GT4 Draws Closer  by James W at 20:42

Playstation
Now just days away Grand Turismo 4 is almost upon us. Gaming Horizon have a review up worth checking out.

GT4 also doesn't offer up anything new in the gameplay department. If you've played one of the GT's, you're basically playing a prettier and beefier GT. It's buy car, race to earn credits, use credits to upgrade car to ungodly HP, and then blow away the competition to earn credits faster and easier.

The A.I. hasn't improved much over the last game's either. The computer cars stick to their given line and barring some sort of unforeseen force (i.e. you,) they won't budge an inch, resulting in some more than frustrating bumps and scrapes.

And for comparision here is a review from gamespot.

That was the one thignthey needed to fix, the AI. I won't be buying it if that hasn't improved.

Yeah I think a lot of people will still buy it but was dissapointed by some of the 'bad' on that article. The game still has a lot going for it but the AI was almost notoriously bad, its suprising they didnt do something about it.

Perhaps they can't, AI does tend to need a lot of processing power, is the PS2 up to the task?

Well they have pushed the graphics so there was clearly some head room to play with after GT3... but we can only speculate.

My brothers copy arrived today, had a go on his ps2 earlier. Have to say it was quite a good laugh.. I played GT1&2 a lot but didnt really play GT3 much so cant really compare it to that. Have to say on split-screen the fps was actually much better than other games (eg toca rd) ive tried on a ps2 and it looked great to boot.


Why not register and have your say?
