Gran Turismo Platinum
|
|
|
| Description:
Gran Turismo is the new definition of a great racing game. With wonderful graphics, TV-like replays and an entire host of cars to chose from, this instant classic goes beyond a driving game into the realm of driving simulator. You can choose between the arcade version (featuring classic cars such as Corvettes and Aston Martins) or the simulation, which is the true heart of the game. The simulation starts you on an entire racing career beginning with a cheap used car and second-rate tracks. You will find yourself longing for the Dodge Viper as your sad starting fund puts you behind the wheel of a used Honda Prelude or Mazda RX-7. As you win races, acquire money and earn advanced licenses, you are able to buy better cars and race in more competitive matches right up to the GT World Cup. Complete with cunning renditions of actual car models and a very playable interface, this game is great for the serious racing simulation fan and the casual gamer. It promises instant action and the kind of gradual advancement that keeps gamers playing for weeks. While the license tests can be hard, the fun track design and sheer number (140-plus) and variety of cars to choose from makes this an exciting race experience. --Allen Stewart

It is the best driving game ever

Actually. GT2 never made it, because it should have had the GT2 'Demo' layout with unavailable things open. But. GT1 is still the best after all those years. In Arcade mode you only get six manufacturers. but you have ten in the Gran Turismo mode where you get behind the wheel of a second-hand FC Efini RX-7. a Honda Prelude or Toyota Supra. As you win races. you get more money to 'upgrade' your car to make it faster. You will need 'licenses' to enter certain races. The B Licence is very easy. and allows you to enter the 'Sunday Cup' a championship race with slow cars. But. the A license is very hard, and the IA License is full lap courses to be completed within the time limit. And. you will eventually have a Dodge Viper. and then one of the prototype LM Cars (though the Subaru Rally Edition is not one)and then. you win brand new cars (by doing the Sunday Cup you get a crappy Mazda Demio but keep selling those Demios before you can afford a Dodge Viper. You can wash your car and there is 3 endurance races (the Grand Valley one is 60 laps) You get to test your car and SO MUCH MORE! A must buy! 1000/1000 |

NOT A GOOD RACING SIMULATOR
(June 01, 2004) |

This game is not as good as GT2 and is a rubbish game with terrible graphics and is just worse than any other racing game on Playstation 1 Not like GT2 That is much better and GT1 is not even real driving. Buy GT2 for your own benefit If you have not got a Playstation 9002 Series which broke down when i had one
or a PSone console Get one then get GT2 Do not get GT1 |

Hasn't been bettered

When I bought Gran Turismo, I thought that it would be a good game, I mean a really good game. My thoughts weren't even a fraction of what it turned out to be, it was (and still is) amazing!! I have played GT2 a few times, but it isn't quite as good as GT1. The handling, the detailed graphics, the engine sounds, the sheer adrenalin of going round a corner as fast as possible is unbelievable. I have definitely got my money's worth with this game and I am looking forward to playing GT3! |

Grand turismo 1 and 2 are just the best racing games out

Grand Turismo is great, it has lots of race tracks, 10 to 11 manafacture garages (inc) Toyota, Nissan, Honda and Dodge. You can sport up your cars by tuning them in and buying better engines. Did I say that you can even by cheaper used cars its excellant. just one thing wrong with it when you crash you cant see any damage on the car. But apart from that it's one of the best race games ever ( its a must have at a good low price) worth getting By James B 6/JUNE/01 |

Gran turismo is a game that never gets boring. There is always something to aim for, and so you will be playing for a very long time before you are satisfied. The gameplay is amazing, and the graphics are simply superb. I have had this game for a very long time now and i still play it regularly. A must have! |
