Software Reviews of GT Legends
Customer Review: can we have some aussie cars for once
Summary: 4 Stars
Thats really my only complaint with this game , every time you buy a racing game the cars all seem to be the same . Being in Australia , we had our own fast cars , the Falcon GTHO Phase 111, the HK Monaro GTS and who could forget the Torana GTR/XU1 , Ok this might mean nothing to someone over in the USA or England . But they where supercars in their day ,that said its still a great game for all petrol heads old and young a likeCustomer Review: do have plenty of time?

I love GTR, its awsome and I still play it, even after buying GTL. GTL has nice graphics and sound and the simulation feels good (but a 65 mustang is VERY different than a Saleen GT car), just like GTR.
So why do I play GTR then? Because GLT requires you to unlock cars and tracks, like most silly console games. Being a "gearhead" myself I barely have enough time to play games at all, so spending hours to unlock the features isnt an option. When you start the game, you have access to about 3/90 cars. I emailed SimBin about this, but like other reviewers, have received no responce.
Who in SimBin's marketing department thought that race car simulation players (who adjust spring rates and torsion settings for FUN) want "leveling" in thier games?!?
Customer Review: A top notch racing game!
Summary: 4 Stars
At last, a company that can put out serious racing games like the now-defunct Papyrus (Grand Prix Legends, Nascar Racing 2003). This game and GTR, also put out by SimBin, will keep PC gearheads busy with endless tweaking abilities, online racing and endless challenges that never get old. It is also easy to get into as a novice in the rookie mode, while the Papyrus games had a punishing learning curve. Heck, my 6 year old loves this game! I though I wound never see a good PC racing game again, seeing that they will never be "blockbusters" like Doom, etc. and make loads of money.
I too was concerned with the "Starforce" copy protection, but, after 3 months of use, I have had no hardware/software problems, although I hate swapping discs in and out of the CD drive. I can't find a no CD patch for this one.
My rig runs this nicely at 12x7, 32 bit, 2x antialiasing. DX9 mode.
3ghz P4, nvidia 6600GT (128MB video ram) 1 ghz ram.
Customer Review: Great Game, SimBin better Patch it!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
While a great game, with superior graphics and physics, the game has its faults.
After multiple calls and emails to it's creators with no response. I am doubtful they will release an update. :( (I'm thinking they are pre-occupied with their next release GTR 2.)
Wonderful Game. I'd buy it again. However I'm sad because it lacks support in any form.
Customer Review: poor frame rates without very new high end computer
Summary: 1 Stars
I have a Athon 1.3 gig and radeon 9800 video card and have to turn off most of the video details. Even then the program is not very stable and jerky frame rates make this game a chore or should I say a bore to drive. The game will not run at 800X600. If you have one of those Alienware $2500 computers you may enjoy it but unless your ready to fork out big bucks for a new system don't waste your money on this game.
