ive seen it. is it good?

Witchdoctor 06-09-2010 11:43 AM

yea I like it a lot

Not a need for speed deal

Hard core sim racer .... hit the wall and your done , miss a shift blow the engine

ton of fun once you get onto it though .......... if you dig driving really fast

need a wheel to be effective ...

prolly get it fo 6.99 on the budget rasck as it does not appeal to the masses due to the difficulty level

I may go buy one for it... i have an old ass thrustmaster, but prolly not worth crap

Witchdoctor 06-09-2010 02:09 PM

LOL ... to funny I had a thrustmaster in 1999 .............. LOL

May be able to get a G25 at a decent price since the G27 has been released

G25 is what I have .... great wheel and metal slap shifters so they don't break off

the plastic slap shifters don't even last a night..............

Kewl bro ... let me know if you are up for some action and have secured a copy

Defenantly do not recomend trying to use a controller for this sim ..... cars are way to responsive ..... and using a dead zone is certain death .......... :taunt:

Tried to upload a replay but the site does not support it

running 2:17's at the SPA

can't see the dudes time though, Plus the Lambo pwns this track

Chuchnit 06-10-2010 02:26 AM

Damn you can tell that game is super technical. I can't play those :eek:

Witchdoctor 06-10-2010 02:57 AM

Yea it is brutal and you pay dearly for the slightest mistake .....

I love it though, I was never able to get into the race games where you slam into somebody of skip the track and wreck with no consenquences ...
You have to be on your game to roll with GTR for sure .....

a missed shift can cost you the race .....

It does also offer what I call gimp mode where damage mistakes are not as costly

they even have an automatic transmission option as well ... but I play with all assists off and 100% acurate damage, tire ware and parts failure .....

Garage is as deep as I have ever seen for tweaking your ride, but beware as you can dial it out with just a 1/2 pound of air in the front left ..... or a minot wing adjustment

They have a new one out called GTR Evolution ... may have better graphics ... Hope they did not mess with the physics though .....

SIM BIN = WIN

punx223 06-10-2010 12:25 PM

i saw the gtr evolution... having a lil trouble finding gtr 2 gonna check steam soon

Witchdoctor 06-10-2010 12:41 PM

I am thinking of grabbing evolution to see what is new ...

Like I said above hope they did not dick with the physics as it is the best I have ever seen .....

See if I can get to the game stop this weekend a grab a copy .... I will let you know what it like and if it is worth the investment ....

I can get around star force if need be
