WHy Gran Turismo (GT4) no have AutoX course
After my first autocross, a great idea dawned on me. Why not include a "autocross" editor in the next Gran Turismo game. Since the game is not about racing, but instead driving, it would be awesome.
The "layout" would be: One flat lot. Black tramac, some trees for a background, or shrubs maybe. On this lot you can place cones to create whatever shape and size "auto-x" course you want within the lot. Can it be done? Definately. There are at least 2 PSone games with track editors and GT3 has cones in it that are independent from the track and can be knocked around. I think it would be neat to construct your very own tight auto-x course where say 2nd gear might be the max and settings play a large role.

Secondly, anyone with a rental car can autocross. In other words, why would I want to spend time autocrossing when I could be driving a 800hp Supra race car around Motegi? Finally, autocrossing on a TV with a controller is stupidly difficult. You more or less have to guess where the edges of your car are, since you can't see them, and low-speed control with a game pad isn't eash. |

Uhhh.... it DOES have an AutoX thing. Maybe you can't create your own, but it's there.

And Tim is right... that thing is hard as hell! You see what my best time is compared to what a gold medal and silver medal are, don't you? It's almost impossible to get through that little corner that I have in the 2nd pic without coming to almost a complete stop.... or hitting cones and getting disqualified. It's just way too hard to tell where the car is in relation to the cones. |

Man, you guys must have had the "Special" exchange rate. The dollar has been around $1.20 to 1.00 euro for a while. That would make it $14.40.

I gave up trying to get gold on this course. And yeah, it feels VERY tight when you're playing a video game, you just can't tell if you're going to hit the cones or not. And if you hit a cone, its game over, not +1/2 seconds... |
