what was the best Gran Turismo game?

[y2blade]

I'd say GT3

what about you guys?

[Z06George]

GT2-I kow the graphics weren't great, well cpmpared to todays standards, but I loved the tracks the cars and the fact you could stick racing paint and body mods to almost every car. And it had the team Oreca Viper when it was white,red and blue not red.

I agree. GT was better than GT2 but the combination of better apparent realism of physics and better graphics won the day for GT3.

Gt4 for me...

Although GT2 was good. Basically any version with an even number!

scrap that...I ment GT2, the last one for PS1 was my favourite

GT3 was the pretty one with dodgy handling wasn't it?

[anonymous-user]

For me the original..

It was the first game on a console that got me hooked for days on end..

Buying a Mitsubishi GTO and getting it to 1000hp..

It pretty much filled the motorgame gap since pole position

GT4 was the one with the dodgy handling. They made it too sensitive for use with the dual shock controller.

[MondeoMan1981]

GT2 or GT3 for me.

IMO the original GT was the best, it was the first time you could choose from loads of fast 'normal cars' in a game, MkIII Supra -> Celica GT4 -> TVR Grifith -> NSX, and drive them around some truely fantastic tracks (Apricot Hill, Grand Valley, Trail Mountain to name but 3), then you'd buy another version of your favorite cars so you could add the racing modifications without loosing the normal version

IIRC GT2 just added more tracks (of which Seattle being the best), more cars with extra shinyness and theat lost their shinyness as you drove them, and a car wash.

While GT3 was also very good, by that time you'd got used to having all the cars from GT2 so was a bit of a backwards step.

GT4 was just full of promise and never truely delivered, more a jack of all trades and master of none Although the 'ring was excellent.

For me 3 had the best game play but 2 looked the best (at the time and I didn't have 1 first) and had a mental amount of cars but it was far too buggy though.

GT3

[jazzybee]

Definately GT3 for me.

[davepoth]

GT2 for me, first game that had a '70 Dodge Challenger R/T in Alpine White...

[Emubiker]

Yup im in with the GT2 crew. GT3 was a dissapointment with the lack of cars and no more "racing preperation". GT4 was pretty good but all the cars had far too much rear grip (ecept maybe the cobra)

[T89 Callan]

GT2, it was a stone cold classic.

GT3 was crap and GT4 was painfully boring.

Sadly if the historic trend continues GT5 will be one of the worst games ever made...

And then if you went in to the car settings for your stock one all the aftermarket parts were there still so you could add them on. Also if you sold the car and then bought another one the parts would still be there.

For me GT was the best, it was the first of its kind and really wowed me with its graphics and the depth of gameplay with the license tests, the number of cars and tracks and being able to modify the cars.

GT2 still impressed as it had even more cars and tracks but to me the graphics were not as good.

GT3...oh they left the license tests in but it got a wet weather track and it was good to see the game with graphics that matched the reputation for realism.

GT4...again with the license tests?!?! It was fun the first time, novel the 2nd time and tedious by the 3rd game! And after all that development time and waiting for it to come out we still only get 1 wet weather track and 6 cars on track. I liked the 'Ring but not much else about it.

Did anyone else manage to drive the really really old cars on GT4? I won a couple but could never get them to actually move?!

[FM]

GT4 was the pinnacle for me...3 was superb...but the extra features of 4 hit the spot. Will probably splash out on a PS3 & GT5 when finally released like I suspect a great many will who went the 360 route after the good old PS2.
Blu-ray bonus too..

[Gun]

For me

GT2 > GT4 > GT1 > GT3.

[vdubbin]

GT2 had the Karting track, didn't? I wasted many hours getting a Sileighty sideways arouns that thing, great fun altogether.

GT4 is still the best though, the first game to feature the Nurburgring!
