Awww damn it. I bought this game last night at Gamestop. I didn't see this post about the Platinum edition. Damn.
Games freakin hard. My roommates been helping me out with the colors lol. I can't see the red arrows coming. It just goes from green to suddenly red (color blind.) If I'm struggling in the race he'll tell me when it's about to turn red lol.
It's amazing all the customization. I wish you had to buy certain upgrades before you could buy the others. Like you had to buy a fuel set up before a turbo set up. Still an awesome game though.
Turn the racing line off and just use ABS, turn the rest of the crap off. The first few tracks are really hard especially king cobra. What car did you start off with, and what location did you pick. I don't remember what I started out with but I picked Japan, may need to change to Europe just so I can get the cars.
The trick is to be easy on the brakes and gas otherwise you risk spinning out or going off the track. I've had the game since it came out and am just now on the last 90% of the game, and getting close to level 50. you should have one of your friends gift you a car that setup to ride like it's on rails, will make the game so much easier and give you a study point to setup future cars to do the same thing.
I have 4 cars left in the Japan region and then I get that achievement and all of those or prize cars. Oh and Otterman add me, your name isn't in the GT consolidation thread or else I would have added you when I went on the huge friend frenzy a couple of days ago.
