There's a car setup screen that gets more important as you get more serious and a wide range of control and display options. It's the perfect el cheapo response to a mid-life crisis. A thorough video mode lets you watch a replay of between 13 and 120 seconds of your last lap, and automatically saves your "hot laps" on each course to relive your best trips.Sound is excellent (I recommend a subwoofer, particularly for the big-block engines. Remember all those great cars you saw but couldn't afford when you were a kid. Well, if you still can't afford a vintage Mustang or Alfa Romeo (and can't find an Austin Mini that still runs), you can simulate the feeling with this game.It's got a wide selection of cars and tracks -- with tons more from modders -- and runs beautifully on mid-level computers (now that it's a couple of years old, anyway).It has a couple of levels where you can pretty much jump in and drive, arcade-style, working up to the top two of five difficulties that are a fairly rigorous simulation of herding a car with a huge engine and not much of a chassis around gorgeously captured road courses.The car physics are well-modeled (darting around a tight course in an underpowered Mini and trying to coax your Jaguar Mk II to keep the shiny side up on the same course is like two different games). wow).It could use better crash animations and you don't have enough choice in how you should level up to unlock cars and tracks (although the first three levels make an excellent lesson in the game, lacking only the name "tutorial"). You'll want better than a gamepad for control (good flight joystick or wheel).Great, great driving game.
You cannot call yourself a racing sim fan without owning this game. The graphics are phenomenal, and the sound is truly awesome. It is the most perfect game ever. The easier settings are not too easy, and the harder ones are not too daunting. Every car has its quirks, every track is a challenge on to itself, and every race is a new adventure.If you already own a steering wheel, then buy this game. If you don't, then buy one and buy this game.
Thanks to this edition is possible to continue to play GTLegends in case of damage of old 10Tacle edition, as in my case, Thanks,the delivery fantastic but expensive
You will need to concentrate and learn the game in order to obtain all of 90 cars. When I rec'd the game I thought, your usual driving game with ok options. I was presently surprised that this game is not for everyone. The realism and graphics are amazing. Good buy.
I ended up spending about a hundred bucks for the Logitech Momo wheel and pedals and this GREATLY improved the play and feel of the game. We'll see how that goes, although it is possible as others have done so :) The only reason that I did not give this game 5 stars is that it is very difficult to play with just the keyboard or game pad.
While this game does not have those specific cars, the ones that it does have are very well done, and with the availability of many of the old tracks in the US via several race game websites, it is possible to come pretty close to simulating the Trans Am races. With all of the car and track dynamics that this game uses, it really is less of a game and more of a simulation.
I was looking for a game that had the old 70's Trans Am race cars in it. I am playing now with adding in new cars that do not exist in the original game such as a Camaro or Challenger.
The great old American cars, Vettes and Mustangs, are real beasts to drive, while the European cars, the Lotuses and such are much more refined and handle smoother, very much like the real cars do. I did a little extra research and figured out how to create and add my own custom skins into the game which gives it a little more personal feel.
I was able to play, but the experience left something to be desired. I highly recommend this game, but for the fullest experience, you need a wheel and pedals and if you don't have them, which I didn't, it is an extra expense.
