Another Gran Turismo 4 Rant

Okay. I give up. I admit it.

I suck at GT4. Sure I've gotten both A&B licenses, but they were ALL BRONZE PRIZES. I can't follow racing lines and I brake too early. I am a casual driver.

I have no talent for hardcore GT4 racing. I cannot win and I have no patience to take 2nd place. I want to win all the time, since I'm up against computers.

My driving style is too NFSU2 and not really suited to GT4. I don't carve up corners, I slide past them. That was my fault in GT2, and up to now I still fall prey to it. I try to counter it but old habits die hard. And now I'm pissed.

Add to the fact that I can't buy the Ford GT because I can't win any more races since I keep getting overtaken. And so I come to the realization that I may want to re-do my game.

That's right. Start off from scratch. Still get the 100,000 credits. But I won't buy a Skyline this time. Oh no.

I'll start with my favorite first car. The car I always bought first in GT3. A Mazda Miata.

I've got a plan now. I buy and set-up the Miata, race it in all possible races, including the Japanese 90s Cars Races and get the Nismo 400R. Once I do that I save enough cash and fix the Nismo up.

No more Ford GT. Now its all about winning as many races as possible. Maybe, just maybe, if I do this I'll eventually get the Ford GT.

But those are the least of my problems, since my GT4 is defective. Sunday Cup races won't load. The most basic races. No load. No way. No game. Maybe that's why I'm frustrated. Maybe because I can't start from simple races to the more complex ones I get too frustrated racing in races where cars are extremely fast already.

Or maybe I need more practice. More intensity.

Or maybe I just need to find another game. God of War. Definitely. Ultimate Spiderman. Yes. NBA Live 2006. Without a doubt.

Out.
