Ask Kaz A Question!

[Event]

http://psmonline.com/pulse_reloaded.php

Ummmm, the interview questions will be answered in decemeber, one month after the supposed release. We will have figure most of these qestions out for ourselves by then.... sending him emails about Ferrari and Porsche would be a futile gesture...

 

[Mr P510]

My three;
Will there be rim diameter changes?
Are there more replay options than GT3?
How will fuel be implemented(endurance races only?)

 

[McLaren'sAngel]

Hiya! Meow! (='.'=)

Here are my three questions I would like to ask him:

1. Do you have a gurlfriend?
2. How long do you plan to work at PD?
3. Are you going to release more information at TGS? And I mean like ALOT of information!

 

[Dev_Zero]

10. What car do you drive yourself?

He drives a 350Z

 

[heero 12]

First, greetings Yamauchi-san. Second, how many Mini
Cooper models will be in Gran Turismo 4?

Heero Yuy.

 

[Sven]

1. Since the UK is a big market for the GranTurismo series, is it possible for PD to impliment an option to change from the Euro speedometer readings of 'KPH' to 'MPH' which is what we use here in the UK. its only a minor niggle, but one that makes us Brits feel overlooked.

I don't wanna hear you talk about being overlooked when you over in europe have gotten both GT Concept and GT4 Prologue, while North America has gotten squat.

Speaking of which, here's the question I want asked: Why the bloody hell didn't you give North America any intermediate Gran Turismo games!?!? And don't give me any bull about things potentially not selling well.

 

[MasterGT]

I asked if GT4 will allow transfering files (i.e. replays) and saving Photo Mode bitmaps through the USB port - two necessary, missing features.

Cheers,

MasterGT

Umm, so you still think GT will be released in November, let alone this year ...........

 

[Ford 429 Hemi]

here was mine:

Okay I have a few questions just incase 1 can't be answered.
First is:
Are there car brands in GT4 that you have desired to have in the series that your are now able to have in GT4 that you couldn't get before?

And if that cannot be answered,
What cars do you own and drive and what do you think of American Muscle cars?

 

[Solid Lifters]

Wrong again. The December issue comes out in four to five weeks, since I got the November issue several days ago. That would mean the questions will be answered in mid late October.

Believe me, you're not missing much.

There is about 3 weeks entertainment to be extracted from owning both of these games, even for a hard-core GT fan with any kind of life.

 

[TwinTurboJay]

Yeah.....well, those are three precious weeks we dont have damit !!!!

 

[MasterGT]

Believe me, you're not missing much.

And you obviously missed Sven's point.

We were never given the choice as to whether we would get a native version of either product.

Also, you seem to forget the purpose of Prologue: to give players a look into the future of the game. We were not able to do that natively, either, while the rest of the world can still play it until the final is released, regardless as to how Prologue relates to the final version.

Even the European GT4 car demo versions were better (at least more interesting cars) than the Toyota one, and you have more plentiful versions than over here. Don't get smug when all you have to do is reach out and get a copy.

If PD thinks releasing GT4 final here a little early will make up for their transgressions, then they are sorely mistaken, too. Never ignore/exclude your customers...

Cheers,

MasterGT

 

[TheCracker]

Also, you seem to forget the purpose of Prologue:

...to make PD more money

We were not able to do that natively, either, while the rest of the world can still play it until the final is released, regardless as to how Prologue relates to the final version.

...if you are that desperate, get your PS2 chipped and import it!

Even the European GT4 car demo versions were better (at least more interesting cars)

..what, a BMW 1 series?! - and less than a third of a circuit?!

and you have more plentiful versions than over here. Don't get smug when all you have to do is reach out and get a copy.

its not very easy to get hold of a copy of the BMW demo, even the few to be found on eBay sell for upto £43! - thats $77 - would you pay 77 dollars for 3minutes around the Ring in a crappy 1series?

 

[The Vanishing Boy]

Here's my shot:

1. Can you restore the bonus credits every time you qualify for pole position just like in GT1, because its just a waste if you qualify a run to get pole and you get nothing, that sucks.

2. About the SS R11, I'd like for you to restore the one from GT1 not the over-easy like the one from GT3.

3. Why did you remove some prominent race tracks (like High Speed Ring, Grindelwald, etc.) in GT3?

4. Same as above for cars like Vector, and Venturi?

5. Will you have the used car area on other makes besides Japanese Manufacturers?

...And last but not the least...

6. Can I work with you??

 

[Mr. McShake]

yeah, i didn't like how there were only japanese used cars.

 

[Gabkicks]

Here are the questions i sent in:

Could you please elaborate on how tuning cars will be
more realistic, and how huge horsepower upgrades arent
always the best idea?

And I'd also like to see some side by side comparisons
between a real car and its digitized version.
Something to get Enthusia fanboys to shut their mouths


And also. WE would LOVE to see some vids of the new
drifting mode!!.

GT4 wont just be a game. It will be a way of life!!!!
We'd just like to see information on how GT4 is coming
along.

1) I love the Nordschleife as much as anyone, but less than a 3rd of any circuit is being short changed in anyones book.

2) What the hell is so revolutionary about the pig-ugly 1-Series??? - the Talbot Sunbeam of the 70's was rear-wheel drive - and it had more space for the rear passengers. And how dare you compare the 1-series to the Golf!

I'm a bigger car and motorsport enthusiast than you could ever hope to be - only i don't wear blinkers like you do.




Anyway, my revised question to Kaz after the TGS bombshell:

Q) Dear Mr Kaz, i hope you were wearing a ****** when you ****** us up the **** over the whole GT4 Online debarcle?

 

[Leo_Straight6]

Just wait for a few years, see how the BMW 1 Series sells compared to the new Golf in Europe.

I garuntee you it is the start of a new era

Even the magazine CAR says it is "the most important new small car since the golf in the 1970s"



There hasn't been a RWD small hatch on the market for decades. It is also a premium product, millions will buy it.

Why? Because after a "hot hatch VW", comes the fugly BMW with useless rear wheel drive?

I quote Jeremy Clarksson;
People will buy it because it's a BMW

Nothing more than that. I don't know why BMW has released a hatchback model as it in no way competes with the other hatchbacks on the market.

 

[TheCracker]

People will buy it because it's a BMW

Just like people bought the Z3 just because it is a BMW - even though it was rubbish

Most of the reviews i've read of it say its 'competent' - but no great leaps or bounds ahead of anything else - but then so it should be concidering its the newest and most expensive car in its class.

 

[TwinTurboJay]

You really think that the Z3 was rubish ? Have you actually driven one ?

There's no way that a pricey ugly meemer will sell as good as the golf.
And there was a smal hatch with RWD on sale, it's called the BMW 3-series Compact. But the beemerfans seem to forget it because it did'nt sell ****.
The most people who buy a hatch dont want an car that costs nearly 25000€, they want a practical cheap car with some room to put your legs.
(Sorry for the bad english, i never learnd it )

 

[TheCracker]

You really think that the Z3 was rubish ? Have you actually driven one ?

Yes, i've driven two. The first was a 1.9l, (which was slower to 60 than my old 1.8TDiesel Mondeo) and drove pretty much the same as the 3 Series compact that it is based on (which was ok, but no sportscar by any stretch of the imagination.) The difference between the Compact and the Z3 were that the Z3 was badly put-together and suffered from awful 'scuttle-shake'.

The 2.8 that i drove more recently obviously had better performance, but still handled like crap - even with a sports suspension upgrade.

I'm sure the M-Powered versions were quite fun - but it doesn't hide the fact that the Z3 was a 'sportscar' for posers, people who don't really like cars..... and girls.
