Title: Back in my day........
Product review: This is a great and realistic game. Only thing you need with it is a steering wheel and foot pedals. They are a must if you want to enjoy this game properly. Many people have sung the praises of this game, and I cannot top that. A couple of things bug me about it, though. Things that didn't carry over from GT1. First, the license tests are dumbed down so that anyone with a learner's permit can eventually get the super license (kiddy prizes for making enough attempts get you through). Second, there is no option to qualify for position in a race. Starting from the front row is completely different from starting mid-pack, or from the rear (plus you don't get the pole position bonus like in GT1). Overall a great game, and a worthy successor to GT1; but GT2000 will have to remember its roots better. This is not a game for the faint-at-heart, or those who don't take it seriously. Steep learning curve scares away amateurs, leaving room for racing fanatics to enjoy.
