Underrated aspects of this game: the menus SOUNDS man. You heard them all the time and you could never grow tired of them. They had the perfect user experience. Sounds that clearly meant navigating through, accept and cancel. One of the best menu sounds i have ever heard in videogames
It’s weird how everything fit together perfectly,, I’ve never seen any other game do that other than winning eleven series + need for speed only the ones ps2 and GranTurismo 1 to 4 .
@@h.m.morgan1992 yup. Plays great on PS3. Though with the HD cord it's VERY pixelated, and the smoothing filter option over blurrs it. I recommend using a PS1/PS2 av cable, there's a plug for it on the PS3. Once you plug in that cord and unplug the HDMI, power up but hold down the power button 5 seconds and then wait and it will adjust to the old school resolution and start up. Then adjust TV ratio so its not stretched. And presto, looks like PS1.
I was an 8-year-old child when I used to play this game everyday. Honestly I could say this were the good old days. No responsibilities, just pure gaming. And I’m writing this as a 30-year-old man🥴😩 Time certainly flies!
same here! I just turned 30 on the 19th of May. Spent endless hours on this game as a kid, even though I didn't fully understand what all the options en settings meant :p Good memories
This game popped up in my head out of nowhere 20 years later. So much nostalgia. Spent some much time on this. Hearing the main menu music gives me so much joy.
GT 2 is on my top 5 list for Best Soundtracks ever. I haven’t played this since it released, and now I can remember one of the reasons why I loved it so much.
Gran Turismo 2 isn't just any sequel. This is a true sequel to the first Gran Turismo with so many new tracks and includes over 600 cars to drive. Polyphony Digital did such a fantastic job making a realistic driving game that pushed the PS1 hardware to the limits. It doesn't get any better than this. 😄
Bought all of the Gran Turismos and just finished Gran Turismo 1. Now I'm playing Gran Turismo 2. I'm learning so much! I did not know what FF, FR, MR & 4WD was until I played and was researching things as I was playing like meaning to words and such.
this game will never die ever i want to do it again nearly completed it on the week of its release back then i loved using lupo on it man that had some go in it
Yes Suzuki Escudo! I remember just how I excited I was when I first tested it. I spent hours modding it until I got the exact parameters that squeezed a few more km/h. Such a great game.
Nostalgia. Remember from when the first game came out, this really was an improvement. I actually managed to get 97% complete in this game. One thing I do feel disappointed is in the beta, the menu sound effects were like the original game and were more epic than in the final.
this game and number1 is the reason why i became so good at racing games in general. i always went for gold licences because they gave you a car at for getting gold!
Thank you for taking me back to the best days with my best game. I have finished the game more than 4 times and that track has 99 laps and took about 1:30 to play.😅
mano, incrivel como esse jogo pode me surpreender hoje? cada detalhe, cada frase do jogo é especial. quando vc vai tunar o carro tem a explicação em cada pagina.... eu tô triste por nao ter jogos assim hoje.
The early Gran Turismo games had a much greater feeling of speed to them, less of a simulator more of an arcade racer, still realistic enough to make you think/worry about your speed at certain corners etc, but I loved the way the cars handled in GT2 was a real knack to driving the different FF, FR, MR and 4WD cars.
Me and my brother adored this game back in the day. We had tons of fun playing until, unfortunately, our copy got scratched and never worked again. We tried for years to find a copy back then but we were unsuccessful because of how rare it was. It probably so rare because it wasn't that popular in where I lived.
Games were so simple back than. Now they want everything super mega ultra extra realistic and with a plot. I miss the simple stuff of the 90's... I might buy a PS2 and all the GT games 1,2,3,4.
I’m not sure if anyone else has noticed the effort that went into the fonts for each make/model. I think it was a crucial detail for the game as it expressed each car’s uniqueness. Unfortunately this hasn’t been seen ever since :(
That's the main reason I absolutely love this game, it has pretty much every JDM car going. One's that do awful on track but they still added it. The used car sections hide so many awesome 80s/90s cars that get completely shadowed.
Was alot of money invested in the making of this game, says real life driving simulator in it for a reason, it is just that good!! ; D Side note, I always start off with a good used Nissan Skyline that uses turbo instead, not quite as good with the front wheel drive stuff myself : )
1:45 that music is something ill whistle today. Such a great game. My dad played 1, and thats thats what got me hooked. Played all but the demo's and 7 so far

A lot of games in the 90's and early 2000's had these kinda sounds - Sonic, King of Fighters, Wave Race, you name it. Miss it a lot too.
Right there with you
Probably the best Gran Turismo ever made.
2002 geneva was best for me
2001 GT3 was the best, only problem was the amount of cars :/
GT4 for me
GT 6 for me is the best
GT4 is the best for now, GT7 will probably be the best in 2-3 years
Miss this game soo much, brings back so much memories, want to go back to these days
you cam play it at your mobile using an emulator.
£22 discounted grade ps1 at cex.
I've got this game from amazon for my ps3 which thankfully still works.

The one video game that changed my life forever.

How?
Metal Gear solid also
@Wesson Parker you're right - no one gives a shit really.

Yes! Back then I was 10 years old. Past week I got 32 years old. Gran Turismo 2 will always be the best car racer video game!

The sounds just bring back so many memories
Who else agrees with me that Gran Turismo 2 on the PlayStation 1 is an awesome racing game ever made?
Yes
Gran turismo 4 is the greatest racing simulator of all time.
They made it too early I think, should have merged it with 3
One of my favorites of all time.
@@HavenMarches I stoped playing Forza Motorsport 7 and Forza Horizon 4 in 4k and start to play Gran Turismo 4 all over again, I agree with you mate.
I can’t believe it’s been 20 years
It's insane how much nostalgia you can get of this Video

Same.. I juts bought a PS1 and this game lol

I love this game too
This is on the same level as Persona 5 or vice versa if going by age. Absolutely funky and full of character.
The sound of the turbo kicking in on the Skyline
Nissan Skyline GTS4 R32J was my go to starter car in GT2. Loved this game so much as a kid. Thanks for the nostalgia 🤟
This music is bangin
Astrason-d'everest Museum for Learning hehe I have the PAL version too
@@cirnoqa46 The PAL intro is so good!
It's the best one in my opinion.
Everything flows together so nicely... 👌
From since i was 7 years old playing GT1 till GT4 when i got older. 4 of them is my childhood and the best racing game i have ever been played.

I love modern games but I still play this fantastic game in december 2019
My all time favorite GT game , hopefully GT7 has some of its vibes and that beautiful music
Oh man this music brings back seriously good memories. Desperate for school to finish to come home and play this. One of my favs
I would come home to my 4 year old brother having accidentally deleted all the data from my memory card 😩😄
@@asino1387wow remember memory cards im really nostalgic now
@@asino1387 my oldest brother wouldn’t Allow us to play career mode so we had to sit n watch him play

Spent a whole week to make one 1 milion to buy it .. it worthed it .. oo god those where the best days 😔😌
good memories as a 13 year old playing this back when it released, thank you

Wow... I remember thinking the graphics looked almost real! I love this game, feeling super nostalgic.
this game was for sure way ahead of its time 💙💙

A playthrough without commentary is always better!

9:49 what is this song? Been looking for it everywhere, one of my favourites, takes me back to being a kid playing this with GT2

Nissan sells cheap af, fast af cars in this game.
I remember playing it foe so many hours .. Even remembered sitin at My moms house playing it .. wow ... ;)
