Saturns in Gran Turismo 4?

There's a posiblity that there might be saturns in Gran Turismo 4. I was looking through PS2 games sites and found this. It's listed under the July 14, 2001 news. Here's the site http://techno-mania-studio.virtualav...list/main.html It would be badass to be playing Gran Turismo and be able to tune up a saturn that looks like your own.

We got more submissions, keep it going and keep telling your friends (If you have any due to playing Gran Turismo 3 A-spec so long!

).

Also, I e-mailed Saturn, Porsche, Lamborghini and Saab (I couldn't find a way to e-mail Ferrari, if you do contact them.) on considering to let Polyphony Digital have a license to produce their cars for Gran Turismo 4. You guys should do the same with the car manufacturers you want. I hope you guys appreciate the effort.

I wonder why Porsche and Lamborghini haven't responded? Hmmm.....

Results: Saturn contacted me saying that they will forward the e-mail to higher authorities for review. Saab also sent a similar message, but Porsche and Lamborghini both didn't contact me yet; it's been about 3 weeks. I'll let you know if I get any positive or negative news if it is certain that they will be included or not.

Here is what I sent Saturn:

"The developer of Gran Turismo 3 A-spec game said if you want to have a specific car manufacturer in the game, ask the car manufacturer directly. So I'm asking for you to let Polyphony Digital acquire a license to produce your cars in 3D. Did you see the graphics GT3 has? You can advertise your cars with it. Let people know more about, etc. This game is very popular and reaches many audiences. We are thinking of buying a Saturn and took a test drive in one and I wanted to race it in GT3, since I, myself can't do that in real life. At, least now. I'm eager to drive in the virtual world with your Saturn cars, especially the 3-door coupe."

This is what I got back from Saturn:

"Dear Wilbert, Thanks for writing Saturn! I have documented your suggestion and forwarded it to Saturn's leadership. Thanks for the feedback, Wilbert, and please let us know if we can assist you with anything in the future.

Thanks again,

Alright, I'm already addicted to GT3.....if they put Saturns in GT4....forget it.....LOL. I wonder what kinds of modifications they'll have for the cars in GT4.

I'd say tha'ts a pretty decent feedback letter from them, considering you got a response. Let's keep our fingers crossed that they allow it.

Ill buy a freakin game console if i can drive an L300 (6 speed manual, turbo, s/c, etc mods) or an SC2.....hell, why not the ION or VUE?

URtalking2CRASH · 09-07-2002, 02:43 AM

yeah i agree L300 I'd prolly end up buying a PS2 just to play the game, damn I bought my ex one when we first went out so I guess it's about high time i bought myself one.

I have one, and I'm buyin another for my car....LOL. People will know where to find me when that game comes out, while on lunch break at work.

I don't have a play station but if they put a Saturn in GT4 I'm buying the game and the friggin console just so I can play that game. Now that would be sweeeeeet.

Anyone who does not have a PS2 I recomend buying one, I love mine. As far as the saturn in GT4 has anyone contacted the company that maes the game? If interest is shown I'm sure they will look into it.

CelticShadow · 09-07-2002, 04:17 PM

Let's just hope Saturn corp will agree to letting the car in the game!

I dont think saturn is the bigest problem, if the game designer doesnt think there is much interest they wont even try to use the car in the game.If they wanted it they could probably get it, they have other GM cars in the game.
