I just discovered today that I have recently beaten my number of days in GT1 with my number of days in GT3...

I had 448 in GT1 and i now have 456 in GT3.

Having played it today I can certifiably confirm that GT1 is completely undrivable once you're used to GT3 and GT:C. Still...the music's miles better and its fun for nostalgia's sake with its little R33 Skylines and boxy NSXs.

Anyone who has GT1 and hasn't played it in a while should give it a go, it's certainly a laugh!

:)
 
I played GT1 ages ago, then I bought GT3 in a bundle with the PS2. I finished it 100%, golded most of the licenses (42-3-3) then I bought GT1 to compare, and GT2 which I had never played at.
It's true that it's hard to keep playing on them for a long time : you wonder how you ever played on such bad graphical quality games, especially with the bugs on GT2 (I play them on my PS2).
And for the music, the one on GT:C is $h!t to me, but Feeder on GT3 is OK.
Anyway, I wonder whether I'll finish again GT1 and GT2...
 
Yeah, once you go back to GT1 and GT2 after playing GT3 you wonder how you could play with such crappy-looking graphics compared to PS2. They are definitely a lot different than GT3.
 
I can remember seeing GT1 and GT2 and thinking graphics don't need to be much better this, now I have trouble playing either game (well I can't play GT2 cos my disk is screwed) but the graphics look so shyte I have no idea how I ever liked them.
 
Amazing how times changes isn't it? I remember the first time I saw anything running in true 3D, it was Crash Bandicoot, first game I ever bought with my PS1. I was immediately struck how realistic it was because it was multiscrolling, you no longer just ran sideways along the screen.

The Formula 1 series on PS1 was the reason we got the machine, and it was so seemingly beautiful to watch, all 100 polygons (if even that) that made up a car. Now anything under a few thousand looks bad, we have transparency on windows and headlight covers.

How far things have come. Now you look at the new range of Nvidia and ATI video cards, see the incredible things they support and can do, and wonder just where we'll be in 2, 5, 10 years time. Will screens even exist anymore?
 
Crash Bandicoot is great.

Crash on the PS2 sucks donkey's danglies.
