Hello, and welcome Gran Turismo fans.

I'd like to dedicate this thread to all the GT fans of N4G. Here we can discuss anything and everything that is GT. First, my reason for this thread.

I'm looking to meet fans of the series here at N4G. Maybe this could lead to having regular weekly sessions of racing when the game is released. If anyone is interested in something like this let me know.

I'm a huge fan of the GT series. That doesn't mean I'm the hot sh!t in playing the game, just that I really enjoy playing it with friends, and other fans.

Gran Turismo N4G Club so far.......

******OK, so I've decided to do things differently so as to not play favorites or leave anyone out. In the coming weeks I'd like to come up with a schedule of some sort for when we will meet, and what type of contests we will have and what not. I know that none of this makes any sence now, but give it time. If anyone has any suggestions, or ideas, please feel free to type your words.

V.I.P. List
1- Bill Gates
2- Maddens Raiders
3- Hentai
4- Willeonabe
5- Syko_360
6- SmokeyMcBear
7- DarkSniper
8- Proxy
9- Hellbringer
10- mayberry
11- sonarus
12- pharmd
13- Fluffy2Duffy
14- childoftime
15- siberiantiger28
16- IntelligentAj
17- Aaron_V667
18- predator
19- Hentai
20- LivingGhost
21- spandexxking
22- Ace-jury
22- resistance100
23- kingofps3

Again, the v.i.p. list can change at any moment depending on the level of excitement of the next poster wanting to make it on the list. I'm looking for people who will step on kitty's head just to get this game early..

Big fan, eh?

This is completely off-topic, but you know where I can get the GT OST?
A song from the original has had me going nuts trying to figure out what it was and who it's by.
Sadly, I've been unable to locate the OST myself.
I can't even find my own CD to rip it and find the audio files =(!

/rape-of-topic

Sounds like a good idea. Myself?....I lost patience for GT titles.
MC and NFS took me away fro good old fashioned real-sim. racing.

Ya I'll be in for sure. While there is no doubt about Graphic superiority, Gameplay will be stacked against Forza for sure though....Regardless this is a day one purchase for me.

I'm just glad it has "Last-Gen rumble"....Oh wait I still need to go buy a controller that rumbles. As rumble wasn't considered necessary on a DVD player.

Just stop it Smokey, lol

I'll post this again for those that maybe didn't read the starting post. This is a thread to discuss anything about the GT Series for fans of the series who are looking to meet other fans/fanatics here at N4G. It is not a thread to compare GT to other games, and have a boner fight.

To each his own, and Gran Turismo is mines.

@GoLeafsGo.....This is the best thing I could find. The list of songs is on the left hand side.

Also, I try not to play the Prologue demo at all, but the other day I opened it up and played it. Here's my question. Are the locked rides unlockable in the demo?

Ya you unlock them by beating the lap time set for the specific car. After you unlock all cars you also unlock Drift mode.

Sweet, than maybe I will play it more often. I've been avoiding it because I don't want it leaving me wanting for more.

man I loved gt...but only played the first one and the third one...it really taught me about cars...I played the 3rd one a lot until i unlocked 3-4 licesenses...it was a really good driving game and I spent like 80+ hours on it...remeber if you change oil and wash the car just after you buy it you get extra bhp...but the game got lost and my ps2 ****ed up and my memory card corrupted so I didnt get another one...was waiting for the psp one though...

Well better not play at all. I think it was designed just for that. Hell even another track would have quenched the thirst a little. I need to get back into the GT mindset though because the last one I really was into was GT3. By the time GT4 came out I had switched to playing my Modded Original Xbox and never even tried it. I was sick at GT3 though. So I give it a few weeks before I am in top form. Considering it will be one of my few PS3 games it is going to get a sick amount of playtime too. At least until the MGS Online Beta.

**** after getting all excited by what you said, I now realize (after playing the demo) that you were referring to the original demo, and not the Japanese Prologue demo

So my question still stand, for anyone who may know the answer.

I think Cowgirl already said she was in, and also Will(something). I can't remember his full name.

Will(something) (that would be me) will definitely be in the GT house come April 17.

I'm down for any races.

Maybe we can start a clan? Wonder if they would ever have any ladders for this game. You could have team races where it's 3 vs 3 and you calculate score based of the order everyone finishes in.
