You know you're playing GT4 too much when...

[GT40 MKII]

there is a Xsara rally car it is in the new cars menu of citroen

 

[Zykloner]

...Having three memory cards FULL of some of your best replays!

Or:

...Having to buy another controller, because the X and Square buttons are worn out.

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

You lost your job to play GT4

 

[A Fatal Goodbye]

...Hah, Zykloner...

Yea GT4 killllllz my X button. It's ridiculous. It makes it a lot less sensitive...forces you to hold it down harder.

 

[Zykloner]

Yeah, its not really good for your hand either, and its true for me, I'm onto my second controller because the X button stopped working!

 

[BLITZ_69]

You know you play to much when you can smoke your dad in a race, even though he has been to racing school, and you havent. (Yeah, he isnt used to he dfp, but still...C'mon)

 

[dylansan]

When the challenge is not to pass the missions, but pass them all cleanly.
When you use the fuzzy dice on your mirror in your real car as a g-force indicator.
When you actually got the hang of Rally Racing in GT4.
When you golded all the licenses and finished all the driving missions before even getting into a car.
When you are an active member of the WRS.
When you see a screenshot of the pause screen and think, "Has that always been there?"
When you still don't even know what Forza is.
When you posted in the "I Dream of GT " thread.
When you thought this thread was for the everyday life of GTP members.
When you think doing all these things is perfectly normal.
When you've came up with a food product that tastes like racing.
When you traded paint so many times you can see paint missing in your photomode shots.
When you notice the mileage on one of your cars is about 2 million, and you don't think you drive it often enough.
When you fainted after someone told what a "speed limit" was.
When you found the hidden reward for having the highest possible A-Spec Points.
When half of these came from your own GT4 experience (I didn't feel like putting "guilty" for the others, but I'm guilty of this)

Or you have a rainbow car!

 

[EA11R]

When(and I have):

You notice when wlking around school that your backpack gives you more traction, but makes you more oversteery while walking.

I think I have a problem...

 

[dylansan]

Wouldn't the added weight cause understeer? Besides, how do you differentiate between FF and FR on something with no front and rear traction surfaces

 

[Supercar_Killer]

when you paint the HUD onto the windscreen of your car...

 

[BLITZ_69]

when you paint the HUD onto the windscreen of your car...

LOL

When you buy multiple colors of the same car, just because they look good.

 

[Picc84]

You my friend... Have problems...

Oh so true lol, similarly when you wake up in morning and see it's raining you put on your off-road shoes, ie. you have different shoes with different treads for different circumstances just like tyres (now that's me)

 

[klumzypinoy]

when you try to tune your vehicle settings with your DVD navigation screen

 

[EA11R]

No, I can still pivot (thus, the turning radius is 0), but even more aggressively (I walk quickly through crowds, to make up for the fact that I will not run when there is space.) due to the increased weight (think 'downforce'). The backpack behind me acts as a lever when I am turning because its mass wants to continue forward. As I turn, ahead of the backpack, it pushes on forward and rotates me.

It's all very intense.

Either way, though, it's one of those rectangular manpurse layouts, and the constant 'spanking' motion of the backpack negates any gains in eliteness.

 

[CirclesCenter]

When on the straight to the finish you put your thumb through the x button trying to catch 1st place.

(Guilty)

 

[SportWagon]

Wouldn't the added weight [of a backpack] cause understeer?

Slight initial understeer, but mid-corner oversteer, I think.

 

[GT40 MKII]

may make you a bit drifty lol

 

[jinjinweiwei]

you know you're playing GT4 too much when you buy a real car you wonder how to turn off the traction control and over steer/ under steer control.

 

[Orion]

When you fart, and wonder why fire doesn't come out of your exhaust system.

 

[BLITZ_69]

When you resurrect this thread

 

[Orion]

When you resurrect this thread

When you post in the resurrecting thread and make a joke about resurrecting a thread.

When you have complaints of a sasquatch roaring in your house, when it's just you screaming in frustration, because you can't gold a certain liscense test. Guilty.

 

[Eeveelution]

...your driving to work in your Chevy Corvette and end up doing laps around Laguna Seca.

...Halfway through the Nurburgring 24h endro... You wonder if the Takata Dome NSX was really better than racing with your Motul Pitwork...

 

[Skid Mark 33]

... When your sitting at the traffic lights having your windscreen washed, and you wind down your window, stick you head out and shout, ''will you hurry up with this pitstop, I have a race to win''!

 

[GT40 MKII]

when you drive a real ford lightning then compare it to one on gt4 and then realise.... no comparison at all to the real thing

 

[mustangGT90210]

When you sit in your history class during a war movie wondering how to shave another 8 seconds off a lap time...guilty for about 30 minutes...WWII movie too!

 

[TheBook]

Guilty with modifiers. Wasn't a Lightning, it was a Chrysler PT Cruiser.

...When you try drifting with the shoes that have the little wheels on the heel. (Can't remember what they're called.)

 

[AOS-]

when you join this forum OOOH, just kidding, take it easy you GTP enhuiasts, i was once a GTP enhuiast myslef. now a bronze member

Edit: 15 minutes later: i became a silver... LoL

..when you try drifting with Heelys'.

You technically can't, becasue you can't tilt your shoes a lot thus you can't throw yourself into a corner at high speed, but you can fake it by driving normally with the front foot and let the rear fling out as it your drifting hahaha

...when you try to impress your date with: "I'm in FGT!"

I did. A moment I'd rather like to forget.
