Could you add me pls DD (Ariel-Atom-245).... thanks!Dice if you could add me please.
Anyone driven the Subaru VGT car? It sounds rather good, they've actually manage to capture the old-school flat-four noise. But for some reason it drives like it's FF, even though it states 4WD. Plant it from standstill and the front wheels spin... For the diff settings and you only get adjustment for the front, not the rear. Very strange considering it's supposed to have torque-vectoring.

Thought I'd fire this up for the first time in a Loooong time at the weekend.
So had a big PS update then the usual large GT update to download.
Nice to notice They have finally got the message about the sound, all the cars sound better now and some sound very good.
Got a Birthday car too (Forgot GT did this, nice touch).
Still a bloody good driving game, esp online...set up a open public lounge at Brands Hatch then spent a good three hours running around in various cars with different randoms.
Roll on GT7
ds. If they give me another one this year I can use them as roller skates.Gassing Station | Video Games | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
