Gran Turismo 2 was one of the best racing games of the era. One of the best PS1 games. One of the best games ever. It's time to take it for a spin and buff up the graphic as much as it can go. I'm quite pleased. Now the game looks like it looked in my mind while I was playing it 22 years ago.
This is what you get when you try to push Duckstation capabilities to the max: 8MB RAM dev console, overclocking the console rate, upscale to 4K, using all the geometry correction without causing much trouble, fixing texture warping, using widescreen 2.0 and 60 FPS and also improving drawing distance as well as keeping level of details on other cars.The rest is just the limitation of the way the source code of the game was written.
If Audio RAM could be bigger, it would be possible to add real car sounds even to opponent cars. But it is what it is.
Come to think of it, GT2 now looks like GT1 Hi Fi mode (high resolution mode, 45 FPS etc etc) or maybe it looks like proto PS2 title. Anyone remembers GT2000?
