Question

All

I know we have had many posts on this but several things.

Does anyone know when the UK edition is going to be released.

Where is the best place to buy it online.

Is there a Caterham in it and if so which one or are there several ?

Cheers

Mark

FYI - the delay between the US and UK release has apparently been to squash some bugs in the game, some of which were rather nasty. Not sure how true this delay thing is - comments Dario

Sony US has offically announced that GT2 was a bit messed up and is offering US gamers free 'fixed' discs! which is nice.

So hopefully we'll get the fixed version from day one!

I *can't* wait for it. My girlfriend is gonna be really fed up this w/e when all I'm doing is playing GT2.

I've got the US version, and there were certainly a lot of glitches in the game.
Difficult to change it now though!
Still, I'll probably get the UK version too, so we all start on a vevel(ish) playing field.
Don't think there are any Caterhams in it though.

I have an early PAL copy and it plays just like the first (that’s a compliment BTW).

The creators have upped the detail in the cars by sacrificing the scenery.

The most impressive moment is when you go up the **** of an Lancer Evo and you can pick out the name badge perfectly.

The biggest improvement is in the selection of cars, though.

Question

Stef,

I've got US GT2 as well. You mentioned glitches in the game.
Have you got this problem. My best time for any track is not transfered on the area in the top right hand corner, its still got blank dashes.
I'm well P****d off cause I've put good times in.

See Ya!

Idris.

Yes, that's one of the problems. I was also able to enter ma lot of the special events using the same car....when was a 22B ever a convertible, an 80's car, a luxury sedan, an estate.........

Still, top game, if not a little easy.
I hope the UK version's a bit tougher.

Stef.
