Gran Turismo 4 will feature more than 5,000 polygons per vehicle capturing unprecedented detail right down to the disk brakes behind the wheel. A totally rebuilt physics engine will allow for a higher level of realism in cars, which allows for cars to be handled easier.

Gran Turismo 4 will feature up to 100 tracks including the Grand Canyon, Nurburgring, Fuji Speedway, Hong Kong and New York City. Up to 500 cars will be featured. Ranging from vintage models to modern cars seen around today.



New information was also released about new game modes added to Gran Turismo 4. A new mode titled GT Photo Mode will allow players to travel around the globe with their cars and conduct photo sessions in various popular locations that include Piazza San Marco and Sagano. Players can save the photos to memory card or print them with an attached colour USB printer.

GT Online Mode will allow up to 6 players to race head-to-head. Online mode includes chat functionality and an in-depth menu screen which allows for gamers to build online communities.

I'm loving the idea of GT Photo Mode where you travel around the world practically showing off your ride. icon_biggrin.gif Online should be a great addition too. Unfortunately I see no mention of Ferraris yet... icon_sad.gif

I know. icon_sad.gif icon_evil.gif
But apparently Yamauchi has said he's willing to delay the game if he can snab the Ferrari license after it expires for EA, which is by year's end. icon_biggrin.gif

i don't see it happening, since EA have the option of a continuance, and i seriously doubt thats a licence they'll willingly allow to expire...

because you know how they've been using to such a high standard...

that said i hope it does go to polyphony...
