Cars in SegaGT 2002

**nemesYs** · 09-07-2002

Alright I just thought that it would be interesting to see where everyone is at in the game.. Yesterday I played for like 6 hours.. the most I have played a game in a long time... This game is just that damn good...

Anyways on the topic at hand.. the Following are my cars.. Toyota Celica 1600GT, Crap... I forget the name... that Bug lookalike car with the checkered roof top... and my good ol' Cosmo Sport

I use my Cosmo sport the most and I have upgraded this thing from being an average racer to a beast on the road!!

From 126hp.. I made this car 261hp, The torque is around 209.8 ... I got the sports tires, the racing muffler.. Hell I have upgraded almost everything except for the weight of the car.. I don't know if I trust that.. For some reason I think it will make my car worse.. Either way.. What do the rest of you guys have?

By the way ... I think I'll buy myself a new car today!!

Is the game really that good? I was gonna get it when i heard it was coming out, but then there way a review that said there were only 10 tracks and that made it sound really repetative. Can you help me out here? I would like toget a really good racing game, but I'm not sure that this is gonna be the one.

thanx

Alright here's what you need to know.. the graphics not compare to Rallisport... but I really don't mind to much because I personally like the car models and the lighting effects are fantastic... Sure there aren't a huge amount of tracks but each track that I have raced on so far is great.. except for the oval one.. cuz those are never really fun..

... But anyway.. the tracks in my opinion are very nicely designed... The amount of cars is fantastic and each time you get a new car the driving on the tracks will be different and you will have to adjust...

Unlike PGR or Rallisport.... I CANNOT put this game down... with PGR i was playing with a friend which is always more fun then by yourself yet... to me the fun of that game doesn't even compare to this one... Rallisport is yet another great game but the one thing I didn't like about it is that is mostly made up of timed races.. I like to race against cars so thats why... I would stop playing rallisport way before I would stop playing segaGT ... this game is damn addictive.. you always say to yourself.. ok one more race... I'll upgrade one more thing... only one more car to buy.. ... the hours pass by and then you've realized you have played from 7pm to 3am.... ... Yes.. lol.... that is what happened to me last night...

Right on, I know what you mean. I'll probobly pick it up then.

thanx

GEEZ!!! My cars suck to hell then...

**fausenbaug** · 09-07-2002

i just read that it is only 1 player capable. Is this true?

**killerclint** · 09-07-2002

all i have now is a tunned Z28 Camero,,i have the b licence,,and i'am getting smoked by the other cars,,i need a better car that can handle turns,,the z28 is to wide and is no good to me anymore,,i only have like $3000 to spend!,,,,i still love this game!!

Test Drive only has 4 tracks.

But, they are seperated into multiple parts and are not to mention really big, so who cares about the number of tracks, its the gameplay that counts.

**fausenbaug** · 09-07-2002

Somthing I heard though is that is takes so long to earn up all the money to get you "dream" car. So once you get enough money, you don't care because you sick of racing those same tracks over and over...

**P-Rock** · 09-07-2002

Wow, this game sounds really good. I'm trying to save up for Xbox Live, UC, Splinter Cell, and some others, but I'm starting to get very temped to buy this game.

Is this game going to be the Grand Turismo of the Xbox?

**nemesYs** · 09-07-2002

..... To your first question it can support 2 players.. split screen racing.. I haven't done that yet so don't ask me how that is..

Now your second point about it taking so long to get a dream ... thats not necessarily true.. look at comic book guy... he has how many cars now and the game hasn't even been out yet... plus everyone has a different dream car.. your first car that you buy can be yoru dream car... hell the second car that I got which is the Cosmo sport is like my dream car right now.. I've suped it up so much that I can't supe it up much more!! lol... So I wouldn't worry to much about that... Once you get going and learn the game you'll be buying cars left and right.... I would have a lot more cars right now but I have put around... hmmm... almost 50,000 into my Cosmo now.. heh.. damn i love that little bugger!

By the way if your really worried that it may get boring for you.. just give it a rent... then you can judge for yourself. Or just look at previous threads on these boards... many people judged the game, saying it was going to be sooo bad.. now those same people are the ones that spend 6 hours a day playing.

Hope I've helped ya some!

does this game have an ferraris, porsches, or lamborghinis?

**nemesYs** · 09-07-2002

Forgot to mention this.... Quit worrying about the amount of tracks... this game is not about tracks and if you are a huge car enthusiast then you have nothing to worry about.

I really like the track designs... they are challenging and fairly narrow which is good in my opinion because you can't just pass someone easily.. you gotta wait for the right moment....

Now for the last time.. this game is about gameplay... awesome/addictive gameplay IMHO... Ask anyone who owns the game and they will tell you the same thing...

Now for a question to the people to have the game... do you guys get all excited when your rev up your engine right before a race... lol... my Cosmo sounds sooooooo ******* good and powerful... and yet it is a way weaker car then many others... i can't wait to drive some of the big boys.

**nemesYs** · 09-07-2002

does this game have an ferraris, porsches, or lamborghinis?

Um... I haven't seen those car companies in the car shop so, I'm not too sure... .. They may be special cars that you win later on.. but that is only a guess.. right now I haven't seen any, no.

I love this game, right now I have a fully suped up NSX and Ford GT Concept car. the concept car kicks so much ass, the thing is like fcking glue on the tracks and stops on a dime! (not to mention it does a 9.3 something on the quarter mile!)

There may only be 8-12 tracks, but you don't race the same way every time. Some of the courses are quite long, with many optional segments. I don't know how to explain it, other than sometimes there is a barricade up, that alters your route, you use other portions of the track. So some tracks may have up to 3 different layouts. Like at Daytona, they have an infield road course portion, and the banked oval. The Superbikes run both portions of the track....it's kinda like that.

**Comic Book Guy** · 09-07-2002

It didn't take me long AT ALL to get the GT Concept. In fact, it was the third car that I bought. The Lancer was my second, and a Peugot 206 was my very first little baby. Right now I have over $400,000 from winning races and selling the cars I win and don't care to have.

I don't mind that there are only 11 tracks. Some of them are still quite challenging.

No Ferraris, Porsches or Lamborghinis.

KillerClint- the Camaro z28 blows, sell it now!

Has anyone drivin the "zero"? How is it? I sold mine because it looked like a piece of crap.
