your cars very precisely, selecting the right cars for the right missions
only instead of terrible anime storylines there's fucking sweetas replays of your gorgeous car tearing it down the straights and then really messily taking a hairpin turn and being bumped into sideways by an AI Mitsubishi Lancer
the online will surely suck like the last one, but it'd be cool to get a best lap thing going if anyone else is going to play this. is anyone else going to? christ, i can't be the only one.
Oh man I completely forgot about burnout. I loved burnout 3. Only ridge racer I played was 64. I played that a bunch. But I still have burnout 3.
I bought burnout paradise on my ps3 (download) and I hated it. I just didn't like the open city and the multiplayer (or COMPLETE LACK THEREOF) pissed me off. That, and the fact that I actually bought a multiplayer pack for it, and the multi was only of the pass-the-controller variety, which was bullshit.
I'm almost certain that my brother will buy a PS3 specifically for this game.
He bought a PS2 specifically for GT4 then spent about 400 hours in it.
honestly I went to his house earlier this year and he was playing GT4
He's done those 24 hour races multiple times
Wait
There are actual, 24-hour real-time races in GT4?
A few, I think.
B-spec mode is your friend. Except I think you still have to tell your computer driver to pit to fuel up and change tyres. But if you set it to triple-speed, then the race is only 8 hours of boredom.

I played the hell out of GT3. That was probably due to how fantastic the game looked.
Couldn't get how realistic the cars looked at the time. Also going 700MPH with the Pike's Peak.

But holy fuck it looks so good
I kinda wish one of my roommates was into driving sims because I'd love to just watch somebody play this

let's talk about burnout
burnout is awesome

I remember when I played GT3, I hit a dead end really early on
'Cause license tests were impossible for me, and I couldn't do races for cash to buy other cars because I wouldn't do well in races.
So it was just me racing against other dudes in a PT Cruiser, doing terribly.
I know absolutely nothing about cars though so that probably didn't help matters.

And it is awesome, it's straight-up my favorite car-based game ever made

Sounds like somebody's living in the past, man. Contemporize!
Also it'd be pretty much impossible to do with a game like this on a technical level so you can't really fault them for it
