Epinions Still the standard of the genre!

by  kameraguy,  Mar 4, 2003
Pros: Excellent graphics Well done physics car selection Supports Logitech FF wheel
Cons: Need more cars from each manufacturer Online game option
The Bottom Line: Gran Turismo 3: A-spec still remains the benchmark for all other racing sims. If you like racing cars, and want realism, GT3 still delivers!
Review: What can I say. I am a car nut. I love all things about cars. If I were a rich guy, i'd own all the cars I could. But since i'm not rich, GT3 is an excellent way to feel so.

I've been a fan of the Gran Turismo series since day one. The only...

Epinions Hey, what the hell is this? Oh, yet another long winded epinion on GT3

by  Action_Snark,  Jul 26, 2001
Pros: Amazing graphics, engrossing gameplay, excellent control and sound.
Cons: Engine noise drowns out the music, occasionally erratic AI in computer controlled drivers.
The Bottom Line: Far and away the best PS2 game in it's genre, and probably the best PS2 game on the market at this time. An almost perfect racing game.
Review: Ok, first off, let me say that I am not a car person. I don't care about performance, and unless it's an old Chevy, I can't repair it. The bearing that last statement has on this epinion is this: GT3 had one strike against it right out of the blocks...

Epinions If you're a racing fan, you already own it.

by  Nightshade_01,  Jul 17, 2001
Pros: Amazing graphics, control, soundtrack, car selection
Cons: Steep learning curve, too sim-heavy for some
The Bottom Line: It was only a matter of time before I reviewed this. It's a die-hard sim for the die-hard racing fan.
Review: It's no secret that I, along with thousands of other gamers, have been waiting for this game with baited breath ever since it was announced in the spring of 2000. At that time, it was just going to be a warmed-over version of Gran Turismo 2, and be...

Epinions Now All We Need Is an AMC Eagle to Make This Game Have Cons!

by  hyundai_fan,  May 6, 2003
Pros: Many cars, many manufacturers, visuals, car physics accuracy.
Cons: Umm... I'm Thinking!
The Bottom Line: For the car freaks everywhere...
Review: Doesn't this seem like the old review I published called "Is this the Best Game Ever? I Say 'Yes'"? Well, it is with minor improvements. I figured that since it wasn't getting hits, I might as well redo the review and see if it is better the second...

Epinions How much HP *CAN* you get out of a Miata, anyways?!??

by  psykosis_fc,  Jul 16, 2001
Pros: Probably the only option you've got on any console for a decent sim-ish racer.
Cons: probably will not have anything better than it until a sequel is released.
The Bottom Line: You like racing games? YOU NEED GT3! It's a GranTurismo game for crying out loud; what more information do you need?!?? =)
Review: Where O where to begin? It's been quite some time since I've written an epinion here and almost as long since I've read/rated anything outside the email notifications I get.

What has brought me out of hiatus so to speak? Well, frankly I...

Epinions Vrooom

by  molydeus,  Aug 25, 2001
Pros: Great graphics, great control
Cons: Many of the same tracks from GT 2
The Bottom Line: This game is a work of art, if you like racing games at all get it.
Review: My roommate, whom is a long time fan of the GT series (and all racing games in general) recently purchased this game. However, I do believe I have played it more than he at this point in time.

Epinions PS2's crowning title

by  aknutson,  Jul 20, 2001
Pros: Just WOW! Amazing graphics, driving realism, replays, soundtrack
Cons: some more customization on general features, less repetitive racing
The Bottom Line: You need this game! It is everything a driving simulator should be, and more.
Review: This game is truly amazing to play. As a car enthusiast, I was totally hyping the game before it came out, and for the most part, the game has not let me down in any aspect. A few quirks, but otherwise completely stunning.

Epinions GT3 - A spec (UK edition) its a long one.

by  iamfoggy,  Apr 17, 2003
Pros: Almost Perfect Graphics, accurate engine sounds, and a fantastic physics model.
Cons: A distinct lack of realism in one or two areas.
The Bottom Line: It's not the perfect racing game, but it's so close you can taste it, and physically, it's a superior racing game to anything else.
Review: I'm writing this a while after GT3 has been released, partially because I wanted to write my first review on something, and also this is a game I feel I can offer an accurate opinion on.

The third in the GT series is the first on the PS2, and...

Epinions Wanna go for a drive?

by  ChromeKiller, top reviewer in Games ,  Jul 17, 2001
Pros: Graphics that are unbelievably real, tons of cars and tune up variations, and cool music.
Cons: Mounds of difficulty.
The Bottom Line: If you have the time, determination, and skill to want to spend hours tuning up cars, and racing them, Gran Turismo 3 is your game!
Review: Racing fans...the time has come to experience the most majestic racing game you can ever imagine. If you thought that graphics could be any realer on any other game, obviously, you were mistaken. Gran Turismo 3 takes real life and smashes it into a...

Epinions The king of racers still holds the crown.

by  joyrex5,  Jul 18, 2001
Pros: Breathtaking graphics, realism, amount of options/features.
Cons: Not a huge step up from the earlier GT games, game-play wise.
The Bottom Line: If you love cars (and who doesn't), you will find yourself at home with GT3. It's a car lovers dream.
Review: I will start by telling you how long I have been looking forward to this game, as many of you probably have also. It's the sole reason I purchased a Playstation2 and if any other great titles were released, they would be bonuses.

I was...
