In Gran Turismo 4, the characteristics of the cars are realistically designed and calculated so that they handle to the “real-life” physics of that particular vehicle, taking into account weight, speed, friction, wind, and more. To further enhance the realism of the driving experience, new technology blends real-time action with a photo-fixed background to immerse the player in real-life environments such as New York City, the Grand Canyon and others. Highly detailed vehicles and environment mapping create broadcast-quality graphics, from light and competitor car reflections on the player’s automobile to leaves on a tree shaking in the wind.

In gameplay, players will have the opportunity to race in an enhanced arcade and simulation mode based upon similar game mechanics from Gran Turismo 3 A-spec. In both modes, players will have access to experience more than 500 authentic automobiles encompassing manufacturers from around the world, with a range from vintage to modern vehicles. Courses include existing closed racing circuits to specially designed city courses, reaching a total count of up to 100 tracks.

The arcade mode allows players to compete against each other or the artificial intelligence on select courses. The simulation mode allows players to start from the bottom and earn their way up the ladder as they acquire driving licenses, race to earn money, unlock cars and courses, buy and sell cars, upgrade parts and compete in various championships. Playable from both first- and third-person perspectives, Gran Turismo 4 offers advanced opponent behavior to capture real-life racing and unpredictability of finishes.

great

This game is a huge leap from the last game of its series. Though it is very different from other racing games,(even the other gran turismos), getting used to it can be very rewarding. One thing that really is great is the track selection and the quality of the tracks; the graphics compared to other simulations game are very good. The tracks are all very unique, so it is a great addition to the ga...[More]


Way too hard!
By: Such _bad    Favorite Category: Sport    Date: Wednesday, Oct 21, 2009
I have had many racing games in the past but this one is way too hard. I started the game and it looked really good, then when I found out I had to pass driving tests, my heart dropped. Driving tests just to race! It is really realistic but too hard. The driving tests are like you have too complete the whole track without touching one foot of the track. How am I supposed to do that. If you can't g...[More]


Hated it at first, love it now!

Greatest game ever made for ps2. At first I hated it, because Need for Speed Most Wanted was the closest I had ever come to playing a simulation racer. But after learning how to drive, and taking the time to beat the B Class license, it is the funnest racer I have ever played.

Challenge: HARDEST AND LONGEST GAME EVER (In a good way). You have to play an hour long license test just to f...[More]
