Default Behind the Scenes - Gran Turismo 4

http://www.motortrend.com/features/g..._0310_gt4_bts/

No mere GT3 update, GT4 is reengineered to the core with a fresh physics engine, enhanced graphics, new game features, and painstaking attention to detail. Developing such a large-scale game has sent members of the 70-person staff around the globe to obtain the data and images necessary to recreate the cars and tracks with greater detail than had been previously demonstrated. We caught up with the team at the Twin Ring Motegi course in Japan where 150 vehicles were going through an assembly line process over three days.

and it has damage
and you can't slam off of corners and keep the same speed


I have high hopes for GT4, to me, GT3 was a flop. It had nothing over GT2 other than better graphics. The only thing I still don't like about GT4 is the six car field, otherwise it's sounding excellent.

666fast were u referring to gt4 has damage?? if u r talking abou that, gt4 has no dmg, cuz of manufactur issues

the only thing i think that pgr2 is better then gt4 is that MAYBEEEE it has better graphic, and it has enzo ferrari and porsche lisesnse.. taht is the only thing that is better

pgr2 is not a simulator,, is more of a mix arcade and a bit of simulation,,

yes, very true and the crashing in PRG is terrible, you go at 160mph into a right angle corner and you come out doing 160mph in tyhe oppistie direction.

I hope they are going to have our local cars added into it.
There was a list going around that there is Holden Monaro,Commodore,Ford Falcon XR6 Turbo and XR8 and GT in the game.Is this true?I was also told that a couple of the makers of the game where out here to check out our cars..

No, I meant PGR2 has damage and GT4 doesn't.

cho_888, crashing in GT4 is ridiculous. In PGR, if you hit a wall, it'll actually slow you down, where as in GT1 -GT3, you kept the same speed.

I have nothing against GT4, I hope it's as good as you guys do! I just hope it's a huge improvement over GT3.

If you granturismo.com was working, I'd get you guys a car list, but it's been down for a few weeks now. If there is anything about GT4 you wanted to know, that is the place to go to.

man, i cant wait for this game. THEY FINALLY PUT THE MUSCLE CARS BACK IN! I love GT2 for that. I hope they do it like GT2 and put it on 2 seperate disks (arcade/simulation) that was the best way, and they got a lot more cars and tracks in that way . this game is gunna be the best game ever, im sure of that.

I can't wait for gran turismo 4. I'm going to have to dust off the old ps2

I truely hope they make more than a 6 car field. At least make it 10!! Having only 6 cars racing against you sometimes gets lonely. Especially in endurance races.

it would be even better if they could get liesences for the actually series..like le mans grand am series( i think thats wha its called) etc. then u could start with regular stock cars , and work up in the ranks...kinda have more of a career mode but with lots of different racing series incorporated into it!
