You know you're playing GT4 too much when...

...When you decide not to slow down whilst driving as you can bounce of the wall and carry on without crashing.

...When you have a camera installed on your car to give you the 3rd person chase view as in gt4.

...When you go to a dealership and ask if you can adjust your 6th gear ratio to 1.984 on the car your about to buy.

...When you come back and complain that the spring rate needs lowering by 0.5.

...When you try to pause the game...half way down the M54.
 
When you make up a Gran Turismo song sung to the Beach Boys "Kokomo" (beware of spelling, I'm lazy)
*clears throat*

Seattle, Tahiti,
Why don't you come with me
Tsukuba, the Nordshlief,
baby, that's the high life,
Suzuka, and Fuji,
Hey let's get some sushi
Seatle
In Gran Turismo,
theres a place called Monaco
that's where you wanna go,
to race the silly AI.
Cars racing side by side,
You take the turns with a powerslide,
We'll be pushing it hard, watching waves break in the azure tide,
down in Monaco,

Seatle, Tahiti
why don't you come with me to
Tsukuba, the Norshlief,
baby that's the high life in
Suzuka, and Fuji,
hey, let's get some sushi, then to Monaco,
we'll get there fast and never take it slow,
that's where we wanna go,
we'll race at Monaco.

The sound, the feel, our hands gripping the wheel
Looking at the sign, we'll perfect our racing line,
It feels just like I can fly
the next corner is very blind,

Once we start the race,
We try to reach first place,
That careful way that you drive,
We can expect a drastic change in pace,
when we reach Monaco.

Seatle, Tahiti
why don't you come with me to
Tsukuba, the Norshlief,
baby that's the high life in
Suzuka, and Fuji,
hey, let's get some sushi, then to Monaco,
we'll get there fast and never take it slow,
that's where we wanna go,
we'll race at Monaco.

We're never done, we're having lot's of fun

*solos*

Everybody knows,
they love a race at Monaco,
now if you wanna go to win the races and all,
Go down to Monaco,

My contributions:

- When you read 4 pages of this thread and realise that you've been nodding in agreement most of the way

- When you find you have nothing to talk about with friends that you haven't seen for 9 months, because they don't play GT4, and playing GT4 is all that you've done.

- When you see a real horse and think that with only 1hp it's going to take forever to lap The Ring on that thing.

man, almost made me piss my pants..:lol:

I had the song stuck in my head and just started making up different lyrics. Took like 5 (edit: can't lie, it was more like 10, or so...) minutes. Keep in mind I was listening to the song to match it well, but I still came up with the lyrics. :)
 
Did another song to AC/DC's "TNT"

*cough*

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
See me drive out of the pit lane,
in my super-powered machine,
out to beat all I have met,
if you know what I mean.
Pit wall to the left of me,
and pit crew to the right,
aint got no wing,
aint got no stripes
Don't you love that sight.
Cuz I love GT,
I'll get in your face,
I love GT,
and I'll win the race,
I love GT,
I never pout,
I love GT,
watch me peel ouuuuuuuut!
I'm speedy, quick, and mighty slick,
I'm no sluggish man,
Racing champion number 1,
understand?
So rest your foot on the gas,
rest your foot on the brake,
rest your foot on the clutch,
you've got money at stake,
The man is back in town,
down you spin me 'round.
Cuz I love GT,
I'l get in your face,
I love GT,
and I'll win the race,
I love GT,
I never pout,
I love GT,
Watch me peel ouuuuuuuut!

*short solos*

I love GT,
Go, go, go,
I love GT,
Go, go, go,
I love GT,
Go, go, go,
I love GT,
go, go, go,
I love GT,
I'll get (Go) in your (go) face, (go)
I love GT,
and (Go) I'll win (go) the race, (go)
I love GT,
(GO) I never (go) pout, (go)
I love GT,
watch me peel ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut!

*Reving engine, gradually increaing volume and tempo - More and more rumbly and irregular*

*Peels out loudly, and slides a bit while exiting the pits and rejoining the race*

I'm thinking of starting a thread for anyone to try this. Any song ideas, or anyone who thinks a thread for this is a good idea?
 
With Sierra replying within this quote :dunce:

KEEP THIS THREAD ALIVE!!! :) WeeHee

You know you play GT4 too much when...

You have dreams of playing GT4. VERY Guilty. :dopey: Guilty :scared:

You GOLDED ALL of your liscense tests. Guilty :sly:

You have sex and all you can think about is Nurburgring. Guilty. :indiff: I wish

You have finished GT4 more than once. Not guilty........Yet

You curse out your bus driver for not carving the apex properly. GUILTY. :) Guilty

You think that your car can drive over 20 feet of snow without getting stuck. Guilty, don't forget giant floods!

You come home from school and your brother asks "What game are you going to play?" and you say "The usual." Guilty, but he thinks it's Metal Gear...

You struggle to get up to use the bathroom. Guilty. :sick: VERY guilty, I'm pretty desperate now actually, so the same applies or GTP :crazy:

I'm done for now. :)
@MINI, I'm gonna write something to Green Day - Basket Case sometime :sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly:
 
You know you're playing GT4 too much when you think that damaging your car in real life is just some story your parents made up to scare you.

Yes I think it is an excellent opportunity to let all the GT addicts here on the forum show their musical imagination!:cool:
 
"You struggle to get up to use the bathroom. Guilty. VERY guilty, I'm pretty desperate now actually, so the same applies or GTP "

sadly i have a big problem with this :P
and i wrote
Pink Floyd: Money
song for mini's thread.
 
MiniCooper - gotta + rep ya for your lyrical work. That's just classic. Two clangers in a row. Too bad I can only +rep ya once...
 
I know I am playing gt4 too much when...

I installed xlink kai to drift with others....
I drift in races and still beat grippers that are actually decently fast...
I read about a car in a magazine and think...I can recreate that with that model... i.e mazda demio into a mazdaspeed3 lookalike...
I read this thread and agreed with most people...
My gf makes fun of me for making one mistake on a track..
You look for glitches...I actually found one at Trial mountain...ok it was my gf...
Think of more reasons why I know I play too much gt4...

I watch Bmi and think...That would be fun to replicate on xlink!
 
my first post here I guess
I know I have been playing way too much

my original GT4 release has given up in the PS2
so I was forced to buy another one "platinum" version this time
but happy I can play again :)
 
You know you play too much GT4 when...

You hear your PS2 say to you..."PLAY GT4, PLAY GT4, PLAY GT4!!!!!..."

You keep checking GTPLANET.NET every 5 minutes.

You keep saying that you will only play GT4 for an hour or two, but you play for 10 hours +.
 
Here I go again. :) You know you play GT4 too much when:

You think you can drive over 180MPH in New York City without hitting a pothole.

You think that you can get gas for free.

You think that the "Invisible Walls" will save you from falling off of the grand canyon.

You try to install your DFP into your car. Guilty. :dopey:

You wish that you can live in an imaginary Gran Turismo world. GUILTY. :indiff:

You imitate a burnout with your feet and make car sounds. Guilty. :grumpy:

You try to make a Nurburgring mini course using small toy train tracks to resemble its bumpiness and drive your little R/C car over it. VERY GUILTY. :):sly:

Gran Turismo is what made you a car freak. VERY GUILTY. :)

You get a GT symbol as a tattoo. Not guilty yet... :grumpy:

You play GT4 asleep, and let the controller vibrate to wake you up. Very, Very Guilty. :sick:

You think you can magically change the front downforce, by simply buying a rear wing.

You bought a helmet just like the one that the driver in GT4 is wearing. Guilty again. :dunce:

I Love This Thread... :sly:
 
You know you're playing GT4 too much when everybody at the office gets busted for accessing porn sites while you get busted for accessing non-work related forums... (GTPLANET!!!!) ummm... guilty....:scared:
 
How to make your own avatar? I tried everything and I don't know how to make one. I made a picture where the longest side is 110 pixels and still I don't know where you go to post it as an avatar. Please help. :scared:
 
You know you've been playing GT4 too much when...


When GT4 influenced your career choice

The only thing you do in math class is draw modified versions of high speed ring and grand vally

When you see a bad driver on the road and say "Looks like someones been playing forza" as an insult
 
You know you've been playing GT4 too much when...

You run a red light because all of the lights at the Seattle circuit are red and you haven't stopped for those

After doing the above activity, a cop appears in your mirrors and you drive around fratically trying to find the pit entrace

After they finally bumperlock you, you scream "PLEASE DON'T DQ ME! I CAN'T FIND THE PIT ENTRANCE! WHERE IS IT?!?"

You sin as much as possible because Church taught you that if you do, you will go to hell and you find the Green Hell more appealing than heaven...
