GT4/5 blow

Post by WANGAN_X »

compared to Rfactor...

holy shit, on sat i spent nearly the entire day playing this game and i gotta say GT4 is absolutely worthless compared to it. it is another driving sim, but, it is only for PC, if you haven't tried it download it, buy it, and buy a wheel with paddle shifters, you will not be disappointed

any classification of vehicles or tracks you can think of is out there, from dirt tack to F1, and the vehicle all handle true to life, the only thing missing is driver and passenger windows to really give you the feeling of speed.

another totally badass part to this game is just about any track out there is in it, even barber and VIR are in it:D

Or a 120" projector WS would probably look good too.

Does the game support multiple monitors for different views?
