Fun:
GT 4 is the standard which all racing games are judged, and rightly so due to the amazing physics that have been reached with that 4th installment. Although you've heard "just as good as Grand Turismo" before (as with the woeful "Enthusia"), this one truly is a match. There is no mental compensation for any idiosyncries, you simply drive this as you would drive real cars. It appears to have been designed for the Driving Force Pro wheel, because it works just absurdly well with it. You can let the car find its own path like Lauda or Prost, or manhandle it like Mansell. The wheel kickback is just perfect. The drawback with Gran Turismo is that beyond a some great new addtions (like Le Mans), there's mostly the same tracks that have been in the series since the beginning. if you're looking for new tracks, this is for you. To true racing conniseuers, some of the best racing going these days is the DTM and Australian V8 sedan series. All those great European tracks and Australian tracks are here, plus the new tracks in Shanghai and Istanbul (with that wild four apex corner). I've seen former F1 drivers who are driving DTM say what a blast these cars are, and it shows here. The Australian cars are just as good. But those are just two of the classes here. There's open wheel cars and sports cars of all types to run these tracks, including classics going all the way back to the '30s. There's also a small American oval series that has four very different ovals, including a very well done version of Indy. There's also both a short dirt track and rally series which actually exceeds the shortcomings of GT4 dirt track races (although still short of the standard, 2001's still great "WRC"). This is obviously aimed at a European market, so for American fans of European racing, you will love this.
