Not a bad price either... I can't see this game being discounted any time soon after launch.

I can't wait for this game! :Q

Wow I think I may have to pick this game up. I bought the original GT3 ps2 game bundle. I also wanted to buy that steering wheel... maybe this time I'll be able to buy both!!! -- I have a job now!

Thanks for the heads up.

In my opinion, the quality of the game has consistently gone down hill from I to II to III. I will probably rent this game before buying. I was really disappointed in the III version. The vast majority of the cars were ones that I wouldn't want to own in real life (let alone in a game). After I realized that I already owned all of the cars in the game that I was interested in, I quickly stopped it.

I need to get the Logitech Steering wheel before I get this game.

Check out these screenshots!

As for the car selection, i'll agree that in GT3 it was somewhat limited in comparison to GT2 but I didn't really find any big changes in the driving dynamics.

This time around it's been confirmed that there are going to be over 1,000 cars available and even a few sport trucks too. Add in 6-player online racing via the Network Adaptor, and you have the recipe for a smash hit.

I have the Logitech wheel that was developed for GT3, and let me tell you it changes the game completely. Once you get it setup in a comfortable position, it makes the game inifinitely more fun.

You should be able to pick up one of these units pretty cheap once the GT4 wheel comes out. It appears that it will be mostly the same, except that the new wheel will have a full 900 degrees of travel. The old wheel only has around 360 degrees of travel, but that's good enough for me.

Really? 900 degrees of travel, hmmm might make it more realistic than the current one. I might wait and look into the new one comming out then.
