Gran Turismo 3 is probably not the world's best car simulator, but it
is a great example. Many games have been designed like Gran Turismo 3,
like NASCAR Racing 4, Grand Prix, Mobil 1 Rally, etc. Even though they
were successful, Gran Turismo 3 has started a new era of racing games.
Gran Turismo 3, however, has the essence of an all new kind of
vehicleracing. It is true that Gran Turismo 3 has finally completed the
goal of making a whole new understandable and believable racing
experience.
Gran Turismo 3 yet is nothing different from it's two ancestors, GT1
and GT2. It has the same racing experience. But most of the courses are
different. Most of the game has to do with real-world cars and real-world
tracks. Still, some of the things in the game are just fictional, but
still could exist in the world. Some of the tracks are in Japan, Seattle,
and even California! It is almost certain that one-fourth of the cars in
GT2 and perhapsGT1 are gone. Gran Turismo 3 still happens to focus on the
truly good cars, and even some great older car classics. Gran Turismo 3
comes with 5 driving levels: beginner, amateur, pro, rally and endurance.
Like in games like NASCAR etc., Gran Turismo 3 has two viewing modes:
Simulation and Arcade modes. Once you complete an entire event by
successfully placing first in each of that event's races, you'll be
awarded with a free car, which you can either sell for more money or
upgrade for additional performance.
Even though there aren't many races, the car upgrading will impress
you. Some cars thatupgrade are the Toyota Supra, and most Nissan cars. The
controls in Gran Turismo 3 aresimple, there is braking, shifting,
accelerating, and a special emergency brake. Gran Turismo 3 though has
real world effects in it, like crowd cheering, power slides and over
steering.
Gran Turismo 3 will take months to complete, giving you something cool
to do. It hasfeatures that people who hate driving games will like. But if
you don't add this to yourlist of PS2 games, it would be a big mistake.
