Wondering what the rest of you guys think about GT4 (this is not
cross-posted)?
I picked it up last night and have been playing arcade for a couple hours.
I have to say I'm really unimpressed by this one. The gameplay seems about
the same -- good/great in many ways and shamefully bad in others. I suppose
I was expecting more graphically too -- that's probably the biggest let down
since I didn't really expect them to improve the gameplay flaws since they
apparently don't understand there are any. I've got a nice Sony HDTV and
frankly I just don't see a heckuva lot of difference in any of the
settings -- the difference is probably there, but my eyes just focus on how
poor the picture is overall. That's probably because with the exception of
maybe 20 hours of GTA:SA I haven't played the PS2 at all in the last several
months and haven't played GT3 in about a year, and I've kinda forgotten how
far behind the XBOX the old PS2 is. However, I feel confident there are
only very slight graphical improvements since GT3, which is kinda sad given
all the delays. Practically the same game, looks about the same, and still
no online. WTF were they doing the last several years?
My .02, but I wonder what everyone else thinks?
