Gran Turismo 3 Review (complete)
2001.06.25-rev_game-ps2-j-gran_turismo_3_a-spec-cover.jpg

Genre
Racing. Published by Sony.
Developer:Polyphony Digital

The Objective
This series has always been about the passion of racing in a realistic sense. This is a really different

Gameplay
When GT3 was first shown off in late 1999, many speculated that it seemed like a pretty version of GT2. This is not true as this is a totally different game than any of GT game before it. The game was totally reramped with better menus and very easy interface. The arcade mode is really re-done and looks lush and lavish. For those who crave a faster experience in the game try using the fast S class cars. In this mode you can unlock tracks and cars and do time attack. In the realistic simulation mode used Cars are out the window, and now new cars are only avaliable. You start out with 18,000 credits in simulation mode and you must buy a car in your price range and then you begin racing. At first the game seems discouraging as the races at first are not easy at all, as you'll have to try hard to keep in first.

Graphics
The graphics are awesome as they share beauty and realism at the same time. They have great detail and the backgrounds are great and lush. The sense of speed is great and the overall look of the game is simply outstanding.

Replay Value
The game is fun to play a second time yet it could become some what of a bore. Try different things to keep it interesting
Audio

This sound track is pretty good consitiiong of Snoop Dog, Apollo 440, and Junkie XL. The music tracks are great and they sound nice when driving. The sound of the cars are excellent and it is really good to hear the engines roar to life.

Final Word
The GT series has always been great to me and has really been phenomenal. GT3 is the best in the series and the best racing game ever. it's great and deserves to be held in high regard. Each game in the series I have collected and I'm craving for more. An excellent series with great standards, with excellent visuals and great game play.

In the spirt of the great Next Generation Magazine i give the 5 out of 5 stars.

The only reason I didn't do a GT3 review is fear of being flamed for listing a few bad points and not giving it a perfect 100.
