  • They’re totally different games. Also depends if you’re referring to the series as a whole or the first game in the series.

    One is a sim racer that came late in the consoles life, so it took better advantage of the hardware, bigger budget, so more content, etc.

    The other is a port of an arcade game. Its a launch title, with very, very limited content.

    For me, I get tired of Ridge Racer after playing it for a sitting. GT is the kind of game I can sit and play over the course of a few sittings and try and unlock cars and see more of the game.

    But now if you’re talking about the series as a whole, then were talking about R4. I could play that all day. I much prefer the arcade style racing to the sim style of Gran Turismo.

    Regardless, I think you could say racing game enthusiasts were eating good on the Playstation back in the day.
