Who is still going to play gt4 when gt5 comes along

[RouWa]

I stopped playing GT4 when I reached 100%. I would kill for GT5.

I don't want to offend you, but if you're used to Gran Turismo 4, you've become accustomed to a physics engine that greatly underemphasizes the oversteer abilities of cars. When a car is near the limit in real life, it actually doesn't take that much work to bring the tail end out (of course this depends on the car in question and the way its suspension is tuned).

I will admit that I have yet to play GT5 Prologue myself, but from what I've seen and heard, particularly from GTPlanet members I consider trustworthy, it's taken nothing but steps in the right direction from GT4.

I'm not offended, but I've driven all sorts of cars of all different drivetrains. And when a little no-HP FF car is doing a tail whip around a turn, it's way off. If anything there should be severe understeer with FF and 4WD cars, not oversteer...

The cars I've operated in the game are of a variety of drivetrains and are all stock with stock settings...

Given this, the physics in GT4 are way more accurate (that I've experienced) than GTHD...

I would imagine that with the drifting bandwagon, at least some of the constructive criticism toward the game is in response to the ease of drifting... I mean come on, I can drift a completely stock Suzuki Cappuccino in this game... are you kidding?

You don't need much horsepower to get lift-off oversteer in a FWD car. Just a relatively light weight and decently-sorted suspension.

They can and do get both. Understeer is easier to run into, of course, particularly with FWD cars (some AWD cars are much more oversteer-biased), but that doesn't mean they can't also oversteer.

GTHD is a demo of a demo (of a demo...?). I also had a chance to play it only recently (in an EBGames), and also found it to be an utter and complete waste of time.

I was referring to GT5rologue in the above post. If you get a chance to try that one, I would recommend giving it a shot.

It makes sense for oversteer to be achievable. Sustained power oversteer, not so much.

I agree with just about everyone else here, untill the PS3 drops in price I will still keep GT4 in the PS2 tray.

I won't be playin' it...

As soon as I get a job, that first pay check is going towards my 80G PS3...

I can't wait...

I'm 23 % into a new game so I wont be playing anything until I'm finished, by that time PS3 should have a more attractive price.
