Sorry fellas but someone is playing with the hand controller while the kid pretends with the wheel. He has a good i dea of what to do but the steering inputs are a little off from whats happening on the screen. I think his dad just wants him to think he's driving

This is GT4 for kids. It's ACTUALLY titled that. The japanese decided to throw out another version of gt4 directed specifically at this kind of audience. I really dont think someone's dad would take the time to video their kid just to pretend he can play a video game with a wheel :confused

I agree, the first vid the car isn't doing what he's inputting with the wheel most times.

He might be driving on the 2nd one, but most younger kids can play video games well enough to navigate a few corners, especially after they're shown the correct line and can mimic someone.

i think there both him, since the point is to hit cones it looks pretty easy for him to understand and it shows him the line so in the 2nd one he unserstands the line and mimics it.

Wouldn't suprise me if it was him. I remember being quite adept at all sorts of games when i was young.

Of course they wern't as advanced as GT4, but this kid having grown up with these kind of games it would make sense that he could actually do that.

I believe there are quite a few driver aid options in the game.

Also this could just be a demo, and they might be steering along with it.

If they are not actually real, i would not doubt someone could do this. There's a reason they try to teach you things like foriegn languages when you are very young (kindergarden...).

Also, with the way Video games like this work, if a child was "forced" to play it a lot, they cange very familiar with patterns and develop skills to perform during the game.

I just said that kid is playing the GT4 For Kids, its a version only sold in japan.

edit: nm, misread that. thought you said it was a demo. Theres alot of counter-steering because he might be fighting against the force feedback. I know i have to fight back a LOT with my gt4 prologue.

I dunno, but to me the kid is playing. Maybe he's a midget pretending to be a kid ;)

Any info on this game, japanese google search is not turning up anything.

very little about it, but thats all i could find.

I read the original article on IGN.com but even there it was just a brief overview of what it actually was, it didn't go into gameplay or whatnot
