Why does it only say LAN Play. No Live Play?

Ill end up buying both if they do release a online version later.

They are actually not releasing ANY version of GT4 with online play. NONE. Online GT will not be a reality until GT5 on PS3 :rant: But GT4 has enough content to keep everyone content until then...btw check out these drift vids from GT4!

I thought they were realeasing a Sony Online Version in the summer.

I watched a interview with the creater. And he said it was NOT something they were going to offer at all for GT4. Oh well. I guess in 4 more years we'll be able to play GT5 online.

^^^ Based upon previous tentative release dats of this product, you may have wasted your money... I have cursed the guy working in 4 different EB Games stores for trying to get me to pre-pay for the game, even though my intention IS to own the game at 10am the VERY day it is released

Exactly the point I make, I am in target twice weekly anyway, I won't miss the official release of this game either way...

Finally. Time to pre order.

Actually this IS THE FIRST release date given by Sony themselves. Thats right, the game has actually NEVER been pushed back. So with that being said, the fact that they had a press release witha specific day is a VERY VERY good sign :bigok: ;)

And why would I have wasted my money. The games gonna come out anyway, and I was planning on getting the wheel, so it's not nearly a waste :2f2f:

So who has dope steering wheel rigs? How do you guys mount your wheels and pedals?

I think me and my roommate are going to get some wood this weekend and start work on one.

Chris, I will own you in GT3! :p My friend and I used to do all day GT3 marathon playing where we were cutting fractions of seconds off lap times and found the best lines for a lot of the tracks... mostly the carry-overs from GT2.

The license tests suck.. the only way to get better is to race someone who has similar but slightly better skill and identical cars and then you can follow them and see how they take the line and memorize the track. In a 1 on 1 anything can happen and people mess up under pressure so it's best to practice under those conditions.

GT4 should be cool though. I hope they added back the memory card battles!
