I can't wait to get it just to be able to drive the Muscle cars is there a large variety of them. I used to love playing Gt2 just so I could race the Plymouth Super Bird that car rocks!!! I dont think I could play it very long now the graphics suck on the second Gt but it was a sweet game! My favorite game that I play the most it Gta San Andreas the possiblity of what you can do seem endless I beat it months ago with out cheating!!! LOL and I still play it and explore just to see what I can find or looking for the next jump that will launch me off a scyscraper.
 
GT-4 does have off-road rally and is so much better imho than the Xbox Rally games. Most is on-road but there is a good portion on off-road in this game. Enough to make it worth your purchase I would think.
 
if you havent driven the nurb yet ingame... i suggest you get a race car and drive it asap... best track I've ever played a game on...... it actually makes me happy to race all of its 12 miles
 
I just finished up my IB liscence. I must say that the hardest one for me was IB-15 and driving that piece of crap 65' alpha romeo. However when you are done, you do get a pretty sweet concept car from Nike. It's too bad that companies have to advertise like this in the game. Oh well, she is still pretty sweet. Check her out:

yeah but you can't drive it in any races..... I'm working on my s license atm

I'm strapped for cash and should really just dump everything i get in my supra instead of buying new cars

Yeah, I just found that out. That really sucks that you can't race with it. You can't even sell it for anything, but you can tune it up in the garage and waste some money on it. Where's the logic in that?

Anyway, I just finished up the IA liscence and am now on the S. Hopefully, that will be accomplished soon. I still haven't even bought a car yet, I've just been doing the liscences.
 
man, I'm slackin. I only have my B lisence, LOL. I'll do as much as I can with that then I'll go get my A and so on. How are you guys doin on your lisence tests? They seem to be a bit tougher than GT3. I managed 10 gold and 6 silver for my B license. Infineon is an awesome track! Now I REALLY wanna go see the NASCAR race there!
 
Got the game on Thursday. I just finished my IB this morning. Still havent spent a dime and havent bought a car yet. Just the ones I've won. So far I'm pretty split between gold and silver. There are just some that no matter what I do I can't get to that gold mark... turned 30 and lost my skills...damn!!! lol
 
I've been working on the driving missions got the first 10 done so far. they are prettty fun.
how did you like the nurb test dl? i had sweaty palms after it, but it was loads of fun
 
i didnt use a kasabi to beat it... i think i used a mini cooper..... I'm racing professional series now
 
I havent even run my first race...just getting licenses. It will be a WHILE before I finish this. Took me almost a year of on and off playing to finish GT3...
 
i never finished gt3. got to the point where i fell asleep at the wheel.
almost at 11% complete :D

I'm postponing my S license till i need it because right now i get nothing for having an S

got 3 cars i mainly race now
loaded ginetta g4
loaded lotus elise 111r
stock dodge viper(new model)


elise is my fave so far. dodge stock is kinda difficult, and the g4 is a whoooooollleee different driving style then anything else(but its the best car in its catagory so I'm forced to learn it)

i just picked up a '86 THATS 1886 mercedes patent motor cart thing.... tried to drive it on the nurb. got to 8 mph on the straigt, hit the hill, stopped, and rolled backwords

LMAO! HAHAHAHAHA! Great stuff Arrow! keep i comin.
 
I haven't done any races yet, but just finished up getting ALL my liscenses: A, B, IA, IB, and S. Oh yeah!

Now it's time to go check out the used car lots and hit some of the tracks. Is it just me or did the liscenses seem alot easier than in GT3? The S liscence was definitely alot easier, (considering I never got the S liscence in GT3). For some of the tracks, they used the same ones that are in GT3. So if you know how those tracks are setup, it really helped getting your S liscence a breeze. The hardest one that I had to try several times was S-13 and driving the Audi-R8 Race Car. The car doesn't handle that good to be a race car and you can't see far down the track due to the small hills.

BTW, I hope everyone runs the game in cockpit view. You really feel the intensity when you blast down the track at 235mph. IMO, 3rd person is for suckers..............
 
you know the audi r8 wins races in real life with ease right? lol i blame it on you :D

and that 237 mph first person veiw was NUTZ
i never felt that fast before from a game
 
i read on a wed site that there was 3 24 hour races when i get mine on the weekends not going to get much sleep.
 
you can only enter endurance races after you complete 25% of the game...... dont plan on playing the race this weekend
