    John, you'll have to ask Lou where he got his info. from about the release of GT4 next Monday?

    I'm baffled myself because the info I have is that it won't be release until mid December.

    John, of course you can drive. Just remember, you're buying me the games right?

    GT4 isn't till mid december. There isn't even a set DATE yet, so don't hold your breath. I have some inside info.;)

    Also for the other games, just rent them with a special ps2/xbox and everything is good.

    GT4 is mid-December. Was supposed to be November but it was bumped back. I give it 80% that it'll go in December and not be delayed again. I've had it reserved for only like a thousand years. I'm pretty sure I'm first on the list at that particular GameStop.

    NFSU wasn't very good. It was pretty to look at but I enjoyed the supercars a lot more than the eye-candy cars. I still pull out Hot Pursuit 2, I just wish there were more tracks for it.

    I never really liked Halo or HL or UT. The only FPS I like are the Clancy ones. There is a new version of Ghost Recon due out soon that I'm interested in. I'm looking forward to that and the next Battlefied installment.

    Speaking of video games, anyone pick up San Andreas? It was out Monday. I have it but am waiting until the weekend when I have time to actually sit down and get used to the game. I also picked up Ace Combat 5; the last one was gorgeous and a lot of fun so I'm hoping this will be the same.

    3 people in here has concure to a mid Dec. release of some sort for GT4... Now Lou, if I were you, I'd smack that gamestop or gameshop who ever told ya it's coming this Monday or the next or the next... it won't be here until mid to late December.

    Just a FYI just so you all know... GT4 will not have ONLINE PLAY as first hyped... Sony ran into some problem and it WILL NOT BE INCLUDED with the release... maybe down the line they may have an add-on CD type for online play.

    The problem with the Xboxes that give the disc read errors is the dvd drive it self, they are some french made crap drives from a manufacturer named Thompson, the new drives are made by Samsung and are way more reliable. You can go here http://www.llamma.com/xbox/ and get a replacement drive and some other cool goodies for your box.

    Juiced has alot more racing to it, and it isn't quite as ricey. It isn't along the lines of the gt series, but it isn't the bling bling of the nfs series.

    I only play Halo for the MP, so I won't get Halo 2 because I am satisfied for now. I have HL2 preloaded via Steam right now, just waiting for them to unlock. NFS2 should be called rice dreams 2. I played the demo the other day and was very dissapointed. The graphics seemed to have gotten worse if that is possible, and they have given rice a whole new definition. Well, there is my $0.02

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...............


    TOKYO--Sony Computer Entertainment has announced that the Gran Turismo 4 release date has moved from December 3 to December 28. The company explains that the game had some unexpected tuning requirements that held up its release. Making the adjustments will cause the game to miss its previously allotted ship date.
    Stateside, Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) announced a new ship date for US gamers. Gran Turismo 4 moves from a ship date of December 14 to a ship date sometime in the January-to-March window of next year.
    In a statement, SCEA said: "Natural challenges with finalizing all the key features and localization issues across worldwide territories have led to the difficult choice of pushing back the release date in order to ensure that Gran Turismo 4 lives up to the exacting standards of the 36 million-plus fans worldwide that have purchased previous versions" [of the franchise].
