Hey guys who is going to be picking up this game?

Add me on ps3 Deh_jug lets get something going here

 

Sweet, I have had it pre paid for months now. Can't wait to check it out.

 

I'm going to try it out before I buy it a friend bought the one for psp when it came out and it wasn't very good.

 

the psp one blows this game was in development for 5 years!!! im getting mine at a midnight opening

 

got my pay stub.. lol

 

Got it early hehe, been playing around with an FC, so happy they made it a premium car (thus you get cockpit view, more detailed model, and damage effects).

 

Just picked mine up. Maybe after is finally finishes loading I'll get to drive my fc. Feel free to add me my nickname is the same there as it is here.

 

Bought it yesterday. Love it.

 

I might drop by to pick one up... or I'll wait for someone to get it to me for Xmas.

 

I'm actually waiting outside EB games right now waiting to get it. Send me a PM wth PS I'd and get some races going

 

I don't have PS3, >.<

 

Gotta be honest, so far I still think Forza is a better game. Its still early though. And of course the first new car I bought was the FC.
PK

 

I want this game so bad but I know if I buy it now I'll fail every single exam coming up... gotta wait!

 

Bwek, your car will never be done at this rate, just give it someone who will do something with it!

 

So this game is awesome, Got a FC done up already, only one down side the Tach on the in car view is messed, only goes up to 4k rpm but man does it still look ******* awesome.

 

Awesome game but takes a long time to install the optional data.
133mb Update
8gb Installation data

 

yea the install was a little long, but i was going through all the collectors edition goodies while it was installing

 

We gotta get some rotary only races going sometime

 

Feel free to add AHHHRT.

Anyone else really enjoy Kart?

 

I am just getting ready to start the game. My name is rickybooby123, look me up.

 

When I opened my GT5, alls I got was a disc full of empty promises.

I had much Higher Expectations. MUCH Higher. Its not bad. Its just Not nearly as good as it could be.

 

**** isnt that the truth.... oh well maybe my girlfriends dad will let me borrow the lotus Turbo espirit for the next cruise....

any ya I had my copy at midnight as well

 

Agreed. This game was oversold on hype, hype it couldn't live up to no matter how hard it tried.

I do however have serious gripes with the GT series that just seem to go ignored in what i've come to see is a japanese strive for statistical excellent over the "feel" and intangible things that would make a sim great.

1) Don't give me 15 miatas...what about some vintage Japanese cars? Mazda Carol, Toyota 2000GT, Oldschool Prince's and GT-R's (R31's), RX-3's. The game tries so hard to be the bible of automotive gaming, but it doesn't include anything oldschool for the most part. Weak offering from lambo too....where's the roadgoing Diablo??

2) The A.I. It's horrible, inexcusibly so.

3) Ever since forza 2, I've fet that that series does a better job of communicating "feel" thru the controler. Heavy car's feel heavier, light cars feel light and nimble. Braking and accelerating with the controller triggers felt more natural. GT cars feel disconnected and dead.

That's about it really. Is it still the best racing game on PS3? Absolutly. Do I kinda wish I still had my copy of Forza 3? Yep.

In the interest of fairness, i'll spend some more time with the game and then revisit this.

 

im not buying it. they can go to hell releasing the game 5 years too late

 

5 years to developed, design, update and perfect this game, there should be no excuses whatsoever to have anything but a modern day classic. No FB’s??? 10+ civics no one needs, but not one FB? I mean hey it only made top 10 car list for the 70’s, why should it be in the game? No Porsches? And i was really hoping to see most, if not all, IMSA cars in this game. Disappointed i am, but i guess with time and countless hours wasted playing the game, I will forget about most of what i said. Also, Lack of maps is most displeasing.
