The Evolution That is GRAN TURISMO
« on: April 21, 2001, 08:07:59 PM »


This is the first EVER CG render for GT2000. This is what Polyphony envisioned the game to look like (this is before pre production). PIC RELEASED OCT 1998





The days of GT2000 were short. PICS RELEASED 11th JUL 2000





GT2000 is coming along... slowly... PICS RELEASED 21st JULY 2000





Anti Alaising is FINALLY inputed into the game. Makes a BIG difference. The game has now been re-named to GT3. PICS RELEASED 24th OCT 2000





GT3 comes along nicely. PICS RELEASED 12th DEC 2000





Can anyone say RALLY??? PICS RELEASED 22nd JAN 2001




GT3 is now in full swing, and POLYPHONY announced to the world that GT3 would be the FIRST GT to include REAL TIME WEATHER EFFECTS! PICS RELEASED JAN 24th 2001





THIS GAME LOOKS HOT!!! PICS RELEASED 30th MAR 2001




I CAN\'T WAIT TILL 28/04/2001

What are you going to have to talk about once this game has been out a month or so?  Oh wait, there\'s always GT4.  Thank God!!!

The month of May is going to suck.  What a lame month.  I wish we could just skip it.

Cheers ##RaCeR##,
That must have taken a heck of a long time to find all those pics from different times in the game\'s development. Great post - thanks!

May is going rock.
Look at the IGN release calendar.
Red Faction and Commandos 2.
Thats two good games I can just remember off the top of my head.

Isn\'t that first pic from the demo they had when the PS2 was announced?

Its the pic they showed at the unvailing of PS2. It is what they hoped the \'final\' product to look like. It is purely FVM.

The picture showing the weather effects looks great, except for the jaggies on the hood of the car.  Awesome, I can\'t wait!  Is that actual game footage or CG.  It looks incredible.  I have Test Drive Lemans for Dreamcast which has cool weather effects.  This game looks like it will top it!  The wet road looks amazing.

Those last two pics are new to me.  They look awesome!  Do you know what course they are from?  

Man, GT2000 really has come a long way since it was first anounced.  I can\'t wait to play it.

It wasn\'t FMV because they were playing it.  Editors from magazines and websites also got to play it.
