I went out and bought a Gran Turismo Edition Playstation 2. Let me tell you, Grant Turismo 3 is awesome. They have the SLK 230, CLK 55, CL 600, and CLK DTM. You can fully tune up any car you buy, and adjust every aspect of it. It is super realistic and extremely addicting! I suggest all mercedes owners go out and buy this package, it was about $250, not that expensive and it was well worth it. I never play games, but this is just amazing. I love being able to buy the CLK 55 and tune it up, or do an endurance race at Laguna Seca with a CLK DTM.

GT3 is the best racing game out. Its a great game and a BIG improvment over GT2.

Where did you get it for $250,-?

I already have PS2 with GT3 (absolutely love it) but my friend is looking to buy a PS2 so he can practice his GT3 skills. Where were you able to buy PS2 for $250,-. All places I've seen on and off-line sell it for $300,- (excl GT3) and about $330,- including GT3. I thought Sony had set fixed pricing at 299,-

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Ron

I bought mine at Best Buy, it was the GT3 Special Edition PS2, not a PS2 with GT3 seperately.

Thanks.

Are there any good PS2 emulators (WIN XP) out there? I don't really want to spend the money for a system, just to play one game. Any Counter-strike fans out there?

I don't even want to confess how many hours of my life I've poured into that dangerously addictive game. Here's the key. Buy yourself a Ruf RGT and put a stage 4 turbo on it. With other mods, you'll get up to ~1050 hp and run the 1/4 mile in 9.1 sec. The Zonda C12S is fun, too. You can tweak the normally aspirated AMG V12 in it for ~1080 hp.

I've got a sharkport game save for GT3 with every car (including all F1 racers) and almost 100% completion if anyone is interested.
