IGNPS2: How many players will it support?

Imasaki: Up to six players if you use three PlayStation 2's, because it's two players per PS2.

IGNPS2: It has been talked about how the computer AI will react to you in this game. So, if you push someone into the grass, that car will seek revenge on you. Is this being worked on?

Imasaki: Yes, it's being worked on and should be in the game. It's our goal to have you see emotion in the AI and it's one of the biggest things we hope to see

and Gamers.com was nice enought to translate an interview from the weekly Japanese mag, Famitsu.

Famitsu:How far along are you?

Kazunori Yamauchi: About 75% internal workings are pretty much complete, but we are still working on the user interface.

Famitsu: Are there more parts with which you can tune your car?

Yamauchi: The number of parts is pretty much the same as GT2. When we created GT2, we increased the number of parts to make it comparable to tuning a real car. This time however, we made it so that you can really tell the difference when you change one part for another. That was the biggest improvement in terms of tuning.
