Contents.Gameplay Players now accumulate points by winning races in the normal first-person driving mode, called A-Spec mode. Each race event can yield up to a maximum of 200 A-Spec points. Generally, a win using a car with less of an advantage over the opponents is worth more points.

Points can only be won once, so to win further points from a previously-won event, it must be re-won using a car with less of an advantage over the AI. There are also the 34 which can yield 250 points each. Despite this, A-Spec points are experience points, not money.

A field of Formula GT cars onThe new B-Spec mode puts players in the place of a racing: telling the driver how aggressively to drive, when to pass, and mandating (by monitoring tire wear and fuel level). The speed of the time in the race can be increased up to 3x, allowing for Endurance races to be completed in less time than would take in A-Spec mode. The 3x feature, however, must be turned on after every pit stop because it resets to normal time. The game manual says that the player may speed up B-Spec mode by up to 5x, but this is believed to be a. B-Spec points are given out for each race completed in B-Spec mode.

This increases the skill level of the AI driver in the categories of vehicle skill, course skill, and battle skill. Players can thereby use B-Spec mode in harder races as the game progresses, but this mode cannot be used on wet, dirt and snow courses.Another new addition to the game is the Driving Missions, which are similar in experience to the license tests, but award successful completion with 250 A-Spec points and 1000 or more. Each mission takes place with a given car on a given track or section of track, and a given set of opponents. There are 4 sets of missions: The Pass, in which the driver must overtake an opponent within a certain distance; 3 Lap Battle, in which the driver must pass 5 opponents over the course of 3 laps; Slipstream Battle, in which the driver must overtake identical opponents by way of; and 1 Lap Magic, in which the driver starts with a significant time penalty against much slower opponents and must overtake them all in the space of a single lap. Completing each set of missions earns the player a prize car. There are a total of 5 prize cars available to be won, they are the, Race Car, and the.A new Photo Mode is included in the game, which allows the player to control a virtual camera, taking pictures of their cars on the track or at specific locations, including the.

This game is able to produce a selection of screenshots with variable compression rate (Normal/Fine/SuperFine) and size (up to 1280x960 72dpi), and the user can choose to save or print to a supported USB device.Compared with, graphics are greatly improved with more detail on cars and tracks (despite running on the same PlayStation 2 hardware). The physics are also greatly improved, with the major upgrade that cars now experience body movement, such as pitching (forwards and backwards rolling) under braking.

Barriers have considerably more friction to slow down the cars in GT4 (in an attempt to stop the use of 'wall riding'), but there is minimal friction between cars, so the advantage obtained by running into the side of another car (instead of braking) is still present. Each of the Driving Missions and Special Conditions events give a 5-second penalty for hitting the walls or opponents' cars in this way, where the car's speed is restricted to 50 km/h (31 mph) until the timer disappears when it reaches zero.Hardware compatibility GT4 supports surround, / ( only) and modes, but 1080i is only supported in single player races. Despite the lack of online gameplay, GT4 does support use of the Network Adapter, which can be used to communicate with additional PS2s to create a multi-screen setup. In addition, the Network Adapter can be used to play games on a local for up to six players, though player customized cars cannot be used in a LAN game. Support for the and GT Force steering wheels is continued from.

Other 'PC' steering wheels previously (and unofficially) supported in GT3 were explicitly disabled for GT4. New support is given for storage and print devices used in Photo Mode.Vehicles GT4 continues in its predecessors' footsteps by offering an extremely large list of cars; the PAL version, for example, features 721 cars from 80 manufacturers. There are differences in the car lists between the different GT4 regional versions, and some cars have different names, e.g. The is known as the in places such as Europe and and the second generation is known as the in the same places (PAL version only).

A non-Japanese example is the which was sold in the United Kingdom as the. The is known as the Nissan Fairlady Z in the NTSC-J version.

As was the case with its predecessors, several well-known sports car manufacturers such as Porsche, Ferrari, and Lamborghini do not appear in the game. RUF, a company that produces cars based on Porsche chassis, but is classed as a manufacturer in its own right, reprised this role for GT4.Some of the cars in the game are multiple variations on a single base model; there are 20 different and, 25 /, and 48, including the Concept. One vehicle, another Skyline, is the from the 'Guide Lap' licence tests and is also a prize car. There is also the GT Edition, which was the pace car without the pace car lights, and even more power (541 horsepower, the standard version packs 276). Each vehicle model has over 5000 polygons.Car prices range from about 2500 credits for basic 1980s Japanese used cars up to 4.5 million (450,000,000 in the Japanese version) credits for the top end (mostly ) race cars. Some special prize-only cars (such as the LM Race Car '01) are not visible in the vehicle showrooms, and a few do not have corresponding dealerships, and thus are unmodifiable, for example, the Formula Gran Turismo (Formula 1 car). Also, some concept cars featured in the game ended up becoming mass production cars, such as the.GT4 is responsible for a few vehicle firsts in the Gran Turismo series.

The game was announced at the press conference on May 11, 2004, the same conference where Sony announced the PlayStation Portable. It has since been delayed repeatedly and its completion has been pushed back.

At, Gran Turismo PSP was finally confirmed for an October 1, 2009 date, and was launch title for the. The game was originally intended to be an exact port of Gran Turismo 4, although it also included selected content from later games, such as from and new cars such as, and SpecV.

He ran in real life and used an for a lap time of 1:57. But in the game he used a (which is lighter) with a lap time of 1:41:148. Clarkson also had to be shown by a race driving instructor where the line was between the game and reality.

He pointed out that adjusting one's braking mid-turn in a real car could cause loss of control, and also mentioned that in the game, he is compelled to take bigger risks than he would in real life, and that in the game, the car did not suffer from. Despite the apparent discrepancies, in a column for, Clarkson gave the game a score of three stars out of five and had this to say about it:“I called Sony and asked it to send me a game chip already loaded with the 700 computer cars. And I am in a position to test out its claims because, unlike most people, I really have driven almost all of them in real life. Pocket mine 2 hack. There are mistakes. The BMW M3 CSL, for instance, brakes much better on the road than it does on the screen. And there's no way a Peugeot 106 could outdrag a Fiat Punto off the line.

But other than this, I’m struggling: they’ve even managed to accurately reflect the differences between a Mercedes SL 600 and the Mercedes SL 55, which is hard enough to do in real life. There's more, too. If you take a banked curve in the Bentley Le Mans car flat out, you’ll be fine. If you back off, even a little bit, you lose the aerodynamic grip and end up spinning. That's how it is. This game would only be more real if a big spike shot out of the screen and skewered your head every time you crashed. In fact that's the only real drawback: that you can hit the barriers hard without ever damaging you or your car.

Maybe they’re saving that for GT5. Perhaps it’ll be called Death or Glory.”Karl Brauer of performed a similar test, also at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, in which he and two others — professional race driver, and gaming editor Justin Kaehler — set times in GT4 and real life in a variety of cars. Brauer's best time in a in the game was 1:38, and his best time on the real track was 1:52. In the four vehicles the trio tested, none was able to duplicate his game times on the real track.

Brauer suggested the main differences between the game and reality:“Which brings up the single biggest difference between reality and virtual reality — consequences. A mistake on Gran Turismo 4 costs me nothing more than a bad lap time. A mistake with a real exotic car on a real racetrack is. A bit more costly.

The other major difference between virtual racing and the real thing is feedback from the car — or an almost total lack thereof. Yes, the force feedback steering wheel does its best to let you know when you're veering off the track, or sliding the rear end, but none of this comes close to the kind of information you get while driving a real vehicle. And in a car like the Ford GT, that's vital information.”Many reviewers criticized the game for its continued lack of rendered damage. Instead of actual damage, the cars (depending on the speed and angle in which the collision occurred) simply bounce or spin off of the car, wall, or obstacle. Reviewers complained of the continued ability to take unrealistic short cuts, such as the ones on 90's, Driving Park Beginner Course and I, where the driver can cut right across the chicane, allowing a player to win by cheating. One reviewer also complained that the game's vehicles do not have enough grip.

The game has also been criticized for lack of online play which had been promised during early development, but was announced as being removed at the time of release. Many reviewers expressed disappointment in the game's system, noting that 'virtual racers will follow their (driving) line with little concern for where the human driver is at any one time.' This is more evident during rally races and missions in which a 5-second speed penalty is given for hitting the other cars or the barriers, regardless of who initiated the contact.

Some critics found B-Spec mode to offer little to the overall experience.Non video-game publications made some positive reception too. Sean Cunningham of gave the game a perfect ten and asked, 'Is GT4 more fetish than game? But if this is a fetish, then put a leather hood on us and whip us till we bleed!' Jason Hill of gave it all five stars and stated that the game's biggest strength 'is the realistic handling. You feel every nuance of the car's movements, weight shifts and suspension, particularly with a Driving Force Pro steering wheel.

This is a peerless driving simulation that will test even professional drivers.' Charles Herold of gave it a positive review and stated that while the game 'aims for realism, it occasionally falls short. Competitors drive like mindless automatons, seemingly unaware of your existence. Cars can take endless amounts of damage, allowing you to control your turns by bouncing off other cars like a pinball. If a track doesn't have walls, like one set in the Grand Canyon, then an invisible barrier prevents you from going off track.'

However, Jim Schaefer of gave it three stars out of four and stated that 'GT Mode does a great job of organizing your choices on a large home map. You can leave your garage to race, or jump over to ogle new and used rides at domestic and foreign dealerships, take on special challenges and buy parts upgrades.'
