Europe (PAL), and has since been re- issued under Sony's 'Greatest Hits' line. Gran Turismo 4 is one of only four titles for the Play. Station 2 that is capable of 1. Tourist Trophy which was also created by Polyphony Digital, and based heavily on the physics engine of GT4. Originally slated for a 2. GT4 was delayed for over a year and a half by Polyphony Digital, and had its online mode removed (later added in Gran Turismo online test version). Gran Turismo has held the title of being the number one seller and highest production Polyphony Digital has ever seen. The game features over 7. Daimler Motor Carriage, and as far into the future as concepts for 2. ![]() ![]() The game also features 5. Gran Turismo favorites, with some notable real- world additions. Upon its release, GT4 was met with critical acclaim and was a commercial success, becoming one of the highest selling games of 2. The Chinese, Japanese, and South Korean versions of the game were bundled with a 2. A limited edition, Gran Turismo 4 Online test version, was released in Japan in summer 2. A PSP enhanced port entitled Gran Turismo Mobile was originally planned for development, but was later renamed to Gran Turismo, which was released October 1, 2. The follow- up game, Gran Turismo 5, was released in 2. Play. Station 3. Gameplay[edit]Players now accumulate points by winning races in the normal first- person driving mode, called A- Spec mode. Each race event can yield up to a maximum of 2. A- Spec points. Generally, a win using a car with less of an advantage over the AI opponents is worth more points. Points can only be won once, so to win further points from a previously- won event, it must be re- won using a car with less of an advantage over the AI. There are also the 3. Missions which can yield 2. War Of 1812 . Despite this, A- Spec points are experience points, not money.The new B- Spec mode puts players in the place of a racing crew chief: telling the driver how aggressively to drive, when to pass, and mandating pit stops (by monitoring tire wear and fuel level). The speed of the time in the race can be increased up to 3x, allowing for Endurance races to be completed in less time than would take in A- Spec mode. The 3x feature, however, must be turned on after every pit stop because it resets to normal time. The game manual says that the player may speed up B- Spec mode by up to 5x, but this is believed to be a typo. B- Spec points are given out for each race completed in B- Spec mode. This increases the skill level of the AI driver in the categories of vehicle skill, course skill, and battle skill. Players can thereby use B- Spec mode in harder races as the game progresses, but this mode cannot be used on wet, dirt and snow courses. Another new addition to the game is the Driving Missions, which are similar in experience to the license tests, but award successful completion with 2. A- Spec points and 1. Each mission takes place with a given car on a given track or section of track, and a given set of opponents. There are 4 sets of missions: The Pass, in which the driver must overtake an opponent within a certain distance; 3 Lap Battle, in which the driver must pass 5 opponents over the course of 3 laps; Slipstream Battle, in which the driver must overtake identical opponents by way of drafting; and 1 Lap Magic, in which the driver starts with a significant time penalty against much slower opponents and must overtake them all in the space of a single lap. Completing each set of missions earns the player a prize car. There are a total of 5 prize cars available to be won, they are the De. Lorean DMC- 1. 2, Jay Leno Tank Car, Pagani Zonda Race Car, Toyota 7, and the Nissan R8. C. A new Photo Mode is included in the game, which allows the player to control a virtual camera, taking pictures of their cars on the track or at specific locations, including the Grand Canyon. This game is able to produce a selection of screenshots with variable compression rate (Normal/Fine/Super. Fine) and size (up to 1. USB device. Compared with Gran Turismo 3: A- Spec, graphics are greatly improved (despite running on the same Play. Station 2 hardware). The physics are also greatly improved, with the major upgrade that cars now experience body movement, such as pitching (forwards and backwards rolling) under braking. Barriers have considerably more friction to slow down the cars in GT4 (in an attempt to stop the use of "wall riding"), but there is minimal friction between cars, so the advantage obtained by running into the side of another car (instead of braking) is still present. Each of the Driving Missions and Special Conditions events give a 5- second penalty for hitting the walls or opponents' cars in this way, where the car's speed is restricted to 5. Hardware compatibility[edit]GT4 supports Dolby Digital surround, 4. NTSC only) and widescreen modes, but 1. Despite the lack of online gameplay, GT4 does support use of the Play. Station 2 Network Adapter, which can be used to communicate with additional PS2s to create a multi- screen setup. In addition, the Network Adapter can be used to play games on a local subnet for up to six players, though player customized cars cannot be used in a LAN game. Support for the Logitech. Driving Force Pro and GT Force steering wheels is continued from Gran Turismo 3: A- Spec. Other "PC" steering wheels previously (and unofficially) supported in GT3 were explicitly disabled for GT4. New support is given for USB storage and print devices used in Photo Mode. Vehicles[edit]GT4 continues in its predecessors' footsteps by offering an extremely large list of cars; the PAL version, for example, features 7. There are differences in the car lists between the different GT4 regional versions, and some cars have different names, e. JDMToyota Vitz is known as the Toyota Yaris in places such as Europe and Puerto Rico and the second generation Mazda Demio is known as the Mazda 2 in the same places (PAL version only). A non- Japanese example is the Opel Speedster which is more commonly known as the Vauxhall VX2. United Kingdom. The Nissan Z- car is known as the Nissan Fairlady Z in the NTSC- J version. As was the case with its predecessors, several well- known sports car manufacturers such as Porsche, Ferrari, and Lamborghini do not appear in the game, though there is evidence to suggest that the latter two were intended to appear in GT4 but due to licensing issues, while the former had an exclusive license with Electronic Arts, were held back until the Portable release of Gran Turismo in 2. With regards to Porsche, RUF, a company that produces cars based on Porsche chassis, but classed as a manufacturer in its own right, appeared in Gran Turismo 2 and Gran Turismo 3: A- Spec fulfilling the role that Porsche would serve, and reprised this role for GT4. Some of the cars in the game are multiple variations on a single base model; there are 2. Subaru Imprezas and Legacies, 2. Mitsubishi Lancer/Lancer Evolutions, and 4. Nissan Skylines, including the Nissan GT- R Concept. One vehicle, another Skyline, is the pace car from the "Guide Lap" licence tests and is also a prize car.
