Jezza did Laguna Seca in a Honda NSX on gran Tourismo and set a 1 min 41 sec lap.
He then did the real thing in the real thing and scared himself silly getting down to 1 min 57 sec.
His track coach pointed out a few differences between the game and reality, like no NSX could pull 160 k's in a certain part of the track, nor could it brake like the virtual car.
And you don't shit yourself entering the corkscrew while sitting on your couch.

very true. Also, if I hit the corkscrew at 250kph in the Viper, it'd do more than just bounce a foot and roll down the hill

You couldn't get near the times a 12 yr old kid can do on Playstation WRC - but he couldn't drive a car out the gate......I can all give the impression I'm 22,muscular and good looking,can afford 7 new bikes and ride like a MotoGP rider.....in real life one of those is a lie.

And you don't shit yourself entering the corkscrew while sitting on your couch.I liked the bit (Same episode, maybe, can't remember proper) where the boy racer's 3L V6 Peugeot 306 was took more time than an Austin Sprite on the hillclimb track. That was great.

based on this review, i think i'm going to buy it:

Gamekult.com : 6.0 Press review (7) : 5.9 The opinion of the players: --


You played play? Deliver your opinion!

Platform: PlayStation 2 (PS2)

Honest
Bad
The opinion of Hosteel & Boone : After first Riding Spirits intended for a very targeted public, this second opus appears him more accessible to the great number even if it will always be necessary to show a control maturely worked with neat curves and strongly anticipated approaches. The catch in hand, delicate, will still push back the least keen, completed by rather slow beginnings and a deplorable visual realization. However, once passed in addition to, Riding Spirits II could fill well impassioned of two wheels with its broad park of bikes under licences and its direction of the customisation pushed, as well on the level of the appearance of the performances. To crown the whole, Spike Co. knew to equip its new one lifespan old foal than imposing led more by championships to the changeable restrictions on wish. In short, Riding Spirits II incarne one of these plays not to be put between all the hands and that one will be able to appreciate, for lack of real competition

RS2 (riding spirits 2) may not be the best looking game and it has it's flaws like any other, But I enjoy it :)

Best game I've seen with market bikes, about 330 or something to ride :2thumbsup

Also, I'm hooked on 'Sea Dogs' at the moment, just a cheap $10 game lol, but heaps of fun, like ur a pirate and u can choose who to work for, and u take ships as prizes and yeah with my 'pirates of the carribean' soundtrack on it's wicked gig :doobey:
