The Real "The Real Driving Simulator"Playing Gran Turismo 3 after this makes it feel like a glorified Need For Speed
GT is a glorified NFS. the driving simulator tagline refers to the career mode and buying/selling cars, it's still an arcadey physics model
>>12257919Good point
>>12257915Why did you feel the need to act like NFS is bad?
>>12257915Yes but I didn't realize until well after. By todays standards Gran Turismo is a simcade but F355 would be comparable to Live for Speed, Grand Prix Legends or a modern game like Asseto Corsa.They really didn't promote the game well for the time, I just assumed it was a ripoff, 1 car vs something like 50.>>12257919But back then even real sims like Indycar racing were a bit weird with physics.
Simulators have always been boring shit for friendless retards.Even now with these "games" being so prominent, the genre is dead and nobody cares.
>>12257915It's shit compared to Hard Drivin', the only jap arcade that comes close is Battle Gear 4
>>12259965>Simulators have always been boring shit for friendless retards.I've spent a lot of evenings just doing laps for fun online with two of my IRL friends in Assetto CorsaDriving is fun
>>12257915I thought I could play it until I saw this guy. Whole new world. Also hilarious. Brake HAARD. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTnwrQJZdqw
>>12259965Kek what a bitter post.
Game feels impossible to play properly on controller.
>>12259965>Simulators have always been boring shit for friendless retards. This nigga can't drive and must seethe lol
>>12261134Nah, you get used to it if you keep at it. The main issue is that it feels too sensitive at first if you're coming from other racers, but over time you'll get used to the high sensitivity and in fact, you'll find other racing games sluggish to play afterwards. It's an excellent game to improve your finer thumb motion skill.Also I recommend the DC version over PS2 for more responsive controls (analog triggers vs pressure sensitive buttons, and no analog deadzone vs massive deadzone in the PS2 version).
>>12261207I was referring to the DC version, for the record. Never played it on PS2.
i love the stupid ass soundtrack, game is pretty fun too, especially with the dc wheel>>12261134really? i never had any issues with controller, either with a normal DC one or using a PS3 controller on an emulator
>>12257919You have no idea how revolutionary GT physics were at the time. It was the first racing game that used four axis for calculating the car physics. It was at the time every game used a single one.
>>12257915Since when were Need For Speed games bad in the 90s-2000?
>>12257915>>12261134check out the arcade version.>dat soundhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rk9eZsJFKio
>>12257915If you consider Grand turismo a "real" racer then you're probably brown. They're fun but nothing more.
>>12261139Oh I canYa mom's car is a nice ride and so is she
>>12261483I COULD TAKE ON THE REAL SPA FRANCORCHAMPS, WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU TO TELL ME OTHERWISE? I'VE RACED IN MANY GAMES.
>>12259965arcade racers are for people who don't like cars. unironically get filtered
355 Challenge is only a simulator in the sense that Gran Turismo is called one. It does have a little bit more of the nuance of the car it features but it ultimately also does not fully represent a real racing series and its physics aren't nearly as good as even GT3. Fucking better than Sega GT though.Yes rFactor is retro
>>12263015>arcade racers are for people who don't like carsWell good, because I like RACING. Going fast and trying to come in 1st.>muh V8>muh 477 BHP>my six-speed with upgraded clutch>muh gear ratios>muh suspension hardness>muh downforce tweaking>muh rear differential
>>12259990AC is the peak of racing games, driving the Wangan in VR is one of the best experiences to have behind the wheel. I waited years to play something just like that. GT4, Burnout 3, and NFS underground 2 are my favorite retro racing games but the only I still play is Burnout.
>>12261346They weren't.For Simtards comparing any racing game to an arcade racer though is shorthand for "It's completely and utter unplayable trash".
>>12263418>driving the Wangan in VR is one of the best experiences to haveI just wish there was a game behind. Like I enjoy sim physics but I feel like these people often forget to include proper game-like features in these games.
