General
Information
While the initial Sega GT wasn’t able to outshine
the Gran Turismo series, it did give gamers a chance to see just how
Sega would handle a more sim-based GT title. Even though the title was technical
in nature, it did feature a slight hint of arcade control that made it a bit more
forgiving and gave it that little Sega feel that Dreamcast owners appreciated.
However, there were issues with just that, some wanted a hard-line sim, and there
were many complaints that the game lacked a sensation of speed.
Looking
to up the ante, address the issues of the original, and give the Xbox its first,
and more importantly, a solid GT title, Sega is set to release Sega GT 2002.
Foregoing the traditional line-up of cars, Sega is hoping to set GT 2002
apart from the pack by having classic cars from the 60’s to the 80’s.
With around 125 cars and various play modes, it looks as though the critics of
the first will be silenced as the Sega magic will, yet again, take hold of the
Xbox.
