I have played Gran Turismo 2, and am completely hooked. The only problem is that I was borrowing a friend's Playstation, and now I can't play it anymore. So I can't decide whether or not I should go out and buy a system and the game just so I can play it. In my opinion, it is the best game I have ever played. What do you guys and girl think? Help me!

 

Actually, if anyone has another suggestion of a good racing game, please share it!

I've already played A-spec, and call me crazy, but I didn't like it as much as 2. I loved the concept of buying a USED car and souping it up. With A-spec you can't do that. The only thing you can do with the 18 grand they give you is buy an f'ing VW Beetle!

hum...my boyfriends brother has Grand Turismo 3 for PS2. Its pretty fun. His brother is reaaaly good and he has won a lot of the cars. I'll have to look at it again.

 

The thing about a Ps2 is...you can play PS one games and PS2 games....soo that's pretty tight...and it can play dvds and such. I think it even makes the PS one games look smoother. If I were you I'd invest in the PS2. They have gone down a lot in price and the games selection is HUGE especially since it includes Ps1 and ps2.

 

But...if your tight for money...go with the ps one. There are a lot of great games for it and I bet if you looked in the paper you could find a reaaaaallly cheap one. Or ebay watever! I still have my Ps 1 and love it....planning on a 2 after money allows :o)

But its much more profitable to make games for the PS2. Its the market leader by a long shot.

Ah the XBOX, soooo much better than the ps2...the 8 gig hard drive does it for me (don't have to buy all those silly little memory cards). Loading so is so much faster! I love my xbox and one of the reasons that so few games are out now is that Sony tied up a lot of developers in contracts so they couldn't do anything for the xbox until they finished with their ps2 games.

I was a fool... I bought a gamecube. The only games I like for it are super monkeyball and Super Smash Brothers melee. So far, 'Cube doesn't have any racing games to compare to GT2/3.

 

My parents severely restrict what I can and can't play, and for how long. I don't even know if they will let me buy a PS One.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, Time Splitters 2, Conflict: Desert Storm, Star Fox Adventures, Metroid Prime, Phantasy Star Online 1 & 2, the Legend of Zelda, Evolution Worlds, and many others. :D did i go a little crazy?

I appreciate the help, Jatt, but none of those really interest me except for Time Splitters, and mum and dad won't let me get any first person shooters. Needless to say, I can't wait until college. The only games I really like are the quick and easy kind, with lots of replay value. Like SSB Melee and Monkeyball. I can't really play adventure games like Zelda because I have a time limit on how long I can play. I can never get to a good stopping point before I am ordered off.

Super Smash Brothers Melee is easily the most enjoyable multiplayer console experience I've had in a long time. I am swift death with Roy and Marth.

 

For a Metroid fan like me, getting a GC is justified if it means finally getting another installment of Samus.

 

I've been on a kick recently, playing NBA Street for the GC. Strangely addictive, especially when you get MJ, Tracy McGrady and Kobe Bryant on the same team.

i played the Starwars game for it the x wing one...I think. Pretty fun! The GC is pretty smooth I really liked that a lot. But see a long time ago I bought an N64 and quickly realised that was the wrong investment! I already had a PS 1 and loved those games more than the 64. I think I own 2 games for N64 and a whole lot of PS games. The one thing I don't like about PS2 is the loading time. God it takes forever. I played the Simpsons one the other day....MY GOD. You could slip into a coma waiting. Everytime you started over or ran out of time...it had to load again. Ridiculous! So the x box doesn't have so much wait time?? that would be awesome. I hate waiting to play games. I want it NOW. Down with lag time!
