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

You are really addicted to GT4 when:
When you read all 128 pages of this thread,
When you wonder if Porshe, Ferrari and Lamborghini actually exist
When you go here and read this thread because you need a break from GT4.
 
When your copy of GT4 breaks, you hold a funeral for it, complete with a burial and a priest.
 
You know you're really addicted to GT4 when you see a really nice Porsche and think "Wow what a nice RUF"

That's funny :lol: But Porsche cars truly look like Ruf's as it's a car tuning manufacturer of Porsche ;)
 
...when you watch Castrol, Michelin, Quakerstate, Bridgestone, Hankook, etc. commercials, then say "Since when were there brands for these things?!"
 
I still have yet to :grumpy: I just don't understand why when all the other slipstream battles were so easy, PD had to go and make that one damn near impossible!

To catch the lead car, you need to drive in a continuous cycle of drafting past the bunch of AI cars, then taking allowing them to catch up with you, being careful to take the exact same racing line as them in order for them to slipstream your vehicle and make an overtake. After this, pass them again and rinse and repeat. Remember, never let your car stray over 172 mph while slipstreaming, or they won't be able to catch you again. Once you are within 2 seconds of the lead vehicle, attempt to draft them and take the win. :gtpflag:
Hope this helps. :)
 
When your NA Miata interior looks like this in real life:

and you realise that the game's version looks like this:

so you get this fitted:

to make it look much more similar to the game! :guilty: :D
 
When you wonder if Porshe, Ferrari and Lamborghini actually exist

When you convince yourself Porsche, Ferrari and Lamborghini must not be so important if they weren't in GT4.

When the 30 odd tracks just arent enough anymore.

When your GF has a love\hate relationship with GT, loves to play, hates when you play.

When you name your DFP\GT "The Dominator".

When you realize you're a greedy bastard because you have 800 cars and still have a wishlist of 300 or so.
 
When you pay for your carwash you tell the staff to go easy on the spinning because you got loose items in the car

- When your greatest accomplishment is winning the 24 hours of LeMans in full A-Spec mode in one sitting with CLK GTR for 200 A-Spec points and win by 1.56 seconds by pure pitting strategy.
Seriously though, have you done that? That's insane!

Nice one :P
When you overhear someone asking for a coffee at a café, you shout "The Suzuki dealer's a few 'kays down the road."

Picked that one up from a Garfield comic where he composed a list of things that indicate when you are aging. Lots of good humor in Garfield.

That is just fantastic Smallhorses. If you get any cooler you could well be a solution to global warming.

Mine: was hitch hiking last year and picked up by a bloke in an R33 (very rare in Australia). He was turning off the highway so I went 70km in the wrong direction just to sit in the car. When I got out I advised him not to get a VCD fitted.

One of the best one's yet!

Mine: When I replaced my tv, I realized that my favorite television shows actually don't have racing dials at the bottom. I though they did......
 
When you get used to the humming noise that the fan(s?) on your playstaion makes, especially when you go to sleep while doing a 24h event (or any enduro). Then when you finish, your room seems wierdly quiet, again especially when you go to bed.
 
when you have read every post in this thread and can't come up with one that isn't already there
Maybe this one isn't
when you are just starting to learn how to drive in real life and want to push the pedal to the metal, i had my drivers evaluation and i was told to slow down about 10 times. and i was told to get as close to the curb as possible when turning right, but not to hit the accelerator when meeting the curb, i wanted to hit it every time.
when you are up at 2AM reading and posting on this thread paused on a 4 hour nurburgring endurance(redoing with a mercedes slr) (overkill but its good practice for mission 34 which i still can't beat, closest i came was 3rd)
 
When you point out the part of the racetrack where you work to your family via GT4 photo mode. I work at Infineon (Sears Point) Raceway, and you can see the spot where I work when you enter turn 4.
 
When you wondered what the leather brand used by the GT4 driver. (Guilty :guilty:; reply to me for those who know what the GT4 driver wears)
 
When you start to think RUFs are the real deal, and Porsche is just a cheap, de-tuned knockoff that PD didn't deem important enough to put in the game.

Not guilty, thank God. :sly:
 
haha very good ones, i don't know if this one is in it but
When you walk, you make engine noises pertaining to acceleration and deceleration (shifting included) and walk like your racing amateurs (slow walkers)

Guilty for this one :sly:
