I've been playing this game for over a month now and I really like it.

I just wish they fixed the gear ratios and the crappy shifting. For example the RX8 does 0-60 in 8 seconds. Also there is a really horrid delay after shifting gears and you lose about 4000rpm on the ITR.

Still it's a fun game and the engine sounds a lot better. The ITR revving up actually sounds a bit more like a ITR, but the crossovers aren't really obvious. You can sort of hear VTEC past 6k but that's about it as it just gets louder. No 4k crossover. :happysad:

They have a thing where if you hit something at a high speed, you get a penalty. For example, you run into a wall at 100 km/h you will get a penalty where your car cannot go faster than 60 km/h for 10 seconds. A nice touch.

Graphics are 50% better, especially with s-video. The replay cameras are much better.

I love the new tracks. I think one of them was use in Best Motoring a few times. The one where you run around an Italian town is also really fun.

Basically i'd give this a 9/10 and I can't wait until GT4 is out.

McLaren F1 is in the game. A blast to drive as is the Ford GT40. The Honda Odyssey is in it too for laughs.

 

they should let us set our own gear ratios
