Alright, so I bought GT4 after seeing some drifting videos and hearing that it's amazing. I also bought a gameshark. I used the gameshark to get $999,999,999,999 and all cars. I wanted the game for the soul reason as to drift. Did anybody else do this? I hope so, because i hate being a loner. 👍

Well I think cheating is ...cheating, but
at least you're honest about it! Gotta give some +rep for that. Anyways, I think you're missing out on the entire point of the game if you just give yourself access to everything all at once. I'll re-iterate what Duke said:
To me, playing the game is about playing the game.
1. You're missing the
spirit of racing & GT4: the struggle to learn good simulated driving. Earning gold in a license test. And then doing the next test till you earn gold there, too. Getting your ass whooped by some Ai and then
learning how to drive better to the point that you consistently whoop THEM..that's what it's all about.
2. If you have access to all the money, parts, and cars, what's to stop you from ditching one car for another if you're having a tough go of things? Do pit crews (in real life) who aren't winning a season just all a sudden go
"jeez we suck. Good thing we've got that 99 million stashed! UPGRADE!"
3. You're missing out on the awesome feeling of winning your first race (and getting paid!) You're missing out on all the milestones: first $100,000...first million....winning a prize car that you really want. Whenever I win a race-series and get paid the championship credits, I'm almost literally salivating as I wait to see what prize car I've just won!
4. Taking the "silver spoon" approach won't win you any GT cred with the real veterans and pros around here.
5. Some folks have completed the game, and then they do a 2nd game via cheating "for the fun of it". That's a completely different attack than someone who doesn't want to take the time to actually
play the game as it is...
...I think (hope) I made my point!
Like I said, at least you're honest about what you're doing. So many people cheat and won't fess up to it. 👎
As you see, cheating is fine! As long as it doesn't make the actual driving easier. That would make the game boring.
Trust me...you
will get bored. And i think you started this thread because you're intelligent enough to know better, so you want validation from other players. Since you originally bought the game to drift, you'll find you've cut yourself quite a project as cars in GT4 don't readily drift as well as they did in GT1, 2, and 3.
I'll be honest and admit that in my GT1 days and early GT2, I would occasionally cheat and pile on as much power as I could just to overkill the Ai. And you'll see what I mean...it gets boring once you remove the challenges GT intended.
