I've been playing Gran Turismo 3 again.I've known for ages that there are Formula One Grand Prix cars and Indy cars in the later stages of the game, but getting to the actual point there you can even see them, let alone drive them has been a very long process.
Up till yesterday, I'd completed every race in the Beginner, Amateur and Pro levels, except for the very last race series... which was Indy and F1 cars. The trouble was, I didn't have a car to compete in that series, and you have to win one... you can't buy them.
So anyway, being bored, I took my newest and fastest car... a Toyota GT1 car and went for a romp around the Endurance races. Several hours and 3 races later, I now have a funky white and purple Indy car... Woohoo!
Now... if what I've been reading is correct... and it may not be, if you win every single race in every series in simulation mode, there's a very special prize car. So, I'm now in the process of going back through all the individual races I didn't win, and wiping the floor with them in my Indy car, before embarking on the process of entering the F1 and Indy races. What's this special prize car? If my information is correct... it's a rocket car. We'll see.
If it's true, and I manage to win one... I'll take pics and post them here. It's all new ground to me, 'cause though I know several people who play this game, I don't know anyone who's as good at it as me , and thus... don't know anyone who's gotten this far into the game.
(Not saying there isn't anyone as good as me... I just don't know them)
If truth be told, I'm rather eager to finish this game for a couple of reasons. One being that I consider it something of a waste of money to buy a game and never complete it, and I've had this one for a couple of years, already having completed Medal Of Honour and Spyro. The other reason being that Gran Turismo 4 will be out soon, and I wanna finish this before starting that. GT 4 should be rather a special thing, as it features Internet Play and I have a point to prove to a particular person. You know who you are, and I'm gonna kick your butt ;-)
Okay... sad video game rant over... for now.
