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

...you call your route from home to college "College (normal)" and your route from college to home "College (Reverse)"

this is the best so far, i can't stop laughing every time i read this, LOL

Ever told someone 'gotta take a pitstop' when you need to go to the bathroom?

This is one of the best threads I've seen in a while.

me and my friend say that sometimes, especially on school field trips..,

...and have subscribed to the thread in the process. Guilty on both counts.

.......You almost forget to start work because you're pondering how to iron out that last niggling little issue in your GT4 car's handling. (I did that once, started a few mins later than I should have)

Back for more posts…

…When you’ve gotten all your friends from school hooked on this tread.

…When you find web proxies just so you can access GTPlanet in school to post in this tread. (Guilty of looking at thread, but was caught before I could post…)

…When you have made your sibling walk out of the game room because you wouldn’t stop talking about the new car you won/bought, how wickedly AWESOME it is tuned, and how easily it beats LM cars (even though it’s only a street model). (Guilty…)

…When you try to find a way to incorporate GT4 into a speech you have to do for English.

...When you nearly break your PS2 while tilting it in attempts to get it to read your GT4 disk. (Guilty…) [Yea, my GT4 disk won’t read anymore… Gonna buy a new one soon..]

…When you have considered taking screen shots of your entire garage, but have never gotten around to it because you’ve lost all your DS2s because you haven’t used them in ages due to over-usage of your DFP. (Guilty on a few counts…)

I shall be back for more soon (More or less when another post comes in.. or I think of more to add..).

Guilty... more than once Although it was a presentation rather than a speech.

i've done that, but i incorporated mine on a formal theme write-up, not a speech..,

 

[BMW[M3]GTR-1]

WOOHOO!!! Although this is a slightly off topic post...

... I'm accessing GTP from school!!! Hehe. Can you tell I'm addicted??

 

[TheBook]

...When you go to look back in your real car, and your thumb automatically goes to where the "down" button would be on your DFP.

Guilty.

 

[CAMikaze]

...When you nearly break your PS2 while tilting it in attempts to get it to read your GT4 disk. (Guilty…) [Yea, my GT4 disk won’t read anymore… Gonna buy a new one soon..]

Guilty as well. And add to it using the air can and DVD Maintenance Kit (i.e. a DVD disc that has micorfiber brushes on it to sweep the dust that has accumilated on the lens) on a weekly basis.

Right now, I hope I can get a working 60GB PS3. If that doesn't happen, I can always get the Slimline PS2.

...if you read the (true) sentence above, then this one, understand it all completely, then realize how fantastically self-referential it all really is.

[There is so much happening in this post, I'm very proud of it. I think my English teacher is brainwashing me. (Imagery, NO! Symbolism, Never! Themes!? DIE!)]

Lol. Yea, I've tried the whole... er. air-can thing... didn't go to well.. Unfortunately (and this pisses me off the most), I actually got GT4 running without freezing up, and the my parents decided to put a new fuse sector in the power box for the basement workshop, and had to shut off the friggin' upstairs fuses ('cuz they were on the bottom), therefore cutting the power to my PS2... Haven't been able to get GT4 runnin' since... :sob: I haven't tried doing the lens-cleaning disks yet... but whatever... I'll just play Starcraft untill then... Anyone have it?? PM me if you do.

Anyways, getting back on topic...

You know you are playing too much GT4 when...

...You can't stop complaining to your parents about how your GT4 disk wont't run.

...How you had it running, and they cut the power to the room with the PS2 in it, and now GT4 won't work anymore, and all you do is mope around the house because you can't play it.

...You can't focus on your ISAT tests because you can't stop thinking about GT4, and the hawt cars you have in your garage.

More to come soon, lots of time to think of more during the ISATs..

-When every time you drive you choose a difficulty level

-When you programmed A-spec points into your real car

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

...you have a dream involving a white R33, and the moment you wake up, tune a white R33 on GT4. (*whistles innocently*)

...you actually feel angry when your favourite car loses 1bhp when it passes that 800mile mark. (My NSX-R!!! )

...you think of every race your real life car could enter in GT4.

...after calling your home/college route "College (normal)" and "College (reverse)", you use lampposts or road signs as sector markers.

...you paid £100 for a new PS2, just because GT4 wouldnt work on your old on. (Its the governments money anyway EMA FTW!)

...instead of going into an interview and saying what qualifications you have, you say how many Golds you have in GT4.

...your having a serious relationship with your B-Spec driver.

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

I like the angry at power loss one and the telling an interviewer how many golds you have

 

[BMW[M3]GTR-1]

Aiight, here's one for you guys..

...When your friend compares his VERY crappy pen to a '98 Miata, and you ask, "Been playin' GT4 lately huh??"

 

[Kurei]

You know your playing too much GT4 when....

You actually get tired of drawing the GT symbol over and over on some paper waiting for class to get out (guilty)

When you used something learned from GT4 to solve a real life problem (guilty )

 

[BLITZ_69]

When you wish NFS Carbon had as many cars as GT4 does.

LOL you actually get a stopwatch and time your drives everyday.., if you get a slower time, you mumble "damn"

...your having a serious relationship with your B-Spec driver.

say wha.....????

 

[VTiRoj]

LOL you actually get a stopwatch and time your drives everyday.., if you get a slower time, you mumble "damn"

Also traffic can seriously mess up your time trials too.

say wha.....????

The less you know, the better.

When you find yourself humming the GT Auto tune while you're at the mechanics.

 

[Skygrasper550]

that's a good one, LOL

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

-you always shift up at the redline when driving a REAL car

-when you are single status, you start to think of having the back seats removed (Weight Reduction Stage 1) because you car feels heavy..,

-after playing GT4, you saw the road car you last used on the streets then you start to think "hmmmm..,"

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

Aww too bad, I don't have back seats. I love my Ute too much to redline it all the time, but still funny

-When you actually buy a Playstation 3 to play GT5. (you'd have to be REALLY obsessed to do that one XD )

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

I did that

-When you actually buy a Playstation 3 to play GT5. (you'd have to be REALLY obsessed to do that one XD )

If you don't plan on buying a PS3 to play GT5, but rather, you already bought one to play GT5, you probably don't play GT4 enough.

 

[VTiRoj]

I hum GT1's Honda tune whenever I'm at Blackpool Honda


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

...you come off MSN, turn off the PC, get ready for bed, take a shower, etc. THEN finish the last race of the Polyphony Digital Cup.

 

[jakesmith]

you know youve been playing gt4 too long when...


...you have completed the game 100 percent.

this is you after you have completed it...

this is when you find out youve completed it 99.99 percent
