Muppet coat on...

GT3 Euro release starts to settle...

Following SCEE’s tentative release date for the incredible Gran Turismo 3 on PlayStation 2, a more fixed schedule has emerged

After seeing the latest build of Polyphony Digital’s Gran Turismo, we can categorically tell you that this is the greatest racing game, of any kind, ever made. We reckon you’re going to be shocked. Sony has only issued a June 1 release date, described as "tentative", up to this point, but has slightly revised its schedule this morning.
According to company reps, the game is currently slated to arrive in Europe in the second week of June. For those of you that simply can’t wait that long, the Japanese code is on track to be completed by the end of March and will be released in Japan as planned on April 21.

Really, this is the step forward in driving games you’ve been waiting for. Get ready with those import pounds at the end of April.

Any news on wether there will be a PS2 force feedback steering wheel? Would be a great bundle!

Also any news on wether the Sony DVD remote out in Japan is coming to Europe?

Apart from the 150seconds limit, i am seriously impressed with the GT3 demo.

The use of the analogue pad for variable throttle takes some getting used to but i found myself braking far less and feathering the throttle.

The way the view shakes when you ride the kerbs has to be seen to be believed.

Fantastic, can't wait.
