Sega GT Online

Sega GT has been good since the Dreamcast days, & this version is a steady improvement from GT 2002. The biggest problem with 2002 was the lack of tracks, & there are new ones here, along with the obligatory new cars. Overall, the new cars, tracks, & somewhat improved graphics make this a more well-rounded game. While not the prettiest car sim, it does deliver the Gran Turismo PS2 style experience, & 4 a decent price since the day of its release.

Until Forza Motorsport hits the shelves, this is the one 2 buy 4 career mode racing with a wide selection of cars.

After trying the 2002 version I couldn't wait 2 receive the
newer online version. I was never planning 2 actually use
it online.

Here's the rub: several people at the house would like 2 use
it, but the game will only allow one game 2 be saved on the
HD. I bought an Xbox memory card hoping that it would
solve the problem, but it doesn't. You cannot transfer a game
from the hard drive 2 the memory card! For us this was very
disappointing, & makes the game all but useless.

ce jeu est comme une copie de sega gt 2002 sauf que il y a une option pour jouer en ligne contre d autres gens. pas gros d imagination de la part de sega...

About 70% done with game.Alot of great car choices,good new
tracks.Just keep play it 2 get all the cars.Easily worth 20
bucks.PGR2 does have better graphics,but hey.Who only has 1
racing game?

As an Xbox Live enthusiast, I've played countless games online. Midtown Madness 3 is my all-time favorite, but I've also finished Project Gotham 2 & played it online. Naturally when I saw this game selling brand new 4 under 1/2 the cost of other new Xbox games, I snatched it right up.

But this game is plagued by many of the problems that Sega GT 2002 had; poor/confusing menus, mediocre graphics & now a half-hearted attempt at online play.

Pros:
- All the things you love about Sega GT 2002: arcade-style racing, career mode, & lots of cars (about 40 additional cars added 4 GT Online)
- The online race modes include two truly unique styles: team battle (a relay race where each player races 4 1 lap) & navigate (a blind man's race, where the co-pilot must indicate 2 the driver upcoming turns & competitor's moves).
- You can trade cars, parts & even cash with other players online!
- Three new offline challenge games (gathering, time attack & chronicle).

Cons (just focused on the improvements from 2002):

- Three words: Lag, lag, lag.

- Although the game is supposed 2 transfer SegaGT 2002 saved data 2 access customized cars from last year's game, I couldn't get it 2 work.

- Online matches are tough 2 join, if you try 2 enter a room that has a race already in progress, it pushes you back out 2 the main menu.

- In online play, when the 1st place car runs across the finish line, the game ends 4 everyone.

For the price, a die-hard racing fan can't really resist this game. Plus, with 2 months free Xbox Live subscription, (for new users only) this game almost pays 4 itself! So when it comes right down 2 it, this game is well worth what you paid for, but you should expect some inconveniences. Finally if you don't already own Sega GT 2002, you should certainly add this game 2 your collection since it is included in GT Online!
