Gran Turismo 3 - PS2 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)At the time of its release this was perhaps the most realistic driving game around. Having already played the first two Gran Turismo games, this was just another step towards racing simulator perfection on the console. The game can be endlessly complex or as simple as you want it to be with any number of tuning and upgrade options. This game is only bested by Gran Turismo 4 on the PS2. Anyone who is a fan of race simulation games and owns a PS2 should already own this game and if not I suggest you buy it and waste a whole lot of time trying to achieve 100% completion as this is truly an achievement. Be warned, this game introduces endurance races which will take several hours to complete. Only the hardest of the hardened racers should even attempt these races. I wasted a whole chunk of my childhood playing this game and I can say with confidence that I do not regret it.

Lumines Plus Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Q? Entertainment wisely decided to leave the core gameplay unaltered from the original "Lumines".It's still as addictive as ever, with the falling 2x2 blocks and simple 2-color scheme giving way to complex strategies.The additions come in the form of new skins, new songs (some of which have video backgrounds), new mascots (mine's a kitty!), an expanded puzzle mode, and a remix mode where you can create your own musical effects.The game also allows you to start at an intermediate or advanced difficulty, for those of us who could keep playing the original for hours after maxing out the score.My only complaint is that the song list feels somewhat shorter than the first game, and it didn't take long before I had looped it and was repeating the same tracks again.Still, Lumines is already a new classic for puzzle games, and this sequel adds more of what most players will want.

Gran Turismo 3 A-spec Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)i love this game but, with that said, i want to get the bad stuff out of the way...
LESS CARS-many less...a lot of my favorites have gone the way of the dodo.126 cars to start with, with a few more added later, is a lot, but when compared to four to five times that in gt2, it pales in comparison...
DUMB A.I.-sure the computer cars are a little more "intelligent" than before, but when a random car that had never been touched slams its brakes, effectively taking it out of the race, just to stop the player, then their is work to be done... besides this, all cars still follow a racing line, albeit not as religiously as before.a.i. could be better...
NO DAMAGE-understandably, the manufacturers will not allow the gt producers to portray their perfect cars as anything less than that(i.e. no scratches or dents in these work machines), but slamming a wall at 200km/h plus,(i have japanese version) will have repurcussions.i will gripe and gripe until this is corrected!
NO WORKING HEADLIGHTS-i will give my right eye for a left one that can see the road!why turn on theheadlights at all?the street lights obviously do an adequate job!the headlights look pretty, but do nothing!yes this is a minor gripe, but simple physics is not too much to ask for!argh...
ok...with that out of the way, time for the good...
GRAPHICS-obviously being the first thing one will notice, the graphics are phenomonal!sure, the audience remains a cardboard cut-out and the rear- view mirror does not present all the fixins(very generic), but with these being the only flaws, this game is truly a sight to behold.the lighting is extremely impressive(i was actually blinded by the sun) and the textures are right on.i have read of texture lighting problems, but have yet to experience any.all the touches are in the right places.and the replays...beautiful!
MUSIC-again, sony got different bands for the soundtrack...like lenny kravitz, feeder, grand theft audio, overseer...it really keeps you motivated.although i do like the music in gt2 a bit better(one of the best video game soundtracks ever), this music was still right on!
MORE RACES-even more races including the gt2 rally races and some f-1 racing this time, the race options are amazing!
IMPROVED PHYSICS-not a very noticeable change, as gt2 had great physics, but a significant one at that. rear and mid engine cars do not flair as wildly out of control as in the past, and the new wet ground physics are great.the pinball action off the side rails remains, however...
running out of space, i realize there is a lot to say about this game, and it is an extremely enjoyable experience.granted, the time to make each car model limited the selection this time around, but there are still more cars than any other ps2 racer.try it out and see...especially if you have never played a gran turismo game...you are sure to enjoy!
