Gran Turismo 3 (PS2) Reviews

Gran Turismo essentially set the bar as far as racing games go - back on the PlayStation, it pioneered not only immense gameplay, but photorealistic visuals, and saw through the introduction of the analogue and rumble features in the PlayStation controller. With the massive critical acclaim of the first two games, there was a lot of hype and ...  Read the complete review

Gran Turismo 3 is a great game that can be played on play station 2, but I prefer these games on play station 3. Still a good game though. This game is the first game in the series that was released on play station 2, so it was completely different than that others. The whole thing had changed. The graphic had become a lot better, and you could ...  Read the complete review

The original Gran Turismo, released back in 1998 on the PSOne, was a remarkable piece of software. Not only dwarfing Namco’s brilliant Ridge Racer franchise, it dragged the racing genre back to the very forefront of console gaming. With its now-trademark glossy visuals, incredible depth and design, it became an instant classic. Gran ...  Read the complete review

Maybe few of us gamers realised it at the time, but December 1997 was to mark a pivotal moment in the evolution of gaming as we knew it. An unknown game developer named Kazunori Yamauchi set about creating a different kind of racing game, a game where the cars looked and performed as they would in the real world and the scenery at the various race ...  Read the complete review

I was first considering buying this game when I got my PS2 but when I played it at my friend's house it just looked poor. But I deserve a slap cross the hands for thinking that. My brother nagged and nagged me to get it so I ended up getting it for his birthday and being the stubborn little individual I was I refused to play it, until he ...  Read the complete review

GT3 is very much the best racing game on any console to date. I did think about leaving my review at that, but there are quite a few more levels on which to appreciate this game. For a start, its undoubtedly the only time ill ever get to drive a TVR speed 12, Dodge viper, Aston Martin vanquish, and all the other cars us guys wet our pants over. ...  Read the complete review

Gran Turismo 3, in my opinion, is the greatest game any console has ever seen. Ultra-realistic graphics, great sound quality and an almost eternal life-span make this an absolutely fantastic racing game. The Cars: Every car in GT3 is modelled to the finest detail, producing absolutely astonishing graphics. The cars are from all major ...  Read the complete review

This game is the third installment in the now legendary Gran Turismo series, which is still the only one that allows you maximum control over the purchase, modification and racing of hundreds of licenced car models. Not much has changed in terms of the interface layout, with options from the main screen being to under go a licence test, ...  Read the complete review

A near perfect illusion, Gran Turismo 3 A-spec blends the want of fantasy with the need of reality to create a simulation so pleasing to the senses that the morning drive to work will drop ten levels deeper into drudgery. This is the methadone of auto racing. A virtual experience that fluidly meets to fulfill the wants of any driver at ...  Read the complete review

I actually bought an original Playstation on the strength of the first Gran Turismo. My cousin had it - I was round at his place one day and noticed he had a Playstation. "Do you have Gran Turismo?" I said. "Oh yeah - want a go?". He couldn't get me off the thing for another six hours. Here was a game that took real cars, ...  Read the complete review

This was the first game i purchased when i got my ps2 because of the sheer depth and gameply possibilitys. The races on this game are simply amazing. The computer has a high Ai and will cut you off at corners and bump you to make you loose control. However the game has a far greater depth than this because you can either pick between an ...  Read the complete review

This- in my opinion- was one of the best Playstation 2 games ever made. It has everything you could want from a computer game: it has a high fun factor, is highly addictive and there are are a wide range of ways to play the game. On a more specific level, this features some of the best cars ever made, such as Porsche and TVR`s and many ...  Read the complete review

WICKED - Advantages: graphics, realistic, 100 hours game play - Disadvantages: 100 hours game play, hard, fewer cars then previous games

Graphics will blow you away! wish they had more cars though. - Advantages: Graphics excellent, Realistic, great cars - Disadvantages: Can be difficult, not as many cars as in previous games

When it comes to driving in that thing called real-life it may shock you to find out that I can't do it, well I can, but I still haven't gone as far as getting that piece of paper that you need to do it legally, however that doesn't stop me hurtling around hairpin bends at speeds of over 200 kmph and putting a level 4 Turbo in my ...  Read the complete review
