    2:29 - What's interesting is the NSX "L421 WMR" was registered up until 1st of September 1997 in the UK. Being an L reg, it was likly registered in ~1993. It also is listed as "white", but the photo makes it look more red/orange in colour. The last V5C Logbook issued was on 20th September 1996. Very stange. May have been exported or got written off.

      i´m sure, if they asked Polyphony/Sony, they had the answer a lot earlier. Most of these pictures are from the Motor-Companys itself. I think they asked the press agency for it and bacame the same pictures like magazines in this time.

  • @C.I...
    @C.I... 10 месяцев назад +27

    "Funky '90s effects"
    I would guess it's just Polyphony reducing the colour depth of the texture so the dealership screen would load quicker. Maybe combined with the capture method they used to create the texture having poor quality.

    • @pez2k
      @pez2k 10 месяцев назад +7

      Yep, all of the GT mode menus in GT1 are limited to 16 colours per screen, including all of the common buttons, credits icon, and so on. That's also why a lot of the car thumbnails on the new car lists are in similar colours - even at 2 colours each, with up to 8 cars per screen there wouldn't be enough left for the buttons etc.
      For GT2 they upgraded to a much more complex system involving a 256-colour background image, and a tiled foreground with 16-colour palettes shared between tiles. For example, a main dealership page is largely a background image, with the interactable elements like buttons being on the foreground layer. Only the foreground layer is localised, which is why the text describing the brand whose dealership it is is always in English, baked into the background image.

    @jdmsnowmonkey7913 10 месяцев назад +29

    The photo that intrigues me the most here is undoubtedly the NSX at 2:09, and not just for its faintly ominous vibe. The car seems to have a UK number plate, L421 WMR, which denotes a 1994 registration year. However, when I looked up the number plate on the DVLA, it did recognise it as belonging to a Honda, but strangely, it marked it as White in colour, not Red. I think the racetrack shown in the photo is the Nurburgring, so I'm particularly curious as to the origins of the image itself, now that the source used by Polyphony has been found.

    • @mattteee2973
      @mattteee2973 10 месяцев назад +8

      I'd put money on it having being owned by Honda UK. Its not unusual for lone press cars or late development cars to linger on well past the end of commercial sales. I used to see Honda using a battered '01+ NSX for driver training regularly, but I think the poor buggers replaced it with a Civic type R.

      look up some early 90's Japanese tv adverts for cars, they're overwhelmingly European themed.

It means that your car has got checked for technical issues every 2 year. And lower one was for "AU" and its meaning is, your car-exhaust was checked and is ok. "was" means, we don´t have it anymore, beacause it is now included with the HU/TÜV.

    Feels like Subaru intentionally surrounded its Legacy with German cars.
    "Look, why get a German car when you can have our Legacy?"

    Thanks for this Matt, been watching mostly the GT1 stuff for nostalgia. Quick question for you specifically or anyone reading this then.. since we’re on the topic of where the images came from or originated.. where did the cover from GT1 come from? What car is it?

    Want to have your mind blown?
    Go listen to the Star Control 2 soundtrack. The Gran Turismo version you're displaying here used a lot of it for inspiration, and flat out copied some of it.

    • @MattJ155
      @MattJ155  10 месяцев назад

      Oh, wow, thanks for letting me know about this! Which tracks would you recommend listening to in particular?

    • @TomatoFettuccini
      @TomatoFettuccini 10 месяцев назад

      @55 Here's the whole soundtrack. Might as well listen to all of it as most of the tracks are between 1 1/2 -2 1/2 minutes, and all the music is great if a bit repetitive (it IS supposed to be background music). When the SC2 remaster was done some years back a call went out to the community for music for the game, and IIRC, they took the original midi tracks and made them with real instruments and sent them to the remaster devs. IIRC, the original music was sourced in a similar fashion but it was all original music, each track from a different artist.
      I could be wrong about GT taking the actual music, but so much of GTs music sounds like at least a few of the SC2 tracks.
      I also recommend giving Star Control 2 a go if you're into retro gaming. It's one of the best scifi adventure rpgs ever made and heavily inspired Mass Effect. Be warned though; you WILL need an external notebook. There is a lot of information you need to remember, and you need something to keep track of where various resources are located, and there is no in-game journal. BBest part of it is that the game is freeware; the original devs, Toys for Bob, made it so years ago.

    I think I see a pattern here. One or two guys that happen to be serious sports-car-BROCHURE COLLECTORS. They made a deal they would leak photos more or less annually one by one, causing us all to go 😮woooaaahhh 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
