I know it's a stretch, but i've been dying to get a new racing game for my PS2 since picking up my GP. (Why is that)?

Anyway, was wondering if anyone knows if there has been any games featuring a GP. I had Grand Turismo 3 a while back which had tonnes of high and mid performance cars, but I don't think a GP was one of them. Hell I know there's tonnes with Honda Civics eek

Cheers! - I hope it's not too off topic, just killing some time while I await the rest of my mods (Probably stuck at customs).

I don't think there are any GP's on any game format. It would be sweet, but it just shows you how underated these cars are.

Well, i've just looked into the GT4 Car lists, and it doesn't look like (at this point) the GP made the list (of 650 cars!). There is a couple Late-model pontiacs including a Vibe and a Sunfire. Here's a screen of one of them, I would assume the Sunfire Concept.



Bummer.

Well im working a second job as a game salesman atm, NFSU2 (Need For Speed Underground 2) being released mid to late november may or may not, they added SUV's and some bigger cars this time around.

As far as GT4 Yea that was my best guess. Since people are saying its not in there though I guess we may be out of luck.

Im surprised theres no racing games with the GP, NASCAR uses them alot along with the monte carloSS which I havent seen in many games either. O well, I like feeling underated anyways.

The closest I got to a GP in a racing game was the acura RSX type S on NFSU with a wide body kit. It looked kinda like a cosmetically modded gp, but it wasnt the same frown , hopefully there will be one in NFSU2

4sssfed, I love that caption!

I'd love to see some more domestics represented than just the Mustang. It's great that the GTO is in the new game, that rocks. I'll check it out.

On another note - I saw the G6 in the showroom last night. Man, that is a nice car! It's very comfy, and the dash is laid out nicely. I just sat it in for a minute, but first impression was positive.

Then I checked out the Malibu Maxx (for my dad) and that same engine (3.5 L) GM Canada says will do 42 MPG on the highway! Crazy!

Hmm, bearing in mind that the new GTA San Andreas is based in the Early 90's, this may slightly resemble a 91 GP? Closest we may get for a bit. (Either way this game is pure FUN)

Thoughts???

i wish there was a gp in some games, but jizz says there's a goat in the game, so i'll have to look for it.

as for gta san andreas, i downloaded the game and was going to burn it, but something is screwed up and it says some of the files might be corrupted for some reason, got to get roadrunner to fix the problem. can't wait to play it though.

San Andreas was BY FAR the largest reserved/talked about/hyped up game ive ever worked with, we had nearly twice the sales on that game than any other in the HISTORY of Funcoland/Gamestop inc., we had 300+ people lined up around the block outside our store and ended up reserving so many games our order couldnt even get everyone a game. I had to be a "bouncer" for the VIP line and the regular line. Absolutely crazy for a friggin video game. If you buy 1 game this year, it should be GTA SA. Halo 2 is looking good too btw. Im closely watching GT4 and NFSU2 but there isnt alot of reliable info about either as of yet.
