hahahahaha...
I don't have any fighting ones.. I try and get into it but I dunno I just don't care for them..
In a game I look for how well it feels and how it feels to real world cars..
lol I'm disapointed in GT4 you can't no longer really do fast donuts in the Subaru anymore or any AWD car...
Where in GT3 and GT2 & GT1 you could.. A little nag I guess you can say.
However the feel of GT4 is better. Now when the PS3 comes out and Sony goes with a "REAL" video card chip "Nvidia" then maybe we can get some real smoke on the track, instead of those stupid puff clouds we should call smoke.
Also another thing is, Leave tire marks on the ground!
I could care less if my car has damage modeling or not.

remember Starcraft? well earlier this week there was a korean national died after logging 50 hr straight with little nap breaks and bathroom breaks. he died of heart failure.
A 28-year-old South Korean man collapsed and died of exhaustion after playing a computer game almost non-stop for 50 hours.
The man, identified only by his family name Lee, sat down to play the online battle simulation game Starcraft at an internet cafe in the southern city of Taegu last Wednesday morning and stayed there for the next three days, stopping only for brief naps or toilet breaks.
South Korean newspapers reported that Lee had recently been fired from his job because he spent too much time playing computer games. When he failed to return home by Friday, however, his mother asked his former colleagues to find him.
When they reached the cafe, Lee told his friends that he would finish the game and go home. He died a few minutes later.
"We presume the cause of death was heart failure stemming from exhaustion," a Taegu provincial police official said.
Computer games are enormously popular in South Korea and professional gamers can earn big money through sponsorships and television stations devoted to broadcasting matches.
Geez.....that sucks. Dieing from playing too much game
I'm not a starcraft player....but i hear the game can take hours to finish
Hope people learn from this guy...you do need Rest, Sleep, Eat, and do take more bathroom breaks.
that is crazy, i can see a few hours here and there, but that many?!?!
yeah, don't want to get hooked on any video games, they are entertainment, but when it becomes addicting, then it is a waste of time after a long while. Besides starcraft online can be so damn tough, there are others out there that are so very good at the game.

Ooh, Skies was fun, but I never took the time to beat the game
Shenmue is a masterpiece, sadly it will never be completed
I was not so happy with the ending of Shenmue 2 - open ending that told you basically: too bad for you, there will be no sequel either.
You should try to beat it. My dreamcast is still up and running so I should break S.O.A. out and play it once again . Shenmue 2 I'm sooooooo still pissed at the creators. I should stand outside there homes and be like . _________________

@Subaru: Yea still trying to get the RX-7.....going to get the Supra before that though. My brother is way ahead of me in the game
@Space Godzilla: That sucks that your disc got wrecked
How is Midnight Club 3??? I was thinking of trying out the Midnight club serie for PS2, but I decided not to because of games like Grand Turismo and N4SU was fun, especially the drifting. I was able drift in that game Initial D status Can't say I'm good at drifting in games until I can drift like crazy in Grand Turismo _________________

I might need to buy the VC because the rears are not spinning fast enough to bring the car around, I hope they fixxed this issue becuse in GT3 i could not tell each setting from the other.

Midnight Club 3 Dub Edition is a great street racer...and so is NFSU2. If you already have NFSU2 I would say just stick with it cause there really isn't much of a difference between the two if you ask me besides te motorcycles in MC3...but thats all I found different and I can't seem to find the drag racing in MC3 probably cause I have the psp version no that didn't make sense.
You want my honest opinion just stick to NFSU2 for now, there really isn't much of a need to spend money on another street racer...don't get me wrong though midnight club 3 is a great street racer.......wow I'm such a video game nerd
