> We had the game GranTurismo2 back when I was 12 or so. Gameshark was the way to do that the real 'smart way,' also worth noting was that even back then you could share memorycard saved data if you had access to it with some clever devices. This was my introduction to 'hacking' culture (soldering mod chips, ripping and burning games into ISOs followed that) and was really interesting to see so many homebrew solutions to challenges like these and kind of made the game(s) the side feature of what was taking place at the time. The new PS5 version of GT, whatever number they're on now, looks more like GT1/2 than all of its later versions but much shinier. I personally disliked the license(s) hurdle just using a controller, I breezed through them easily once we got a steering wheel and pedals and were actually kind of fun.
