A good way to get a-spec points.. race with a medium good car against awesome cars on the Fuji Speedway. There is a kink in the track along the long curve... you can actually blast through that without losing much speed at all, while the AI of the computer makes all the cars slow down and navigate the rather large detour.

i think the best way is to do those "driving challenges"
for each one you get something like 250 A-Spec points, and the first 10 are pieces of cake

hmmmm, so i have an hdtv Sony television that I can't get anything more then a black screen on when I try to switch the game to hi resolution, do I need to run the game thru a htdv converter box to get it to work? Anyone, thanks

what is everyone's completion % ? I think I am sitting right around 33 percent done...it's been a week or so since I played...it was getting to be a little much playing 2-4 a night for a month! I am on day 630 or so , and I'll be getting all of the black cars when day 694 hits..I think I have something like 10-11 million saved up.

Seanland · 04-05-2005, 11:22 PM

So far this game seems much more difficult than GT 3. It just seems like having the most powerful car in the race is no longer a guarentee of victory. Plus the sheer number of new tracks is very daunting. It is so hard to learn the proper line right off of the bat. Especially when your car is an understeering monster like the one I am currently using.

Just bought this game today, but it won't load. ( ps2 is model 50001 ). With disc in, brand new mind you, get the screen " Please insert a Playstation or Playstation 2 formatted disc. ".
Called sony, they're wanting me to return both the PS2 & game for fixing, but all other games that I have work without fault. PS2 is only like 8-9 months old, and the disc is literally brand new, less than an hour.

Anyone know anything?

Seanland · 05-09-2005, 09:50 PM

yea, i heard some of the games were hooched.. my first copy was fucked to.. just return the game get a new one, and it should be fine

Agave · 05-09-2005, 10:19 PM

Returned it, swapped for same title, same deal. I can understand a random disc not working, but 2 from the same batch? . . . It can't be the machine, if all other titles I have work flawlessly, right? Just some incompatibility with the 50001 series?

Get Forza.

Yeah, it's probably your PS2, not the game.
On mine even GTA:VC (another dual layer game) runs fine, but GT4 has frequent loading problems. My PS2 is pretty archaic though, strange that your new one wouldn't load the game at all.
Send it to Sony if they're offering (and you can live without it for a week or two).
