Anyway, anyone else heard of Enthusia for the PS2? I've been following it's development for quite sometime and it's now only 2 weeks away from a Japanese release.

If you don't know much about this game, visit the Konami website where you can see some screenshots of the game and view the tracks. There are about 30 tracks and about 300 cars...

Now then, you're probably wondering why you should buy this if you've got GT4. Well there's a very good reason... physics! If you're a GTR or GPL player, you'll know how arcadey GT4 feels, Enthusia is a full on SIM game that needs some careful control input to stay on the track. I played it for about an hour at the Tokyo Game Show last September and I was so impressed by the game that I've been following it ever since.

Right, onto the physics (this video is only reachable from the Japanese version of their website)

Look here and watch the MAX video...

it really shows off the work these guys have been doing to get there game to be as realistic as humanly possible. Can you do that in GT4? No. There are plenty of other movies viewable on the English part of the website so you can see other parts of the game:

Anyway, it's coming to the UK around May/June time.
