	Gran Turismo 4 Review - GamersMark (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Gran Turismo 4 is no different than any other game in the series, or any other racing simulation, in the way that it appeals to the more hardcore gamer and racing fan.
		Gran Turismo 4 tries to be as accurate as possible when taking one of these digitally rendered cars for a drive.
		Gran Turismo 4 is another one of those games that fail to give a uniqueness to the performance of opposing racers, thus they feel like exactly what they are, and that is an AI-controlled opponent, instead of an opponent that feels lifelike and independent.

	Gran Turismo 4 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gran Turismo 4 (also known as GT4) was released on December 28, 2004 in Japan and Hong Kong (NTSC-J), February 22, 2005 in the United States (NTSC-U/C), and March 9, 2005 in Europe (PAL), and has since been re-issued under Sony's 'Greatest Hits' line.
		While Gran Turismo 2 did have a racing version of the Renault Espace, GT4 was the first of the series to feature a stock minivan.
		A special version of GT4 featuring three tracks and four vehicles (the 118d, 120d, 118i and 120i) was given by BMW to customers who purchased their 1 Series automobile before it was released.

	GranTurismo4
		The long awaited arrived of GT4 for PS2 is an event that should please fans of the series and genre, as it builds substantially on previous installments, while not losing the essence of its appeal.
		Another key element that separates Gran Turismo 4 from most other titles on the market is its attention to detail and authenticity.
		Gran Turismo 4 represents the pinnacle of the genre, and marks another high-water mark for the franchise.

	Gran Turismo 4 Review - GamersHell.com
		Gran Turismo 4 defines everything a racing game for the PS2 should be, and it easily leaves all of its competitors in the dust.
		Driving missions are new to the Gran Turismo series, where you are put in a situation in which you must pass the other car, without hitting him, and then crossing the finish line in first.
		Gran Turismo 4's greatest feature would have to be the endless amounts of customization available to the cars.

		Gran Turismo 4 hasn’t strayed much from the formula that made it popular in the first place.
		One of the most interesting new additions to GT4 is the “B-Spec” mode; which allows you to view the race in real-time and give commands to your driver, sort of like having your own life-size remote control car.
		Gran Turismo does an excellent job with the engine sounds, and the soundtrack has a nice variety to it.

		GT 4 is finally here, and Brian Ekberg is here to explain why you need to give this driving simulation a test drive.
		Yet beneath all the considerable content, Gran Turismo 4 remains remarkably similar to previous iterations in the series, which, depending on your point of view, may or may not be a good thing.
		Lighting effects that were impressive in Gran Turismo 3 are stunning in GT4, both in terms of technical achievement (such as in the real-time reflections on car doors) and artistic aesthetic (the luminous George Paris street track or the neon-drenched section of the Hong Kong city course).

	Review: Gran Turismo 4 - PS2 \| lawrence.com
		With 4 years of difference between GT3 and GT4, you would think that some of these issues could be fixed or worked on, but they haven't been at all.
		GT4 does have room for improvement, as all simulation games do, but as of right now, there is nothing like it.
		GT4 is not perfect, but it is absolutely far and away the best racing game available for console systems.

	GameSpy: Gran Turismo 4 Review
		Gran Turismo 4 has been a very long time in the making.
		The sheer depth is astounding and although it's not without flaws, Gran Turismo 4 represents the very pinnacle of visual excellence and racing gameplay for a home console.
		Its epic Gran Turismo mode is so vast that the average gamer might never even get close to finishing it, but those that are willing to put the extra time in are the very audience that Sony is targeting.

	Gran Turismo 4: PlayStation 2 (PS2) Game Reviews - The Armchair Empire
		In Gran Turismo 4 this has been corrected by placing the camera a tiny bit higher, thus making it much easier to see where one is going.
		The new tracks are very rewarding, as they provide a nice range between courses that let players really open up their cars’ engines on straightaways, and other tracks that have a lot of twists and turns, requiring a strong grasp of braking and cornering techniques.
		Regardless of what sort of track one races on, it quickly becomes apparent that the AI in Gran Turismo 4 is much better than in previous games.

	Fragland.net \| Reviews ::: Gran Turismo 4
		Gran Turismo 4 has finally arrived after multiple delays, but along the way the promised online mode (maybe we'll see it later this year with GT4 Online) was thrown overboard.
		Yes, Gran Turismo 4 is once again the best driving simulator around, offering an incredible list of cars and features, the best graphics the genre has ever had and impressive sound, but I can't shake the feeling it could have been a lot more.
		Gran Turismo 4 is a superb game in most ways, but GT5 will have to feature big innovations, or else the series will inevitably see its downfall.

		Gran Turismo mode will suck up hundreds of your single player hours, while arcade mode houses all the stand-alone events like time-trials, as well as the severely limited multiplayer components.
		Gran Turismo 3 players will be happy to know that licenses and up to 100,000 credits can be transferred over to Gran Turismo 4.
		Gran Turismo 4 remains the standard for racing games, but it does continue to suffer from a lack of a few major components.

	Gran Turismo 4 for PS2 video game review and cheats (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		It’s not a scientific fact or anything, but with the astounding success of the Gran Turismo franchise over the past seven years, I’d be willing to bet it almost is. Here’s another little factoid: 4 out of 5 gamers agree that Gran Turismo 4 has been a long time coming.
		While Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec may have been a bit lacking with its car selection, GT4’s cup brimmeth over with nearly 700 vehicles, from broken down buckets to the hottest super cars out there.
		Gran Turismo 4 finds that happy medium, letting casual racing fans and hardcore gearheads play on the same racetrack without alienating either.

		What the Gran Turismo series is and has been since the early PSone days, is a game about cars.
		The importance of Gran Turismo 4 to the PS2 right now is impossible to overestimate.
		Gran Turismo is one of the final salvos in this generation against the competition, and it proves one thing: When Sony is backed into a corner it gets mean.

	Gran Turismo 4 preview, impressions on the upcoming racing sim from Sony - UGO.com Games
		Gran Turismo is perhaps the crown jewel in Sony's solid 1st party PS2 lineup - the previous Turismo game sold millions of copies (and still sells in buckets today as a Greatest Hit), and is still, 2 years later, one of the best looking games on the PlayStation 2.
		More importantly, Gran Turismo 4 will come with 100 or more tracks to race on, both of the rally and pavement varieties.
		It's almost a no-brainer that Gran Turismo 4 will be another great entry into a great racing series - all that's left is the anticipation to dig in to the single player game and hit the streets online.

	Gran Turismo 4 PS2 Review @ Gaming Target
		With online pulled at the 11th hour, the lack of any kind of damage system, and a real feeling of ‘more of the same’ GT4 will not be a catalyst for new GT fans, but instead the pinnacle of a beloved series, a perfection of sorts.
		Don’t read these critical words wrong — Gran Turismo 4 is an amazing, amazing racing game that is fine-tuned to perfection, but don’t think you’re going to see anything ‘new’ about it other than a seemingly endless amount of races, cars, and tracks.
		Simply put, if you’re a GT fan, Gran Turismo 4 is going to be heaven, for months upon months until you finally reach 100%.

		Gran Turismo 3 is the PlayStation 2’s crown jewel.
		And for that reason of anticipation alone, Gran Turismo 4 was Sony’s most heavily scrutinized game at this year’s E3.
		North American gamers may be the most thirsty for a new Gran Turismo game, as we were deprived of the GT Concept games that were released in Asia and Europe.

	TrustedReviews - Gran Turismo 4
		Here’s the Gran Turismo 4 dilemma: on the one hand, we have a sequel that — to the casual observer — looks and feels very much the same as its predecessor.
		We already had a chance to sample the Grand Canyon, New York and Cita di’Aria tracks in GT4: Prologue, but Paris, the Swiss Alps, Seoul and Le Mans are now included, along with the terrifying Nurburgring: an epic raceway of sudden twists and dives, deservedly legendary amongst the educated motoring enthusiast.
		Yet even these numbers can’t really prepare you for exactly how big GT4 really is. The arcade mode is just about manageable, but enter the Gran Turismo mode proper, and the map of options is simply bewildering.

	Gran Turismo 4 Review
		We imported Gran Turismo 4 at the beginning of January from NCSX (where incidentally we’ve imported every other Gran Turismo game for the PS2).
		Well, the rumor is true, GT4 will run at HDTV 1080i resolutions in single player mode (or LAN play) with a notable improvement in image quality.
		Suffice it to say that GT4 on a HDTV looks closer to the photo mode shots than it does to images captured with a standard video capture card, and GT4 on a regular TV is still the best looking PS2 game to date and even looks like a great modern PC game.

		Gran Turismo 4 boasts up to 700 cars (Japanese, German, French and American to name a few), starting with the 1915 Ford Model T Tourer to the brand new 2005 Ford Mustang GT.
		Gran Turismo 4 doesn’t raise the bar nor does it change the way we look at the genre but if you love cars and racing games it will steal your heart.
		Gran Turismo 4 goes beyond our expectations to deliver a racing game that’s destined to become a genuine classic and the main reason fans of this genre will not see any daylight anytime soon.
