Anybody else have a new PS2 with the LAN adaptor or an old one with the external LAN adaptor (I'm assuming they made one)? Racing head to head would be fun.

Watch a replay of a rally lap and note how often you're steering at something other than full lock, or 0. It's pretty much never. In rally you have to mash the wheel back and forth. Something you can't do on a wheel. The replays actually look pretty rediculous... with the car's front wheels snapping from 0 to full lock instantly over and over again. IMO, GT4 is an *excellent* game, but it seriously dropped the ball with the Rally, the total lack of opponent AI (cars never attempt to avoid a wreck, hell they don't even slow down for a stopped car, and never mind the pitting on lap 9 of 10 to lose the race manuver), and the "at the limit" physics (it's near impossible to make a FF or 4WD car oversteer controllably at the limit, only FR/MR cars). I don't expect the GT games to be all that realistic (that's what GTR and RBR are for) but they shouldn't have elements so outlandish that they take away from the fun of driving. Having to burn up a motor in my $150 wheel trying to rally, or driving a car that pushes 90% into a corner then snap oversteers when you give it the tinyest bit of throttle (and none of the settings seem to make a difference, at least not logically) takes away from the fun and show a lack of play testing.

Scott, you should try Rallying with my wheel. It's only got a half turn from lock to lock. I think you'd really enjoy it. It was only $30 since a connector was broken when I got it, but it pretty much kicks ass.

And my wheel has a 180deg lockout mode that reduces the sensitivity of the wheel, but without the steering assist GT4 does when you're driving with the dualshock, it's still crappy.

My GT4 wheel is not constantly lock to lock in rally mode. I love rally mode in GT 4.
Bayley and I are in. |

But like I said, why waste a bunch of time w/ GT4's mediocre-at-best rally, when there are other games that are actually really fun offroad?

Alright, so I can't do any of the super licenses because I only just recently got the B license...and there are a couple laps that I could do from the B License, but the cars really suck, and having a pace car is almost cheating anyway.
You guys can totally vote against this and decide on whatever you want, but here's what I'm suggesting to get the ball rolling. First, I think we can trust eachother to just follow Jonny's suggestion here: Quote:
To start, how about? Car: STi Spec C Track: Infineon Raceway If there are no major objections (get over your fear of arcade mode Sperry ![]()

Here's my last lap for the night... 1'27.628. I'm pretty sure I can pick up about .1 in T4, and another .1 or .2 in the last sweeper before the final hairpin. I just couldn't put it all together. I'd say a "perfect" lap for me is about a 1'27.200 or thereabouts.

1'28.008 on super soft tires. I'd say I am capable of another .8s, cuz that's what I keep falling behind my own shadow on.
