@@matteocrimi865 Gran turismo since its beginnings has been a realistic driving simulator, realism in driving and graphics, fortnite goes more for cartoony graphics, so there's no point of comparision since both games try something different, it's like comparing a kid's toy to a collector's toy, they are different things for different publics, toys for kids are less detailed but resistant, while collectors look incredible but can be very fragile
Can we all just appreciate that the visuals sync perfectly with three very different songs ?! I grew up with PAL version so nostalgia effect will make it No1 choice for me, but the NA version gives you chills too . Also , I prefer British rock way more than American, but I have to compliment again the game developers because of these masterpieces they gave to us
@@Adam63545 that was due to the refresh rate of TV's in europe at the time, from what I remember TV's were locked to 50hz back then in europe so playing at 60hz could have possibly not even worked on those old tv's at the time. You can do a bit of research on that, obviously today we don't have that issue since all TV's are universally to current standards but at the time that wasn't the case so that's why there were so many differences between european and american versions of games.
Back in the day we had no clue that this game had different intros depending on where you were on the planet. I remember the first time I saw the US intro I though it was kind of a fake (I live in a PAL region). It's strange because if you talk about this game to Americans, it feels like you came from a parallel universe where things are the same but a little bit different, like when they remember playing gt3 with that snoop dog sound, and you are like: what ? I remember playing gt3 but not with music from snoop dog.
5:58 this part is the reason the American intro is the superior one. while this segment is cool in the EU version as well, the computerized look of the overlay was clearly made for and clearly works best with Are You Gonna Go My Way. the rapid scene switches on beat afterward also works better in the US version than the EU version. the international intro movie was clearly edited with the Lenny Kravitz song in mind.
*Polyphony offices* Kaz: So we got the new intro ready? "Yes sir" Kaz: .......did you meet the spin out and Corkscrew quota? ".........I'll re-edit it"
This was my childhood. I remember waking up my dad every single day to play gran turismo with me. And youtube wasn't as big as it is today so we didn't have that much to do besides watch TV or play playstation on the weekend
Sorry for being confused here, but...Why does everyone hate the NTSC-U version? Is it because of their european nostalgia? Because it's a remix of a classic and remixes are apparently trash? Is there something I'm missing? I don't get it, it's by far my favourite intro of all time. Almost everything about that version is perfect.
@Psyche yeah Here Is the best GT songs intros: GT1 that One both US/EU idk what it's called GT2 My Favourite Game - US GT3 Just A Day - EU (idk both songs are good but Just a Day hits different) GT4 Moon Over The Castle - US/JP (and that One Song by Kasabian in the EU) GT5 Prologue SURV1V3 - EU (that One Song by Weezer Is also great) GT5 Planetary (GO!) - All regions (also 5OUL ON D1SPLAY!) GT6 All My Life - All regions No GT Sport because I never played It
@@JinteiModding GT7 all intros have the same soundtrack luckily and they all work, personally though the Japanese version looks better in shots compared to the North American, but since I’m Canadian I have the North American version. It’s not bad though
PAL wins... Nothing beats that Feeder song at Laguna Seca in a Mazda 787b... Sorry, but that is my childhood and I'm going to play it now, Merry Christmas everybody
PAL is the best one, obviously because I grew up with it. But NTSC-J is awesome, Moon Over the Castle is one of the finest pieces of music I've heard. Uhh.. NTSC-U.. yeahh...
PAL song isn't bad at all, my only issue is that it sounds of something from Burnout 3 Takedown, not Gran Turismo. Moon Over the Castle doesn't fit too much as Gran Turismo 3 intro imo. NTSC-U for the Win
I'm not able to choose a favorite because they're all great. Personally, I'd stick to the North American version because it's what I grew up with; to me, the song mixed with the visuals in the game give it a uniquely American feeling, sort of like NASCAR. And bescause of that, the songs picked for the European and Japanese versions seem odd, because neither of those places seem to have the same kind of atmosphere that there is here in the US. But, the truth is, each song fits well in its own right. And that's why I don't have a favorite.
That being said, even though the song for the North American version is by far the most nostalgic to me, the other two give me a weird sense of it too, even though I haven't heard them until now. I grew up on rock music, and because of that, "Just a Day" is a song I still relate to and really enjoy. As for "Moon Over the Castle", I don't think that one needs an explanation.
I grew up playing the NTSC/J Gran Turismo Copy. And when my family moved to the United States. Much later around 2009 - 2010 I got a copy of Gran Turismo 3 NTSC/US from a Friend. I was blown away that the game had a different soundtrack/intro song, never would of guessed it ( same thing could be said about nearly every copy of PS2 games and PS1 games I own for different releases around the world: Gran Turismo 1, 2, 4, - Kaido Battle, Option Tuning Car battle and many more ). I think the European one is alright but to be honest. The NTSC/US I think is better because it's more agressive rock - which is what racing is about - it gets you hyped up At 5:57 is the perfect transition in the song and intro. The song gets more chill while showing a badass BNR34 Calsonic JGTC Car. And after that showing the JZA80 Supra with very 2000's font and style, shows other car models listed while flashing. You cant beat that. While the NTSC/J is a classic, because it's Gran Turismo's Theme song - can't beat it, it captures the heart and soul of Gran Turismo 3. While the European PAL version is just the middle step child of the intros. It doesn't really fit in, was a poor attempt.
All USA versions of 'Gran Turismo' are garbage, soundtrack of musics shit... The JP are the best! 'Moon Over the Castle' are beautiful theme and play forever in intros of all versions of game!
How ridiculous you are, Overvaluing the Moon Over castle, that song has been used since all the grand turismo, It's more burnt and recycled XD, Usa's version will always be the best even if it hurts, The intros and the synchronization of the intros are better ,It has better hits and songs with talented artists, the japan version is good but it has already become an overexploited garbage.
I'll never forget the first time watching this with my brothers, and our mouths dropped at how realistic the graphics looked for 2001
This game low-key still holds up as far as gameplay goes. It's really, really fun
Yes, GT3 Is Better than that sh*t of Fornite
@@matteocrimi865 agreed,fortnite is shit.

I grew up in the PAL region so I had the better intro, however I recently reordered an NTSC version of the game because it has a better frame rate
eh that's debatable, europeans have different taste in rock music, I actually prefer the NTSC song lol but probably cause I'm Canadian
@@HikariSakai Even still, I hate how just because I live in Europe we get a slower frame rate which is actually very noticeable

PAL always banging when it comes to GTs intros!

I'm Canadian so we got the NTSC-U version (American) of the game and I can confirm, that Snoop Dogg song absolutely slaps.
European version is soooo good, I just love that song, it's so nostalgic
Me too
Agreed!
it fits more then then the us and Japanese versions
Europe
Japan
America
In that order. All 3 trailers are good but it’s the music choice that decided it for me
PAL version ist best, good old memories to 2002
I think NTSC-U version preforms the best, great nostalgia memories
PAL is the best for me too
could never really get into Feeder tbh, only song I have from them is Buck Rogers & Miss You
I would say this is the only pre-GT5 Gran Turismo game in which all intros are equally awesome.
Same

I grew up on the NTSC-U version, and surprisingly, that remix is pretty damn accurate to how we loved music back then in 2001, heheh
Mine is NTSC-J version when I got it back 12 years ago
I would say this is the only pre-GT5 Gran Turismo game in which all intros are equally awesome.
it isn't gran turismo without a car spinning out and a couple of cars passing by an s turn
*Polyphony offices*
Kaz: So we got the new intro ready?
"Yes sir"
Kaz: .......did you meet the spin out and Corkscrew quota?
".........I'll re-edit it"
moon over the castle will always give me chills
Nothing beats the America version. The beginning of the song sounded like it was the engine roaring to life. Perfectly blended in.
This was my childhood. I remember waking up my dad every single day to play gran turismo with me. And youtube wasn't as big as it is today so we didn't have that much to do besides watch TV or play playstation on the weekend
Unpopular opinion, but the North American one is the best.
Just A Day one of my favourite songs from any GT games
Sorry for being confused here, but...Why does everyone hate the NTSC-U version? Is it because of their european nostalgia? Because it's a remix of a classic and remixes are apparently trash? Is there something I'm missing? I don't get it, it's by far my favourite intro of all time. Almost everything about that version is perfect.
I don't think anyone HATES the US version, most people just prefer the EU version
I actually find the PAL version really childish (I'm from the EU myself) so that won't be it I guess 🤣
Yeah that NTSC version sounded pretty good.
@Psyche yeah
Here Is the best GT songs intros:
GT1 that One both US/EU idk what it's called
GT2 My Favourite Game - US
GT3 Just A Day - EU (idk both songs are good but Just a Day hits different)
GT4 Moon Over The Castle - US/JP (and that One Song by Kasabian in the EU)
GT5 Prologue SURV1V3 - EU (that One Song by Weezer Is also great)
GT5 Planetary (GO!) - All regions (also 5OUL ON D1SPLAY!)
GT6 All My Life - All regions
No GT Sport because I never played It
@@JinteiModding GT7 all intros have the same soundtrack luckily and they all work, personally though the Japanese version looks better in shots compared to the North American, but since I’m Canadian I have the North American version. It’s not bad though
どのバージョンも素晴らしいオープニング映像と曲ですね!
Japan always uses moon over the castle lmao
With differents mix in all games, GT5 Its the best in my opinion :D
Feeder is my fav!
PAL and NTSC-J yo.
PAL wins... Nothing beats that Feeder song at Laguna Seca in a Mazda 787b... Sorry, but that is my childhood and I'm going to play it now, Merry Christmas everybody
heheh on my Christmas ill get gran turismo 4 for nostalgia
I love the Pal intro theme song
I grew up on the NTSC-U version but I wish I had the PAL version.
Had no idea THIS game had a Moon Over the Castle intro!
My favourite? PAL. The one I grew up with
this game embossed my childhood. never played a better game... 787b fav. car
Wait, isnt the EU intro somehow different?
The camera angles, the car the camera Is pointing at...
I grew up playing on NTSC-U version but my favorite and loved one is PAL version Opening of Gran Turismo 3
The European version just fits the footage. Japanese is just GT4 but on a tighter budget, and US just doesn’t fit. Of course, this is just my opinion
But the us version had the most complete and realistic intro?
@@toyotagt-one3266 but.... this is my opinion
@@thegingercarguy but the pal intro looks very bland compared to the us?
@@toyotagt-one3266 but I prefer the PAL
@@toyotagt-one3266 and what are you talking about it looking bland they’re almost the same intro
Dude this brings back memories i played is on my ps2 all the time
PAL is the best one, obviously because I grew up with it.
But NTSC-J is awesome, Moon Over the Castle is one of the finest pieces of music I've heard.
Uhh.. NTSC-U.. yeahh...
#1 Japan
#2 Europe
#3 America
I have a soft spot for music without words.
NTSC-J always is the best
I just think the usa version has so much more punch to it. The eu is not so bad either but still prefer the US
Why is it the PAL version gets the best soundtrack?
Lenny kravitz syncs so well with this intro so it’s got to be the best out of all of them
its amazing what you can do when you literally sync your video to a song
Charles thekinglov *Threateningly staring at AMVs*
I love the USA version of Gran Turismo 3
Ntsc intro is good, but Pal intro is the best one ever made in a racing game in my opinion.
I grew up on the NTSC-U, but I’ll admit, that the PAL has a banger of a song. What makes it better that it isn’t a shitty remix like the other intro.
I grew up with NTSC U/C version. So it’s BEST!
Ntsc-U forever
Did i noticed a lamborghini diablo GT2 in the NTSCJ intro? It was never released in all versions, still playable using gameshark codes
Yeah its in the NTSC-J version without gameshark.
1:45
NTSC-J : Unlockable
NTSC-U : hack using gameshark codes
EU : unobtainable by any means
Eh, 10 FPS difference at the cost of a Better intro.
Worth it
PAL is so good holy shit
PAL song isn't bad at all, my only issue is that it sounds of something from Burnout 3 Takedown, not Gran Turismo.
Moon Over the Castle doesn't fit too much as Gran Turismo 3 intro imo.
NTSC-U for the Win
DU-DU-DU-DU

*cries in NTSC U*
Damm...
PAL is... yeah it's pute nostalgia
I forgot that Glenn Seton's AU Tickford Falcon XR8 was in the PAL intro
And PAL first then NTSC-J everytime
🗣 ALL BY MYSELFFF
The USA version is still my favourite.
Jp the best. of course xd
Pal has the best music of them all
Eurobeat?
For me the Best is NTSC j and pal
The European version is so much better and I love the music
Yep mine (UK aka PAL) is the best.
Yall hype over so dirt rock songs, while the Japanese version literly has the most legendary gran turismo intro song of all time
pal forever
PAL: DU DO DO DO DO DO DO
others: GUITAR!!!!!
for NTSC U it's was: UH uh uh uh uh
ntsc-u forever
of course, the best for last.
The PAL is by far the best.

NTSC-J got every music library for gt3
Hold on. Opel Is a German Company of cars. Why in the PAL intro appears the Vauxhall Astra T.C.?
Isn't there a really over powered car that you can get like half way through the game or is that gran turismo 4 im thinking of
NTSC-U has a song from Raekwon and Ghostface Killah. PAL can't touch us!
dogg's turismo 3 enters da chat, yo
Is it me or does the PAL version sound... sappy lol. Not as hardcore as the NTSC-U I guess
Pal
I have the US version but I prefer the PAL version so much better in my opinion
@@gabxln in my opinion the music is much better than the Lenny Kravitz version only that. Excuse me for answer tooo late

I like all these intros. PAL is my least favorite though.

I Buy GT 3 but its american and european

I like the PAL song, but I prefer the US. Mostly it's because of how the intro WORKS with the music. The PAL version... Not so much...
Lenny Kravitz is more upbeat
