Out of all the car racing games I ever played, this one seems to be the closest to reality and giving the best driver experience

The experience is frustrating

To date, I still feel that Gran Turismo 3 provides the best racing experience and realism.

If you want the most realistic pure sports car "racing" experience - buy LeMans 24 Hours.

Physics Gran Turismo 3 delivers the most realistic racing experience

The graphics and flow of this game is extremely incredible!!

The graphics are spectacular and the game play is so realistic.

I like this game because it has the best graphics in a car game

As has been mentioned many a time in other reviews, the graphics for this version are as visually stunning as any game I've seen to date for the PS 2 console, or even for a computer game

Plus, the graphics are probably the best of any racing game ever

Grand turismo was the first ps2 game i had ever bought.

so if u want any racing game get all 3 grand turismo games ok

this game is a challenging,but very fun(if u hav alots of free time).in the game, its very hard 2 make turns, u either crash into walls or get hit by cars behind u cause u stopped 2 long

but I would still recommend it to someone who has not played any of the Grand Turismo games before

I bought Grand Turismo 3 A-spec about a year ago and i played it for a while

But remember that this game has truely realistic driving physics

Also, the physics actually make braking and superior driving skills critical

The game, though, has many good qualities which include stunning graphics and amazingly realistic physics

a testament to the detail put into the realistic physics of each car and how it drives

They call this a "realistic driving simulator" and it is....kinda.

This flaw unfortunately allows you to get by with sloppy driving technique and can turn the game into a Nascar racer.

At the time of its release this was perhaps the most realistic driving game around

Well, that's what they advertise this game to be: the most realistic driving sim around.

GT3 is not only the best racing game ever produced, it's one of the best video games ever produced

To be honest, I think Gran Turismo 1 was the best racing game ever.

This is just the latest version of the best racing game ever, that of course being Gran Turismo.

If you are like me, this would be the best racing game that suits you.

When getting your first car, don't upgrade it because after you do, you will probally still lose the races

All time is lost when you experience GT3, and 24 hours may accidentally be lost as you suddenly notice the rising sun to your disbelief

The game is great, graphics and sound is unbelievable with an excellent music soundtrack on top of it.

The soundtrack is fairly good as well with music from Goldfinger and Snoop Dogg

Insane graphics, Tight control, and a soundtrack that will blow your

New tracks are fantastic, cars are absolutely gorgeous and Mazda RX-8 rocks

The gameplay is pretty much repetitive and the tracks are boring

The cars are detailed, the tracks look excellent, and it's realistic, too.

the cars look very realistic and the tracks and environments are great but the people on the sides watching look like paper cut outs

I absolutely love the Tokyo tracks and the Rome track for the views of the city.

this has to be the best racing game I ever played (and I've played most of them) the detail on things like heat waves,glowing brake disks,colour &

The cars have incredible detail and intricacies that only the GT designers can seem to do

The cars are represented with great detail, and the background scenery is more than just the sky

All time is lost when you experience GT3, and 24 hours may accidentally be lost as you suddenly notice the rising sun to your disbelief

The pure quality and detail put into the developement of this game is just brilliant

If you want to waste your money go ahead, but if you haveany respect for the gaming industry and a good taste in games, you will purchase a quality title such as Red Faction or Twisted Metal Black

Have patience, save your money up for some terrific upgrades, and crush the competition!I just wish I had more than 5 stars to give to this one!

Beat races, win money, buy cars you could never afford in real life.

That was my mistake and it took me a while to gain enough money to get a better car that was worthwhile to upgrade

It has everything a true gamer could want, endless replay enjoyment and value, awesome graphics and sound, completely realistic physics

the sound is pale in comparison to GT2(The best of Gran turismo soundtracks)

The graphics are just fantastic, the sound is good and the music aint bad

Sound is a little disappointing when you consider the leaps and bounds the graphics have come on - the cars still don't sound as good much as you expect, even when modified

Otherwise the graphics are gorgeous, the sound is great, and the physics are perfect.

The gameplay is pretty much repetitive and the tracks are boring

It's got just-barely-photorealistic graphics and slick gameplay

The gameplay, options, depth, graphics and sound are all superb

Great selection of cars, amazing graphics and great gameplay.

All time is lost when you experience GT3, and 24 hours may accidentally be lost as you suddenly notice the rising sun to your disbelief

The fact that this game is now only $19.99 because of the "Greatest Hits" campaign is amazing

This fact will frustrate some to the degree that it addicts others

Furthermore, I like the fact the GT series uses real world cars I can relate to

I love the fact that tire wear becomes a major issue in the higher levels.

The only downsides are the predictable A1, and the fact that you can only win the car from every group of races once in the whole game, (unless you use 2 memory cards)

Some people may complain about the relatively low number of cars (approx

Anyways the graphics are so good people will ask you what channel you're watching

and it was delayed so much so they could add more cars and the cars dont all handle the same (which makes me think did these people even buy the game or just blowing smoke up peoples

the cars look very realistic and the tracks and environments are great but the people on the sides watching look like paper cut outs

no one complained about it, why are people complaining about

I hated the fact that you had to pass the damn license test before you could even race

i finally got a faster car.the only bad things are the handling is pretty tough, but i got used to it , and the licenses are really hard to get

A few bad things about the game is that the licenses are really a pain to earn (the A licenses is easier to earn then the B licenses), also there are no Ferrari cars to choose from.

Now, for people who are playing the game:I've got both the Super and Rally licenses, so I feel I can say this: Some of the tests are needlessly sadistic, especially when you flunk for knocking over a rubber cone or brushing a railing

This has all the track maps, cars, license guide, and bonus cars won in each race and series race.

now?I have seen people suggesting Twisted Metal Black over GT3....that's depressing.

It is a great buy, and if your contemplating on whether to purchse this or Red Faction, which is probably the best 1st person shooter out, my reccomendation is to buy Gran Turismo, and wait for Metal Gear Solid 2, which is going to be explosive, and your going to need one of the fast cars in this game to get to the store before it sells out in the brief probably 10 minutes the store opens

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.

If you want to waste your money go ahead, but if you haveany respect for the gaming industry and a good taste in games, you will purchase a quality title such as Red Faction or Twisted Metal Black

If you are simply looking for entertaining game...try Twisted Metal Black

This is a fantastic game, the textures, sounds and controld are all top notch, the only problem is a lack of visible car damage

This game is a big ol heap o fun

My only gripe with GT3 is the same problem I've had ever since it's first incarnation...the license tests

Only problem I had was driver licenses were real hard, but hey, what game isn't hard sometimes

The only problems I had with game are the number of cars and not being able to race modify them

Nobody should buy an american made car unless its the dodge viper

The sound in Gran Turismo 3 is equally impressive: everything from the Dodge Viper's primal growl to the high-strung whine of an Indy car is delivered with astonishing clarity - particularly if routed through a five-speaker home entertainment system

This game is a big ol heap o fun

For example, I am pretty certain that one cannot exchange the parts in a Dodge Viper to allow it to have over 1000 horsepower.

Well, I decide I'm going to tackle the first course, a relative oval-shaped track, with a souped up Dodge Viper

Yes I know that you can race against other people in the split screen mode, but who wants to be able to only see half of the screen.

but if you enjoy looking at and using cars and racing against another (split screen) or against computer cars, or against your own best laps (ghost image), then you need to buy GT3 because there will not be another racing game that matches it for some time

About not being able to see very far on the track and the screen is very dark, I really don't have much problem with that, and I have played at least more than 25 hours

Get it while you can, if you have a buddy or two, then you can link the playstation 2s and avoid the split screen

If the screen is too dark, try to adjust your TV brightness setting before complaining about the game, that's what I will do

But, this is not a pure sim, so this gripe can usually be overlooked

My only gripe with GT3 is the same problem I've had ever since it's first incarnation...the license tests

My personal biggest gripe: the controls are too hard to get used to with the gamepad.
