Loo mntwana, njengoko unokuthelekelela, wayebizwa ngokuba nguGuilherme. Ikwanguye ngoku ubhala le migca kwaye uneminyaka ephindwe kabini. Isibini?! Oku kuvakala kubi kakhulu…
Andindedwa kulento mna? Ndixelele ukuba nawe uchithe iinyanga zobomi ubambelele kwisaga yeGran Turismo. Ndikhumbule ukwabelana ngale nto apha ngokunxulumene nokusungulwa kweGran Turismo Sport entsha - ukuba usindwendwela yonke imihla, kufuneka ukuba sele uqaphele ukuba le saga isesempilweni entle kwaye kuyacetyiswa. Fumana ngakumbi apha kulo mxholo oxhasiweyo.
“Owu tata ndithengele iGran Turismo Sport phaya”. Ukuba unyana wam akaze andibuze ngolo hlobo, ndiya kuziva ngathi ndoyisakele... Ndiyathanda ukucinga ukuba ngoku kukho abantwana abaninzi (kwaye hayi kuphela…) abanyibilikayo ngempelaveki, bebambelele kwikhonsoli, ngokungathi kukho zazingaseyozimbopheleleko ebomini.
Ngelo xesha kwakungekho...
Ukuba inkumbulo iyasebenza, ndandisengumfundi ogqwesileyo ngelo xesha - ndaweni ithile kunyaka we-12, ngenxa yokuxakeka kweshedyuli yabaphumeleleyo, izinto zatshintsha kancinci kwaye amabakala ehla. Iinkxalabo zam zaphelela ekugcineni amabakala kwinqanaba elihle kunye nokunye okuncinci.
Ngaphandle koko, bendisokola yonke imihla, ngakumbi ngeholide, ukuze ndiqokelele imali kwiGran Turismo. Kwakungasoloko kulula, ndade ndachitha iikhredithi ezininzi ndityhala iimoto ezazingafanelanga nepeni egqithileyo.
Ah…Ndiza kuthenga iHonda Jazz kwaye ndixhobise injini ukuya kwindawo yokugqibela kuba ndinako. #ukuphila
Ndide ndafumana iSuzuki Pikes Peak Shield. Ngelo xesha ndandingazi ukuba iSuzuki Shield yayiyintoni, nokuba yayiyintoni na iPikes Peak okanye yayingubani uNobuhiro ‘Monster’ Tajima, kodwa i-aileron enkulu yangasemva yandibamba iliso.
Ndikhumbula ixesha lokuqala ndicinezela i-X (i-accelerator): "Kulungile, oku kukhawuleza ngokwenene"! Ukusukela ngaloo mzuzu ukuya phambili ndaqalisa ukuphumelela lonke ugqatso nobuntshatsheli. Ukufumanisa iSuzuki Pikes Peak Shield yayiyi-EuroMillions yam yedijithali.
Ndiyabulela kwiSuzuki Shield andizange ndiphinde ndibenazo naziphi na iingxaki zemali eGran Turismo. Yayiyisidlo samalungiselelo angekho ngqiqweni kunye nokuthenga.
Kodwa ekubeni silapha, makhe ndikukhumbuze ngeenkcukacha zobugcisa ze "irhamncwa". I-2.5 litre ye-V6 ye-twinturbo injini ephantse ibe yi-1000 hp, i-gearbox enesantya ezintandathu esilandelelanayo, i-wheel drive yonke kunye ne-800 kg kuphela ubunzima. Akumangalisi ukuba waphumelela yonke into kunye nomntu wonke.
Ndimele ndibulele
Kukho imidlalo emibini eye yanegalelo elikhulu namhlanje ekubeni ngumqhubi we-avareji kakhulu. Ndiyiqaphela le nto xa ndikwazi ukuhlola iimoto ezinje nale isendleleni.
Omnye waloo midlalo yayiyiGran Turismo, enye yayiyi-TOCA 2 yiCodemasters. Ndiphantse ndalibala malunga noColin McRae Rally - ongenakuxolelwa. Ndibe nethamsanqa lokukhula xa imidlalo yevidiyo yaqala ukulinganisa ubunyani. Indaleko enkulu xa ucinga ukuba kwiminyaka embalwa ngaphambi kokuba ndidlale uMario Kart.
Ndikhumbula okokuqala ndidibanisa ivili lokuqhuba kwiconsole. Ivili lam lokuqala lokuqhuba lalisele line-force-feeback, i-handbrake kunye ne-gearshift. Ixabisa i-25 contos (i-125 euro) kwivenkile e-Pinhal Novo. Uchithwe kakuhle!
namhlanje lelinye ilizwe
Andikazami iGran Turismo Sport entsha okwangoku. Kodwa ndinomdla wokwazi ukuba lisebenza njani ibali leeglasi ezibonakalayo. Sendibonakala ngathi ndiyindoda endala ethethayo, kodwa inyaniso kukuba ndiphulukene nololiwe wokudlala kancinci.
Iigraphics ezichazayo eziphakamileyo, iiglasi ezibonakalayo, amavili okuqhuba anokwenyani, iiconsoles ezinenkcukacha ezenza iikhompyuter ezininzi zibenomona… ngokufutshane, ihlabathi elitsha. Ndiyavuma ukuba emva kweminyaka emininzi kude ne-simulators, ndiyoyika "ukubamba" umlutha kwakhona. Apha eRazão Automóvel ingcaphephe kwizilingisi nguDiogo Teixeira.
Xa ndizama kwakhona, ndiza kukuxelela ukuba bekunjani. Inye into eqinisekileyo… kweli hlabathi apho i-petroli ibiza kakhulu nangaphezulu, izinto ezithuthuzelayo, nangona zingabizi xabiso liphantsi, zibonakala ngathi sisivumelwano esilungileyo.
