Description

Released in 2004 by Polyphony Digital, “Gran Turismo 4″ pushed the PlayStation 2 to its limits. In fact, this PS2 game is one of only four games capable of outputting in 1080i resolution. That bump in resolution makes every car in this game come alive. From the rubber of the cars to the shine of the paint, these vehicles are perfect replicas of the real thing. In fact, each vehicle in the game sports over 5,000 polygons. The graphics engine also doubles as a more powerful physics engine as well. Barriers now slow your car down immensely while drafting becomes a legitimate tactic. Not only is this engine capable of displaying many cars on the screen, but it also features smooth gameplay that limits slowdown and screen flicker.”Gran Turismo 4” supports widescreen gaming in addition to a 1080i resolution. If you have additional PlayStation 2 systems and multiple screens, you can create a multiscreen setup. With three screens on all sides of you, “Gran Turismo 4” can replicate what it’s like to be inside of a real car. This game also offers support for steering wheels, including those from GT and Logitech. You’ll naturally want to take photos of how good your vehicles look, and you can do just that in Photo Mode. You can then transfer these photos to a USB drive to store and share on your PC.The goal of “Gran Turismo 4” is a simple one: win races and collect vehicles. With over 700 vehicles in the title, it’s likely that your favorite car is present. These cars span an array of manufacturers, including Mitsubishi, Mazda, and Nissan. This Gran Turismo entry was the first to feature pickup trucks as part of its roster of vehicles. Nestled among the sports cars are also rally cars, SUVs, and F1 vehicles. As a simulation race game, each car feels realistic.As you progress and win more races in this PS2 title, you’ll unlock new and faster vehicles. You can test your skills with the License Tests and receive ratings on how well you drive. You’ll try to beat the clock in the Time Attack mode. The Race game mode has you racing against other drivers to win and cross the finish line first. New to this title are the Driving Missions, which task you with the challenge of being able to win races using a particular technique. These missions are an excellent way to master the game’s new features, such as drafting.This Gran Turismo entry features over 50 tracks on which to compete. You’ll race on real-world tracks, including the Suzuka Circuit, the Tsukuba Circuit, the Twin Ring Motegi, and the Circuit de la Sarthe. You’ll also race on tracks created specifically for this title based on real-world locations. Some of these tracks include the Grand Canyon, the Vegas Strip, and the streets of New York.
