    This game and a ps2 is the cure for kids with psychological cancer from playing mobile games full of gambling mechanics and microtransactions. Here they grind for a currency that means something about their dedication and personal development, and does not exist to manipulate them into stealing their parents credit cards. Yes, I'm old and nostalgic, but that makes Gran Turismo 4 no less good.

    One of the best graphics based on the hardware it was released. This game is just perfect in almost all aspects.

    Это игра великая и заслуживает занять 1 место в рейтинге от игроков. Я в нее лично играл на пс2 и это великолепная игра и продолжение именитой серии. Столько контента, гонок, машин, лицензий и испытаний. Великая часть как ни как, заслуживает должного внимания. GT4TOP!!!Это игра великая и заслуживает занять 1 место в рейтинге от игроков.

    It has no competition till this day. And if you have the chance of emulate it in pcsx2 with better resolution and mods that are coming in this year 2023(new textures and hq engine sounds) it will improve a lot!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ---THIS IS MY OPINION, IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT I HAVE TO SAY, THEN, DON'T BOTHER---

    Overrated, that's all i got to say.

    Graphics: 8/10

    The graphics look gorgeous considering its a game from 2005, beatiful models and tracks considering its a PS2. However, the lack of a cockpit camera its really a minus, and doesn't help that the game boasts 1080i when it reality its just a upscaling. Argh.

    Story/Career Mode 2/10

    The game boasts a lot of cars... So?. The game is extremely tedious, and repeating events over and over isn't fun, its just tedious. When you do get to the good stuff, it still feels rather unearned, given you are forced to grind your way through the game. It doesn't help (again) that you have to start with some ***** coupe that is so slow even my mum could drive faster. Another thing that takes away point is that until you own the car you can't drive the car which is a joke.

    Gameplay 6/10

    A lot of fun, but its still pretty flawed. The game contains 0 collision detection which is a joke for a simulation game. The game contains awful engine noises, that while something minor, gets grating after a while. The game is also contains the 24 Hours of Le Mans, which, let me talk to Polyphony Digital, who is going to bother with such a task?!. Regardless, the physics are great for a PS2 game and the racing is still up there. Another thing is that feels a bit pad out at times, with multiple Daihatsus (yay... i guess?).

    OVERALL: A really fun game when you get fast cars. Otherwise, one giant borefest and a dissapointment.

    After Burnout 3, this is one of the best Ps2 games. It has many cars to play and a lot of race tracks. Definetly worth the 5$ that it costs nowadays!!

    a lot cars many tracks and this is probably ps2 game with best graphics.
    Campain mode is good, cars tuning- great

    This game is perfect because then a wise Kazunori Yamauchi decided against forcing his fans and players to buy MTX.

    This game is the best because it's got great cars like the Daihatsu Copen, both generations of the Daihatsu Midget, the Toyota Yaris, Lancer Evo V, Suzuki Escudo, and the mighty Autobianchi

    Man, if only this game could be made on actual next -generation hardware instead of 4 year old hardware that was outdated when it came out, it might be ok. Too bad Sony pays off everyone so that games that could be great can't be seen on good hardware. GT3 looked just like GT2, pop- up, graininess and all, and GT4 will look the same way. Don't be fooled by the screenshots. TheMan, if only this game could be made on actual next -generation hardware instead of 4 year old hardware that was outdated when it came out, it might be ok.

Don't be fooled by the screenshots. The XBOX couldn't do that and as we all know it is about 3 or 4 times as powerful as the PS2. Find a different reason to back a company than because of its out of date name. Forza will kill this game because people that love cars will actually be able to see what the cars look like today, not what they looked like in '98 when the PS2, oops I mean PS1 came out. Sorry, I get the graphics engines mixed up when I see them. LOSERS!… Expand

    Complete disapointment. I was really psyched for this game to come out last year, but when I got it the day it came out it was a huge disapointement. The game doesn't add anything new to Gran Turismo, its the same game we have been playing for years, just more tracks and cars(most of which are useless or slight variations of other cars). The graphics are ok though, but one thing that Complete disapointment. I was really psyched for this game to come out last year, but when I got it the day it came out it was a huge disapointement.

The graphics are ok though, but one thing that really bugs the hell out of me is that no shadows are cast on the cars, this makes the cars look like they don't belong in the environement when i just drive overtop a tree shadow like its painted onto the track. I think I only managed to keep interest for a week or two, if that. If you want a racing sim that actually improves on the ideas found in the Gran Turismo series, pick up Forza on XBOX instead, much better game.… Expand

    Apart from more new cars being available, this is a step back in every respect rom gran Turismo 3. The courses are narrower, pointlessly winding, there is more sand, you can't turn off tire wear, more features are locked, there are no cheat codes...I give this an F. The people making this game are clueless.

    It's a really nice game, i have to say... but there is just something missing there. Is it more cars? Is it more tracks? Is it more innovation? I don't know.

    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.
