Hi guys,

Not so new to the forum as I have been reading you for the most part that GT7 was released and got wonderfull advice here.
I have played GT series from the very first one. I think I have only skipped GT3 and GT Sport.
I play on a T300rs mounted on a Playseat on my good old PS4. Will switch to a PS5 whenever it is justified, but it makes no sense for me so far, and I chose to invest my money instead.

I enjoy fighting games shooters action rpg. Pretty much anything I'll give a try. And here to just learn new stuff and make some friends.

Salut,
J’ai trouvé GTPlanet par le biais d’un lien pour une voiture dans Race Department
Je suis du sud de la France
J’ai commencé à jouer à des jeux de course sur mon Atari début des années 80 :)) Je ne suis pas jeune en fait!
Je joue avec Fanatec CSL DD 8nM avec 4 volants différents
Je ne joue qu’à des jeux de course automobile : Rfactor2, iRacing, AC, ACC
Je ne sais pas vraiment pour être honnête, mais visiblement y trouver des mods rares et de qualité ;)

I visit GTPlanet when googling for GT4 Tips (tuning and used cars) and for interesting mods.
Been playing games since as little as 8. Mostwanted and GT4 were my first games.
No steering wheel, as i am still a gap year. (who just resigned from a auto workshop because i wanna get into college), so i got a cheap digtal input controller
Other games i like are Assetto Corsa and Forza Horizon 4
Enjoying updates on cool mods created by the community, still amazes me tho how an old game can be polished again.

Hi, I'm Dan. I found GTPlanet looking for all sorts of GT7 info, it keeps popping up on Google with useful info so I thought I'd actually make an account. I'm from Hampshire in the UK.

First racing game I played was probably micro machines on the NES way back in the day. Played a bunch of GT games as they came out. Took a bit of a break for the last few years and now I'm back on GT7 with a TM128 wheel, and getting far too carried away with it. 😁
