The current status of your copy of GT3.

Well, reflecting back now and looking at my small collection of PS1 and 2 games, my eyes always somehow seem to skip this one title, Gran Turismo 3 A-spec. It's been forever and a day since I last put this game into my console, but each time I glance over it in search of other stuff to play, images of having a great summer 3 years ago quickly race across my mind.

It's a known fact I'm never going to pop that game back in, but for some reason I don't want to trade it in (for like what $1 credit at EB?) so I just keep it for keepsakes and a memento of the good old PS2 days; the days I thought, this must be the future of gaming 3 years ago. Thinking about it now, GT3 was the only PS2 game I had for over 2 months, so basically, I was racing around each track God knows how many times for the endurance races, since there wasn't really anything more interesting to do in my house during that time (yes I live a boring life).

Now whenever I'm at Bestbuy or Walmart or whatever, I just chuckle when I still see that game selling for $19.99. I guess it's just a reflection of back then how much I enjoyed it but now it's sitting back collecting dust. I'm not sad about it or anything, but I did enjoy it. And for sure I'm no where near done, but I've just giving it the "retired" status.

What has happened to your copy of Gran Turismo 3, as since it was a launch title, I'm guessing quite a few first wave PS2 gamers picked it up pretty much for the damn good graphics for back then. Vote in the poll and discuss if you have any recollection or emotions when you did enjoy or not enjoy this game.

EDIT: God damn, it timed out and I couldn't get the poll in.

At any rate, it consisted of the following:

1) What, I still play this everyday

2) I let this sit back in the shelf to collect dust and to never touch the damn thing again

3) I've let this sit back long enough and play it for the hell of it

4) I sold my copy

5) I never bought it

6) I traded it for another game

7) I lost my copy

8) I gave it away

9) I use it as a beverage coaster

10) Real people play GTA:3 to SA.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

When was this and how much for, if I may ask.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

So I hear when you unlock all your licenses, you can have sex with the hookers in your F1 car and Subaru Imprezza WRX. It's great, because the graphics back then were top notch for cars. People should look as great, right?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

It's funny how my local Wal-marts/Best Buys and the like are still selling it for $19.99 to $24.99. Rows and rows of them. Again, I just give a brief chuckle. So many unloved games that will never find a home. I'm actually really curious at how much my local EB games will give me credit for. I bet the guy will be like "... umm....eerrr...sorry, not in my system, we don't take that one anymore".

I should give that phone call a go sometime, just for kicks.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

So I suppose you're going to go with option # 9 come Monday night football. Cause ya know, trying to sell it now or trade it in would be a total writeoff (of a gigantic sum of $2.99).

I was speaking idiomatically.
