Gran Turismo 5

[MmmmBeeeeer]

Just finished the B License, all silvers and 2 golds. I just wanted to get through it since I had a limited amount of time to finish it this morning.

Physics feel great to me, much better than GT4 and Prologue. Everything seems to feel natural as far as braking in a straight line, accelerating after turning, etc. I've only driven the slow cars though and I can tell already that taking real world racing techniques will be very beneficial once I step up into the supercars.

People have been so obsessed with the interior view on premiums, including myself, but I have found that I can't drive worth a crap in that view. :laugh: Bumper cam all the way for me, I can just hit my lines so much better for some reason.

I'm loving the game so far, but I knew I would because I have always loved the GT series.

Definitely going to be picking up the trigger attachments in the next few days:

An update for gargantuan simulation racer Gran Turismo 5 will be released on Saturday 27th November, creator Kazunori Yamauchi has confirmed to Eurogamer in a new interview.

"We received a lot of demands for having more regulations placed on the online play. We're going to perform an update on the 27th that will include things like max power restrictions and weight restrictions," Yamauchi said.

This foreign site says a patch is coming December 1.

* Activate damage in Arcade Mode. And lower levels?
* Something to do with rollovers.
* Reduce framerate drops


They say to expect more before Christmas.

Good lord that car looks fucking sick!

The whole game looks amazing! The backgrounds look photo realistic.

Nice, I'm still in my Citroen, actually haven't even raced it yet.

Hopefully the wife will be napping all day tomorrow because of black friday shopping so I'll have time to play

Ok I got all my B-License Gold. And I finally killed it at the slalom cone test on the A license. (19.886) You have to plow through it and hardly let off that gas. Just enough to keep a line but for the most part keep it gunned.

I am missing A-8 and A-10 Gold. Once I get those on to in International C.

Anyone else a license junkie?

haha I get silver and I call it quits most of the time, unless I think getting gold is legitimately possible for me. If I tried for gold on every single one I would probably die from a brain aneurysm.

I need to get gold in the beginner Top Gear Track with those stupid fucking vans so i can unlock the course

Fuck the car, I want to play GTA in that city.

Photomode is like a game within a game, you can do photomode in race replays as well :cool:

My first new car purchase, large images
Those are racing slicks that is why the tires look like balloons ;)
