also you know it's bad when the entirely e-sports focused GT Sport has a better single player campaign than the one that was touted as "Gran Turismo is back, we're returning to the series' roots on this one" during promotion (*cough* GT7 *cough*)

The E-Sports Era: 2017-present, from GT Sport to where we're currently at with GT7. MUCH more linear singleplayer game design, menus focus more on superficial weird shit that doesn't matter like..... cafés? singleplayer overall takes a HUGE backseat to the online experience. still fun but not good.

The "Premium Experience" Era - 2004-2015, from GT4 to GT6's final update. characterized by more laid back jazz/lounge music, brighter menus in GT4 and Frutiger Aero menus in GT5/6, an overall classier vibe, more realistic physics, more real-world circuits, and slightly less open-ended game design

The Classic Era - 1997-2002, from GT1 to GT Concept. characterized by flashy and energetic music, super grippy handling, open-ended game design, and orange all over the place.

here's the video of the aftermath while he was walking away after assaulting me
March 13, 2025 at 6:47 PM
this man is 61, by the way. a 61 year old politician and elected MP assaulted a civilian over that civilian just being a halfway decent fucking person.

this all happened in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada between 2:55PM and 3:05PM Atlantic time on March 12, 2025

all of this happened, btw, just because i DON'T support the needless slaughter and bombing of Palestinians. and Wayne Long has been enthusiastically helping bomb these people while gleefully calling anybody that's against this genocide "terrorists"
March 13, 2025 at 6:47 PM
because I wasn't expecting any of this, i obviously couldn't take a video of the actual incident. that being said, i DO have a video of the aftermath where im calling him out as he's walking away
March 13, 2025 at 6:47 PM
i turned around and it was Wayne Long himself, an elected MP, that had assaulted me.

not only did he assault me, he waited until my back was turned to do it.

that's coward shit.

as i was facing him, he just kept storming and talking, then he eventually turned around to go back to where he was walking. so i turned around to walk away and go back to where i was going, when suddenly i heard footsteps behind me and then felt a knee hit my buttocks. yes. my literal buttocks.
March 13, 2025 at 6:47 PM
after realizing i accidentally held the door open for a known zionist genocide-supporter, i told him i know exactly who he is and that he's a genocidal piece of shit.

to which he then began storming at me in an intimidating manner while angrily screaming at me thru gritted teeth to get the fuck out
March 13, 2025 at 6:47 PM
i unfortunately did not get video of the assault as I didn't see it coming. i was holding the door for people walking thru and because I'm nearsighted I didn't recognize Mr. Long's face until he got directly in front of me.

all of that, combined with Sony rushing them to get GT2 out for the holiday 1999 season, is what contributed to the bugginess of the game. it wasn't JUST the rush, there were plenty of other factors involved.

people forget that in the earliest parts of GT2's development, PD was also working on GT1's english localization, drafting concepts for GT3, were knee-deep in the development of Omega Boost, AND were completely restructuring from a small internal Sony dev team to an actual company of their own
