Playstation's Abandoned Gran Turismo Spin-off

[@JoCaTen]

As someone coming from Gran Turismo 4, the UI both feels familiar and trippy at the same time. Most things are where you'd expect but the vehicles are bikes...

[@AKK5I]

Wish we got motorocycles as DLC for modern Gran Turismo

[@CrashBandiii]

Imagine the possibilities!

[@TakuHakurei]

Imagine using fastest bike and super confident then get ultra bodied by le man car on Nurburgring

[@JinteiModding]

In some of the old GT HD/Vision Gran Turismo footage from 2006, both Bikes and cars could be seen racing against each other in Tokyo R246

[@Intentionally_Irrelevant]

You spelt "in the base game" wrong

[@jessaphillips2846]

I agree, even if they separated the bikes from the cars just so we could use the bikes on the tracks. A Tourist Trophy DLC pack would be great. It could probably work.

Fun fact: They planned to put bikes to Gran Turismo 5, there's a GT HD E3 2006 footage that shows both bikes and cars race against each other Source: Gran Turismo HD Demo Review by IGN and unitedgamesvideos

FYI - To get the most acceleration from a motorcycle your wheel will inevitably lift, the fine point is just barely off the ground applying the most torque you can without affecting the aerodynamics.

[@IvanovIvanAKrutoi]

I think that "SQUID" sound effect should be the "achievement unlocked" sound in the next version of ProStreet Pepega Mod.

[@phil_zupra_b5880]

You know someone knows nothing about bikes if they don’t even know that bikes have front and rear brakes separate lol Its also better to use the front brakes the most and use both brakes only for when you have to brake hard. Love your content Dustin ✌️

[@MrNukealizer]

I remember renting that as a kid. I had no idea it was made by the same people as Gran Turismo, but one of my first thoughts when playing it was "wow, this looks just like GT4." I looked for it again a couple years later but forgot the name, and oddly "motorcycle game like Gran Turismo 4" didn't find anything about it so I forgot about it till just now.

[@jessaphillips2846]

Tourist Trophy is the reason I got interested in motorcycles, just as Gran Turismo got me interested in cars. You should definitely put some hours into it and possibly move on to the Ride series. It’s surprisingly easy to understand motorcycle history if you are into cars.

[@jessaphillips2846]

Also motard is the term for bikes that are essentially dirt bikes with road tires, the riding style is different because you hold your foot out on the inside instead of putting your knee down. This is done because a dirt bike or motard seat is much higher than a sport bike, naked/standard or cruiser.

[@JSmith19858]

And Riding Spirits. RS2 had a lot more variety than Tourist Trophy

[@multi21racing]

@@jessaphillips2846 The term motard is not really common in German, if anything as part of bike name like the Ducati Hypermotard, which of course only people who know that stuff know. The term used in Germany is Supermoto.

[@Ferrari255GTO]

​@@multi21racing from what i know supermoto is the universal one but the enthusiasts prefer motard, supermoto is the professional category for the bike style/type

44:15 there was a "gentleman agreement" about limiting the speed of street bikes I believe

[@KamisKapi]

Also Japanese manufacturer: Making Blackbird, Hayabusa & H2R

[@mamoruchiba3301]

​@@KamisKapi the Busa was the reason of the unwritten gentleman agreement

[@scr8846]

​@@KamisKapiThe Blackbird didn't go faster than 300 km/h, the Hayabusa was the kickstarter of it and the H2R is a recent bike, on top of a track-only monster.

[@Gearhead221]

Ah yes, the gentleman's agreement and the myth of "The Letter." Nobody knows if the agreement is real, or who (if anyone) made the call to limit speed. All we know is that after the release of the Suzuki Hayabusa, motorcycles were limited to 300km/h. And almost every bike is electronically limited to that magic number to this day.

[@JustMartha07]

Ninja is an icon, dude wasn't ready for the legend XD

[@eddiehimself]

The problem with Tourist Trophy is you have to hold L1 down to duck and it's just an absolute pain doing that for most of a race.

[@whatevermakesyouhappy5932]

Jesus, that sounds awful.

[@krazycharlie]

I have R1 as the tuck button, L1 as back view and select as change camera, Everything else is default and it works just fine for me.

[@GuaranaGH]

It's not a pain if you ride bikes in real life. It's kinda weird tucking in during the straights, but an awesome feeling using the wind as an additional stopping power. Can't really compare it with cars.

[@drmvp21]

You could set it to tuck automatically on straits in settings

[@VanBan_07]

Midnight Club 3 had that too, Choppers of America races were brutal

[@Eggyteevee]

They've got this game so well man, from the amazing OST to events and even the camerashake on cockpit view, it's shrimply amazing

[@RJVMS]

Dustin reaction of how fast bikes are, is amazing That Ninja is a pretty common bike and just a reminder that the newer ones are even faster. It’s completely amazing and scary how they can be street legal

[@Houstxn_]

38:43 I find it funny how mad Dustin is getting at this license test when this is actually something I had to go through when getting my motorcycle license. They purposefully give you a random direction as late as possible so you can learn how to react quickly to something unexpected showing up in your path while riding. Has literally saved me from crashing with a passenger.

[@Fay7666]

I learned it the hard way when using a high-power eScooter (so, about the same as a starter motorbike), ended up with a stoppie going over bars. That experience taught me how to avoid stuff better. which saved me from crashing into a box truck.

[@markusTegelane]

PD do base their license tests for Gran Turismo on real life racing license lessons, so it makes sense they did the same with Tourist Trophy

[@s1n1stersixsgaming8]

If you're interested in more motorcycle racing series, would recommend the "Ride" series

[@theshinken]

This game is the SINGLE REASON I still have my PS2 up and running and even bought an expensive upscaler after the CRT TV broke. No, not even for GT4. There are other games like GT4 that can somewhat fill that gap today. No game can replace of Tourist Trophy. It is, to this date, 17 years after its release, THE motorcycle racing game. Nothing even comes remotely close.

[@multi21racing]

I don't own a Ride series game but what's wrong with them?

[@GuaranaGH]

​@@multi21racingfrom what I've seen from other motorcycle games, they are all very forgiving when bikes bang (just watch most MotoGp gameplays, it's a wreckfest but nobody falls) and when going off the track

Tourist trophy is the goat bike game. I got into it by just doing endless laps of trial mountain. After a week of being addicted to it I thought I'd check the forums and it turned out I was 5th in the world for trial mountain haha. The ducati is so good.

Dude I'm addicted to your racing game videos, been binging on them for a couple weeks now! The ones I love the most are those where you go through a lesser known / forgotten game from a few generations back, like this one, Sega GT or Tokyo Xtreme. I have a recommendation of an unique game from that era, which you possibly know / have played but I didn't see any video about it: Auto Modellista, made by Capcom for the PS2 / GameCube/ Xbox. That game is one of a kind in so many ways, the cel shaded visuals, customization options, garage builder mode, it's just so different from other games of the period! If you've never played it, you're in for a treat. I recommend playing the GameCube version, it is noticeably better than the PS2. Cheers, keep on producing great content!

[@jeeewhyyypheee]

I actually finished playing Tourist Trophy on PS2 back then, and the hardest part is playing the mimic (8hrs/12hrs) challange instead they change it to 30/50 laps. And yes, TT doesn't have auto play/pilot like GT4 did and you gotta play it manually. And the best body form are "lean body" and set the tuck in as auto, so that you always at attack position. TT applies every bikes setting combination like GT4, so yes editing final ratio and gear does effect how the bikes accelerate and top speed. Suspension compression, rebound, preload also dramatically affect on how fast & sharp you can take a corner.

I believe we've never seen a sequel to this because Polyphony desires a more intuitive controller to represent a bike, whereas cars have racing wheels.
