I never played GT1, I've heard that people liked it, but like I said never played it.

I've played GT3, but I just didn't care for it, there was something about it that made me meh.

GT2, was one of my first racing games, Need for Speed UD2, was the first, and Nascar 2003 was my second. Loved all of them, and GT2, got me addicted to Gran Turismo. I really wished I could find my copy, but oh well. I'll buy one.
 
I played GT4 through most of the licenses...but the menu system had me utterly confused and I never knew which events I was qualified for and what cars I should be using for them. I was never able to actually race the A.I. past the first or second turn. Either they were too fast, or I was too fast. I should go back some night and try it again...just so I can race some of the tracks not in GT5.
 
GT4 and GT5 are obviously bounds better than GT2 in every way, but neither of them (especially GT5) feel as polished as GT2 did. GT2 came out when I was 8 so theres a nostalgia factor for me also.
 
guess I'll have to try and find a copy...of course I'd have to find a working PS1 too.. :P
 
so you can play ps1 games but not ps2 games? i've still got a ps2 but it isnt hooked up.
 
seriously?? Ok then...I'll give that a shot! I'm pretty sure I have GT1 around here somewhere. PS2 emulation was discontinued right before I picked up my PS3 :(

I tried to find one where the chip was hardwired to read the game discs, but couldn't.. My PS2 is hooked up to my old-school standard def 19" tv in the basement..

I'll just be over here enjoying my launch day PS3s hardware based PS2 emulation. :P

Exactly, it will come eventually. As soon as the PS2, stops selling like crazy in smaller foreign countries.
 
Prolly, I'm the Nintendo era. It was a N64/Gameboy Color/Gameboy SP (classic edition, with the paint like a super Nintendo remote) then PS2. Never really played a PSX.
 
What Pyxen and I are saying is that the original PS3s could play PS2 games through hardware emulation, and that's the PS3 that I have.

As long as it doesn't YLOD...
 
PSX was my first system...but I was already mid-teens by the time I got it (and it was a few years old).. never had a nintendo..though I did have a gameboy eventually. I was 'hard done by' as a child.... ;)
 
Luxury.

My first console was an Atari 2600. My first computer was a Commodore 64.

I did eventually have an NES (the 8-bit Nintendo). When I was in college, I bought a refurbished PSX just so I could get GT2. The only other game I have for the PSX is Activision Classics, some of which I still have on the Atari.

Then I moved to MMOs (DAoC, PlanetSide, and Eve) and had kids and skipped the PS2 and the rest of the GT franchise.
 
dont get me wrong..I was playing on the commodore 64 (winter olympics - Hotdog!) too...my first real dedicated console was the PSX.
 
:dopey: I have three GT2 copies: 1 Original, 1 GH version and the Bleemed EMU version (Best GT game ever created) Thank you Dreamcast!
 
Anyone else running some practice laps this morning? I'm putting down some okay times (best is 2:06.2), but just having trouble doing them with consistency.

Fo u have a list of what was on our cars to get them to 385?
I don't get off work until 430. I'll be online by 530 CT so I can give u parts list. I usually only get to my moms where my ps3 is since I don't have WiFi in my apt on Tuesday and Wednesday. I know I did all tnree weight reductions on the talon but didn't know if that put me at 385 as I have a few parts installed that I must've tested last week after races.

Judging from how the race went last night it will be very interesting tonight. I know my talon is better on tires than my fto, but the mrs didn't pit unless they had damage....... Channeling inner Daiki to find excellent brake points!
 
Well, you are SOL because we're running "F". It was mentioned a while back...I guess I didn't put it in the front.
 
I was out testing late into the night last night and I wanted to keep this quiet, but I can do so no longer. So here goes.

Under the cover of night I noticed around turn 4 some shreads of flat cardboard boxes. I became concerned and slowed and what I saw....... There they were, Pyxen and Diabolic, building billy bookcase barricades. I wanted to stop them, but as I drove by they launched a barage of Swedish meatballs and Anna's cookies at me. In an effort to save my talon I retreated.....
