Gran turismo 1 & 2 for the ps1 were just stunning, just imagine the ps2 version its going to be fantastic. The new I link is great because up to 8 players could play. I cant wait to buy this game and just see the great cars & graphics. I just cant wait!

Gran Turismo is an icon

Not only have I played Gran Turismo 3 (which you can do at Sony's Metreon and other places that rock), I have a press-copy of the game. I'm impressed, but it's not as earth-shaking as I hoped it would be. I'm still optimistic that Sony will get it right before releasing it--I'd much rather spend another couple of months anticipating a great game than get a rush-to-production copy that isn't as good as it could have been.

First great car racing game!

Even though it's not out yet, I can tell you this will be the best racing game ever. Over a 100 cars(A lot less then before) but the Polygonic shapes of the cars are 10, thats right, 10 times better then Gran Turismo 2 and 15 times better then the first one. When it rains, it becomes hard to control the car.(MOST OF THE INFORMATION GATHERED IS FROM EXTENDED PLAY ON TECHTV)Each car's engine can be heard exactly like it is in real life. This is said to become the biggest hit on the PSX2 in the year 2001. Guaranteed.

A gaming masterpiece that will blow you away

I, along with millions of other fanatical GT fans have been methodically awaiting the best racing game ever made. It is clear that this game was going to be a winner right from the start. Unfortunately the game has been delayed countless times leaving GT fans everywhere in dismay but the end product will no doubt blow everyone away because this game has had ample time to be refined and fine tuned to be the absolute best it can be. In the end fans will be rewarded with perhaps the most realistic gaming experience they've ever had.

The graphics are the most obvious improvement with visual so realistic it is hard to tell the difference between watching a live broadcast of a race on TV!But that is not all, the 160+ cars that will be in the final game are EXACT replicas of the real thing. There is just about every possible customization feature included in GT3, tons of race modes including the nearly seperate game all on it's own - rally mode. In addition the physics and AI has been futher advanced to provide the most realistic driving experience short of being in a real hi-end race car.

I am eagerly awaiting to do a final review of GT3 when it is finally released in North America but I will be expecting an absolute perfect game considering how many delays this game has gone through. It will half to live up to the hype and I think it will do just that.

I have the demo version of this game, and let me tell you. This game is going to ROCK. The best racing game ever! Better than the first two, better than Ridge Racer, or any other racing game.

two things that annoy me a bit are the way the cars bounce off everthing(if you tapped another cars bumper in real life you woudn't bounce back) and the tunnel like play-bounce off the walls,nothing is affected by the cars. Other than that it puts to shame every other game

I own it

I own the japanese version, and it's the best and the most beautiful game ever. New tracks are fantastic, cars are absolutely gorgeous and Mazda RX-8 rocks. I just need the forcefeedback wheel, now.

Graphics aren't what they looked like

remember seeing those life-like screens of GT3? then you will be disappointed. The graphics look nice, but the textures don't load sometimes, leaving no reflection where they were shown, and making those god-awful jaggies. the graphics are blocky and blurry. you know why. the 50Mhz Vu0. that loads textures, physics, and lighting. It is too slow to support those feature with all the cars, so they simpally don't load sometimes. o well, maybe they can fix it on PS3....
