    Literally the best "casual" racing game ever made, good graphics, handling, car and track variety, all of this in a PS2 game.

    visuals worse then GT3, ugly menus, way too many car duplicates, barely 30 race cars that are new to GT, terrible cameras, AI is a joke (apart from speedster trophy), grand valley and midfield were ruined, 24 hour races (JUST WHY PD), 4 tracks were cut from GT3 (WHERE TF IS ROUTE 11), some cars disappeared after GT3 (Its been 22 years, where tf is the GT-One Road Car?), terrible post-game,visuals worse then GT3, ugly menus, way too many car duplicates, barely 30 race cars that are new to GT, terrible cameras, AI is a joke (apart from speedster trophy), grand valley and midfield were ruined, 24 hour races (JUST WHY PD), 4 tracks were cut from GT3 (WHERE TF IS ROUTE 11), some cars disappeared after GT3 (Its been 22 years, where tf is the GT-One Road Car?), terrible post-game, and lastly, reverse tracks are criminally underused
    And thats, every single problem with GT4 imo

    This game is absolutely terrible at being absolutely terrible. This game could not be terrible even if it tried. This game could not be terrible if the PS2 was on its last leg and the game crashed every few minutes. Timeless classic.

    This is the reason why it is worth buying a used Ps2 a masterpiece of its era. However, telemetry is missing In A-spec it helped me with the S-2 test in addition, the driving model in the rally was "better" in GT-3 also the AI is what it is in A-spec I felt I had to drive without error.
    In GT-4 I didn't feel the pressure with the exception of a few races or I knew I wasn't going to get

    In GT-4 I didn't feel the pressure with the exception of a few races or I knew I wasn't going to get anywhere anyway. I do not know whether to regard mission 34 as a disadvantage or an advantage.
    If I could I would give it a 9.5 to distinguish my opinion about GT-4 from my evaluation of A-spec. I will not give a rating of 10 because everything has its pros and cons, but GT-4 is and will be the closest to it .

    I am a very Subjective guy, driven by emotions. If I had to judge by my emotions then GT4 may not be my top racing game. But indeed objectively speaking. It is King.

    absolutely GOATED, GT4 has so much content and has a highly impressive graphics for its time for the console that it runs at. Definitely pushed the capability of the PlayStation2. Highly, HIGHLY recommended to play this game.

    TOO MANY LISENCE TESTS

    Why do I have to spend like 9 years doing boring ass licence tests. I'd rather play Burnout 1

    I bought this game off a dark pawnshop with three men sitting near the entrance they were very aggressive and told us we can't touch anything unless we are buying them. I found Gran Turismo 4 and made me pay ten dollars and another game then me and my dad walked out. Safe to say that GT4 is worth ten dollars and that store is now closed thanks shady sales men who have their windows boarded up. :3

    I don't understand the bad reviews of the game or the fact that it is not a must play. You can consider this as reviwe bombing but I invite you to try the game on PCSX2 if you must. Nothing bad to say and too many good things to say. I'll just say that, if you like simulation racing games this one you must try.

    It's a pretty cool game, and a very fun gameplay experience, it's really cool how good the graphics for it's time and, it still holds up today. With it's 700 cars you can have the most fun ever in a racing video game, and many races to take part in, completing all of them might even require years.

    Gran Turismo four is one of the best games that we seen during the six generation and it’s one of the very few games that it could be able to play at 1080i without any issues and with the beautiful driving physics and the awesome license test, and the ginormous amount of great detail, vehicles in this game should definitely be on the top of Metacritic than it is with crash team racing

    I'm here because of DustinEden. Not to review-bomb, but because he's right. GT4 is a 10. It was always a 10. It's a contender for best racing game of all time. As much of a classic as the top cars in it.

    get pcsx2 (or a ps2 if your into og hardware) and play this now it's a legal requirement. Even if you don't like racing games there is something in this game for literally everyone to enjoy.

  1. Whilst the game can offer a certain joy of ownership for a fraction of the cost, those who are not passionately interested in motoring in general won’t want to put the required effort in.

    Some professional race drivers even use the incredibly life-like tracks in this game to prepare themselves for the real thing.

    Blows by the competition like it was sitting on jack stands, and is the new high-water mark by which all other driving games will be judged.
