Ok,

Heres a new thread as the older one has served its purpose, this is the gameplay thread now.

Few bits of info for people.

You start with $200,000

Cheapest houses at start ar $150,000 and the renting of a car is $1-2,000ish

So about $47,000 for your first car

What are your impressions of this game?

Mr.Orb · 7 Sep 2006 at 13:52

If you crash the car do you have to pay to get it repaired? Can you buy insurance?

What is the handling like?

The demo seemed really poor, the steering was all over the place in my opinion.

McDaniel · 7 Sep 2006 at 14:46

Its not to bad, still adjusting myself though - you can tweak a lot more then in the demo like the sensitvity etc..

McDaniel · 7 Sep 2006 at 14:49

Ok;

Photo Mode unlocks when you reach Amatuer rank (5 Gold Medals in Time Trial/Races etc..)

Played the demo, good gfx, but the physics is totally wrong! The demo is enough for me without even buying it. Roll on GTR

Soulja · 7 Sep 2006 at 16:20

i thought that after i read his post fully, been up since 5am

Nismo · 7 Sep 2006 at 16:21

I love it, chances are if you didnt like the demo you wont like the full game, but I think its brilliant. Some of the roads on the island are great to just blast along.

Re: the handling, turn the driving aids off, apparently it improves it a lot

McDaniel · 7 Sep 2006 at 16:25

Lol Wyrdo - im in the car park - ive just had a shower so AFK for 10min ne way

Soulja · 7 Sep 2006 at 16:25

I had a quick go and liked it, the handling seems to have really improved since the demo
