Gran Turismo 4 has this pretty neat feature...

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yeah - I didn't even think of that! Good idea!

Yes you can... you can just move the car out of view and take shots. There's Vegas, New York, deserts, etc. - Lots of 3D locations!

Well, I know what I'm doing tonight now... [img]wink.gif[/img]

P.S. You can also adjust the front tire angle for your shots too...

Just wondering, but do they make any video games anymore that you can just, y'know...play?

GT4 has a Logitech force feedback steering wheel and pedals which retial for $150 but it's $112 at amazon.com

The steering wheel setup is what puts GT4 over the top...I haven't plugged it in yet, but the reviews say it really puts you in the car. BTW the wheel is made specifically for GT4.

GT4 also supports 10801 HD!!!!! and 5.1 digital surround...

I've had the setup for 3 days with ZERO time to even try it out....but today that will change!!

It plays awesome - best driving game ever... and yeah, I really really want that force feedback wheel... but too much $ for now, even on sale.

I wish I had a TV or surround system to support the other fine features GT4 has... but not quite yet....
