Comment made before even starting the video, let's see if you mention this: Started a playthrough a couple of weeks ago, decided to do the 1000 Miles championship in a slightly tuned Ginetta G4 (That you win very early on in the game). Long, but in B-Spec at 3x is very manageable. After doing that championship I'm at less than 5% of the game completed with 900.000 credits in the bank.
circuits: made to be raced on people: I don't want to race on it, it's too realistic go play mario kart then. gt sport added by far the best fictional circuits, lago maggiore and dragon trail produced some of the most fun races I've done. To be honest, gt should add more real circuits, or something that reminds them. I want to race historic circuits, not some street "rome" circuit that flows terribly.
Back in the day of low graphics it was easier to invent some simple circuits or have them based on something existing. But then racing games became one of the genres with leading graphics and developers had to fly out to tracks and go measure everything themselves. But by now everyone has the most important circuits mapped or the circuits themselves have a digital plan for sale. So the main reason you always see the same (popular) tracks in racing games is because they are the least amount of work and cost to add. It now takes more manhours to make someone in the team come up with something completely and create it from nothing.
Has anybody fully completed the game? Like 100% it? Cause i finally got there. The really nice thing about that is, you get the black F1 car to add to my collection of all the colors for the f1's but I do remember getting all the secret cars in the 90's and the other one. I thought the Nissan cp race car had the fastest speed? Anyway I definitely loved this gt over any other one, plus there's no limit (I think) to how many Cr.'s you can own. I got lil over 1 billion, so i couldn't tell yuh if there is a limit. But i still haven't bought every car and upgraded it yet got most of'm though.
with that interview and the drawings being taken down, Kaz could’ve learned not to hold on to something forever, therefore some *questionable* to say the least design choices were made
Yet here I am, been playing since the original gt, through to 4. Then I stopped gaming until I bought a ps5 for Christmas. I've enjoyed gt7 so much that I bought the psvr2, g923 and a gt lite cockpit. Playing gt7 in vr is the most fun I've had playing video games in my life
On the subject of Toca 3, lots of good options there, particularly from the Supercars Series and British touring cars. As well as my favourite weird street circuit, the Norisring. Automobilista also has some good deep cuts, particularly in South America (which, I mean, it has licenses from a couple Brazilian racing series so that makes sense) The Ride series grabbed a few that I think aren't even super-well-known for motorcycle racing. First one has Almeira and Potrero de los Funes, second added Vallelunga and the North West 200, 3 added Casteletto, Franciacorta, Imatra, Macau, Okayama and Billown, 4 added Mosport, VIR, the Utah Motorsports Campus and Dundrod, 5 added Almeria and Ricardo Toro. And now, a partial list of tracks that haven't been in anything major to my knowledge but I'd love to see in something: Motorland Aragon, Kuwait Motor Town, the Slovakia Ring, Barber Motorsport Park, Paul Armagnac, Jarama, the Toronto Indy street circuit (I am from Toronto and therefore biased), Inje Speedium, the Nashville street circuit, Pau, Vila Real, Highlands Motorsport Park, the Townsville street circuit, Calder Park, the Salzburgring, Trois-Rivieres, Mandalika, Arctic Circle, the Gotland Ring, Chang, the St. Petersburg (Florida) street circuit, Navarra, Montjuïc Charade, Pescara, Targa Florio, Bilster Berg
I just did the Super Formula extra menu book because i have 2 and wanted to get some credits, and especially at fuji, its like the AI don’t even know you’re there. I would be on the inside, hugging the apex, and the AI hears “sharp right” from no one and crashes into me
NFS tasted pro racing circuits a little earlier than pro street, at NFSU2 the URL circuits take you into the Bayview speedway, wich maybe is all fictional but kinda gets you into the real racing mood.
It is pretty disheartening that the Nismo GTR LM Race car never came back, that was a staple of the first Gran Turismo, same with the Castrol Supra in the same game.
What we need at this point is Gran Turismo Skyblivion. Fans, players and modders all teamed up on a voluntary basis to port a well loved older game in the series (TES4 Oblivion) into the latest iteration (TES5 Skyrim)’s engine. If we could port the OG tracks and cars of GT1-6 into the engine of 7, I would be on board immediately. I’ll take SSR5,7&11 and Tokyo R246 over Tokyo Expressway any day of the week. And the indecencies done to Trial Mountain and Deep Forest are irritating at best. But the absolute sacrilege done to Grand Valley is inexcusable! I was outraged!
I mite quit playing GT7 for real yo the game is just not fun the vehicle psychics are atrocious I hate how you brake early in a braking zone and it takes you further until your of track it totally not scripted it should not take you further then that, the game is evil man I'm gonna quit for reals, this game no reason to be out anyway.
Awesome video. While I did like getting tons of cars for free that I probably never would have driven from the menu, I didn't like being forced to only do the menu. I really miss buying a cheap used Chevy and working up from nothing
Trial Mountain and Grand Valley are two of my favourite circuits. That says a lot for the fictious tracks in Gran Turismo. For RL tracks, nothing beats The Nordschleife.
I think VGT works best either as something like the Tomahawk and these insane “what if” type cars or very serious attempts at essentially making a normal concept car like the Honda sports VGT. So many of them are these bulky pancakes (long, wide, and flat) styled into oblivion that are too implausible to be a road car but still make a halfhearted attempt to be kinda realistic in a way that ruins a lot of the fun of them, at least to me.
ive seen the vertigo give some tough battles in the Gran Turismo 4 world championship races. some courses its dead last others its on your ass at the front. also. no chaparral 2j? that car was gran turismo 4 endurance
Bro sta battuta non era necessaria mi sa ma comunque ottima battuta (For the none Italian guys, Altezza Means height in italian, but can be translated in 'Being up for the task'. So the Joke Is 'The Altezza Is Not UP for the task/challenge' or whatever)
When I played Forza Horizon 4 (first of all Forza franchise) I thought - what the hell the Forza Edition is - it's the same car! Or Preorder Car - it's also the same car! Only their specs vary a bit. Now, that I've discovered marvellous GT universe with GT3, GT4 (love it) & GT5, I finally understood that Forza went very, very easy on the aspect of duplicate cars)
Don't you like the notorious "East City" ost bro? haha... it's the only song that I love it's variations among GT versions. Well I love how you sincerely respected the creator behind their masterpiece! Good video 😊
This is the first video of yours I’ve ever seen, loved the detail and, as an ardent pedant, loved the lack of any historical inaccuracies - which would be so easy to do in a video of this scope! My adolescent years were spent playing Toca Race Driver 1 - 3 and there were a few obscure circuits in there like the Vancouver Street Circuit, Mantorp Park and the pre-F1 layout of Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico City - it was even the pre-CART/Champ Car layout without the first baseball-stadium bypass of the full Peraltada final turn. TI Circuit AIDA, Oran Park (before it was demolished ☹️) and the Canberra Street Circuit were also crammed in there. I also played Race Pro years later which had a very similar feel to it to me. That game had oddities like Curitiba, Pau and Boavista. I miss the days of these obscure circuits and beautifully balanced cars to hoon around in them!
I haven't finished the video yet, but i bet the Toyota LMP car you get for winning the 24 hrs of Le Mans in GT5 is on here. The entire 24 hours race and all you get is an LMP car that's probably worse than the one you just used.
