Oh dear Play have just despatched my copy.. there goes normal life for a few weeks. It would have got here earlier but the order was placed soooooooooo long ago that my credit vard was invalid when they finally tried to process the order!

Items dispatched on 8 Mar 2005: Delivery estimate: 9 Mar 2005 * 1 of: Gran Turismo 4

Unfortunately, my postcode seems to suffer some sort of time-dilation phenomenon which means I probably won't get it for 5 days

[tonyhetherington]

Mine got posted yesterday from play but I leave home before the postman delivers.. fingers crossed it's there for when I get home!!

[samol]

no offers for the kids then!!!
just had enough time to thrash a clio sport around the ring.

It's the rules, you have to start with the cars in your own stable...

This is the begining of a long spell of over tired Pheaders

Just got a call from home - It's arrived

...but still got another 4½ hours at work

[maranellouk]

Poor boys, been playing GT4 for 2 months now. Really isn't anything to get excited about. Graphics are over-hyped, car choice is lousy......I could go on.












Bollocks it is! Enjoy it, I got me two of the GT4 wheels. One is actually more expensive than a chipped, slim PS2. The other wheels are cheaper but not even close to the same quality. 270 degree lock to lock!

Just walked in with me PSP too! Bought it with Need for Speed Underground Rivals. Very nice bit of kit.

I thought the wheel of choice was 900° ?

[maranellouk]

yep, my mistake. Bloody expensive though when you get two. Don't want any moaning about how they lost because of the pad.

thats a terrible cough you have there, why are you wearing your coat? do you have a fever?

maybe you should go home, and take tomorrow off too.

[whittaker52]

Mine arrived this morning. ive been playing it all morning too! its fantastic! ive done the first 3 licence, just gotta work on international A and special licence, oh and decide which car to buy first - T350C or Caterham.... this may take some time!

You get enough money to start with a new TVR or Caterham? That's better than GT3 when all you could afford was a nissan spasmo 1.1...

[mr_yogi]

If you have a GT3 save you can transfer upto 100,000 credits (I think).

As mentioned above ive transferred some money and licences from GT3 and GT4P, so that gives you an extra 100,000 credits.

Has anyone had the sound fault on iA-7 yet using the RUF?

[aut0m0tive]

Amazon assures me mine'll be throught the letter box tommorow...

One quick question: Can you drive the 'ring straight away?! Or do you need to do x amount of licences/races?

[Plotloss]

Tesco's start selling it at Midnight if you really cant wait...

Ok...so if you are out of money but have loads of cars in GT3...sell ALL the cars in your garage, then save to a DIFFERENT memory card (so you don't erase all your hard work.). Then transfer all those credits to your new GT4 ?

Genius!

Oh crap...I only have 1 memory card at home!! Any ideas anyone?

Yep, you can. you go into the "world circuits" menu on the far left of the main screen, and then scroll across to the ring. but like the real ring, it costs you! 5 credits for a free run, 5 credits for a race meeting, 3 credits for a photo drive, or you can do a family cup which costs you nothing.
