I certainly am, and have been for over year now... :o( However, I think there might be some competition in the way of Konami's up and coming game: http://konamistudio.co.jp/enthusia/eng/top/index.html

Did anyone see the hack that will allow GT4 to actually run multiplayer over the internet? That was a feature dropped by the developers, but it can be done by using a program similar to the old KALI multiplayer utility. I don't have the magazine with the details, but GT4 will have LAN mulitplayer and the KALI clone will open the internet by imitating a LAN enviroment. dh

I'm not in England but am looking forward to the game. FiringSquad (www.firingsquad.com) just did a review and the only downside is that it won't support the Logitech MOMO wheels. So I guess I need to buy a new wheel strictly for GT4. :(

I am VERY excited about GT4. I dug up my original pre-order payment receipt and it was over 1.5 years ago! Scary... I was considering the Logitech Driving Force Pro wheel to compliment GT4, and when I heard the original Nordschleife is in it I decided I would definitely be getting the wheel.

Well - that's why you get special sauce (aka Driving Force Pro) ;). I've been considering picking up a console for some quick gaming fun - was going to get a Gamecube because they're so damn cheap, but GT4 may sway me to a PS2. Kendt

I`ve got a logitech driving force pro, and have enjoyed using it on GT4 prologe... I have also frexed mine out, so cant wait to try it..

The have some video on Real world car physics -vs- In game. Very cool demonstration! http://konamistudio.co.jp/enthusia/eng/movie/e3.html I hadn't even heard of this title yet. I guess every so often I come out from under my rock! ;) Looks like I'll buy both GT4 and Enthusia! Thanks for the heads up. -- Pete "Why Racing?

It's had virtually no advertising that I know of, in all the fanboy PS2 newsgroups it's never mentioned (no "badassness" I suppose). I do wonder if Sony put back GT4 to get more info on Enthusia, certainly they've introduced a G-meter which was a major +1 for Enthusia. Also, they've both got Nurburgring. I do think there's going to be a lot of comptetition & comparisons between these games, I only hope the new boys (Konami) are up to it and the old dogs (Sony) have got thier arses in gear now they've got competition... Having both GT Force and GT Driving Force, I can see me losing most of the month these two puppies are released... ah well, the Girlfriend has got pilates. heh. As an aside, Konami are doing a GTA clone/copy/version so I'd say they're gunning for major growth this year...

I decided to purchase my Logitech Driving Force Pro last night in exitement for the arrival of GT4 :) It's only $105 on Amazon.com! and if you're willing to wait (unlike me) free shipping! Thanks, Alex "F50 GT" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:u0rOd.16323$K54.8563@edtnps84...

Don't forget the $20 combined GT4 purchase coupon.

and the new PC drivers that give you the highest resolution for a force feedback device on the market apparently - i was getting 16000 raw input readings in a 360degree range of motion! pez "Dave" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:rqRRd.21295$[email hidden]... > In article <F3RRd.26461$ya6.25511@trndny01>, "Alex Kihurani"<[email hidden]> wrote: > >I decided to purchase my Logitech Driving Force Pro last night inexitement > >for the arrival of GT4 :) It's only $105 on Amazon.com! and if you're > >willing to wait (unlike me) free shipping! > > Don't forget the $20 combined GT4 purchase coupon.
