anyone played it yet? I am looking for a decent racing game since Auto Modellista kind of sucked, and this looks halfway decent. It's by Rockstar (GTA), and IGN give it a 9.1, but Gamespot gave it a 7.3. Anyone here have an opinion on the game? I love the online possibilities... they need to implent 'tag' like on the old SF Rush games, I used to play that with my friend for hours on end!

midnight club 2 sucks butt.its like the fast and the furious video game. you win crappy make believe cars that look like civics and integras. you cant even modify them.

pressing the nitrous button lets u shoot from 70 to 160 in 2 seconds.

they tell u to "tap" the emergency brake to "drift" a corner, which you can at 100 mph at a street light in an integra.

so i returned it ^__^

why does it have to be realistic? dont you ever get bored of the realistic games. sometimes you gotta do 3 flips in your car and run 4 dudes over and then drive away from the police to have fun in video games! i thought the first one was great and really want to play this one!

1) I own GT3. Hands down best racing game ever. But I have played it far too much and want another game.2) I don't like the Need for Speed series.3) GT4 might come out in December/January IF WE ARE LUCKY, what am I supposed to do till then?4) Auto Modellista has horrible handling. Its nearly impossible to drive because with the slightest turn (and sometimes even a straight) you lose traction. I found it nearly impossible to drive in, and when you drift you lose all your speed. It wasn't even worth learning how to drive properly in the game.

I am hoping Initial D or Colin McRae Rally 3 will hold me to GT4 if I can't find another decent game before then...

well GT3 started out as GT2ooo and it took em 9months and a new title to actually get it out!, so i hope GT4 will hit more toward the planned release date, and also, about drifting, it seems like its a lot like tokyoextremeracer0, i HATE hte handling on that game, and my lil bro got that SEGA GT2oo2 and that sucked, beat it within about 10hrs overall, im on day 2ooo on my second GT3 save and still lovin it, just its startin to show its age

I like most all of em... especially the Colin games. Colin 2 has IMO the best rally car tarmac racing to date. and thats on PS1. I really like the rockstar games and how they set up the driving to be totally over the top and absurd. it's a nice change from GT3 to just let loose and start clipping pedestrians. GT3 is old to me now, i'm at 98% i think and thats far enough for me.

I think Vice City is still the king even though I cant play it anymore cuz my PS2 is sheetin the bed. My friend says its cuz i watched too many DVDs on it. Only had it like 2 years. Won't play DVDs hardly at all anymore and Vice City freezes up and crashes. Can still play some games like Socom. Anyway I'm not planning on gettin another one, might get an Xbox though, games and graphics look better.

Dude Auto Moddelista was the best game ever. If you want driving realism, go drive your car, not gt3 (aka understeer 3).

I scoured your post but I cannot find a bit of useful information in it. Care to back up anything you have said? Anything at all? Becuase Auto Modellista sucked (the handling was horrid as I explained earlier) and GT3 is the most realistic driving game I have found.

if he is saying gt3 was understeer 3 then he obviously knows nothing about how to set up a race car...

Heres the thing, i never insulted anyone, i stated my opinion. Arguing on the internet about personal preference is pointless. I just didnt get why people need to be ****s about things. I personally dont like the play mechanics of GT3, its not fun to me. When i play games i want to have fun. If i want to drive a car, i drive my car.

I don't mean to be a jerk, but was there anything about GT3's style that you didn't like, or is it that you just don't like simulation racing games? There's nothing wrong with arcade racers, I grew up on the San Francisco Rush series...:)

I like NIRA from Bethesda adn IHRA from Bethesda. They are for PC.They allow you to change almost every aspect of the cars mechanicals. They use Mr. Gaskets Desktop dyno as well so you know your mods are basically good to go on paper.
