I'm 28 and remember the first time I played GT1 at a girlfriends house on her brothers ps1, had to get hold of one after that and progressed to GT2 when it came out (was that the scratch and sniff disc?), was a bit late getting a ps2 as I moved out of home when I was 17 so I eventually got one with GT3 then moved on to GT4, remember that none of my friends ever wanted to race against me in split screen so if they did I would always 'lose' control just before the finish line and let them win! Bought a ps3 ready for GT5's release, but that was about 3 years ago, and still waiting............!! But GT5p has filled the time, I even went back to GT4 when I purchased a DFGT.
Glad to see there are some older users out there, now I can tell the wife I'm not just a big kid!
