I got hooked on Burnout Paradise. I played it on the 360. Last time I checked I'd clocked up well over 30 hours of play time!!

GT5P in the post

I'll be happier with the GT online system when they implement private game sessions rather than the current random room system. Apparently it will be available through an update, as will damage eventually.

The CS online room will have to be on hold for now

bugger^^

 

[Gareth]

getting excited now I'm on a mission to find a PS3 this evening.

 

[Tom]

Ok so how much is the ulitmate GT5 Experience gonna cost?

PS3, £289.
G25, £140
TV, £????
Sound System £????
Race seat thingy £150?

£3000 ish?

 

[Gareth]

for me its PS3 and the G25, I've already got full surround sound & 42" Plasma, I'd like the racing seat but I don't think its pratical to have around the house.

 

[seb]

37 inch samsung 1080p tv on play.com for £629 delivered at present

 

[Gareth]

I've just had my confirmation email from Game that mine will be with me tomorrow.

 

[172Dom]

WoooHoooo!!!

Ive just had my confirmation from HMV that my GT5 has been Shipped.

I hope its there when i get home!!!!!!!:race:

 

[seb]

anyone who has played the game got any recommendations for a good first car?

 

[sneeks]

Integra to start with as it can be used in many different events and performs well. This was on the Japanese version but with double the cars in the UK release there may be other options.

 

[Brazo]

The golf GTI mk4 is about the best you can affdord initially

 

[seb]

coolio, yeah i want somethnig i can do a fair few events with to start off with.

can i tune them all up? start saving for a BIG turbo lol

 

[sneeks]

I'm not sure which tuning options are available in the UK release but I think you only gain access to anything like that on reaching or beating the A class license.

 

[bigmaddaz]

for the people who have had theirs delivered, where did you order them from? my mate ordered his from play.com and hes hoping its there when he gets home! and so am I ! lol !

 

[sneeks]

On reading around Game and shopto orders seem to have arrived today. Play deliveries are not usually very quick and may appear a day or two after release.

Hopefully my copy will be waiting at home and then all that remains is to install the game to the HDD, download the online update which will probably be swamped and finally start playing.

 

[Madstaffyblonde]

i ordered mine from game, they always deliver the day before release, i have pre ordered loads of games from them and never had a problem and i also get the double points reward for pre ordering bonus :rasp:

 

[Turkish]

Anyone got a full car and track list for the UK version?
I'll have to pop over and see butter and take another crack at this with "woman" mode switched off to see what I make of the physics. Anyone know if you can turn the tyre squeel noise off? lol

No Porsche/RUF ?!!

No Porsche/RUF ?!!

No shortage of Jap crap though. As with every other version of GT.

In fairness I was surpised not to see 27 variants of Suzuki alto's and numerous similar 60bhp asthmatic papmobiles, lol

 

[Brand86]

Will be interested to see what people reckon compared to Forza. Although not sure if people realise the "full version" won't be out for a year or so still, in which time Forza 3 might be out and make things very interesting...

They'll be reserved for the full version.

I need to have another go on it with it set to sim as apparently when I played on it it wasn't. GT5 is the thing above all else that would sell me on a PS3. As much as people bang on about blueray etc I can take it or leave it but deep down I have been a GT Fanboy for years. Forza in terms of the drive and depth of the gaming experience blew the doors off that and I think GT5p will have to impress me alot over and above the stunning looks to make me buy a console on the strength of it alone.

 

[sneeks]

I love Forza 2 but I think the driving model in GT5P is better, especially when using the G25 wheel.

 

[Ja5on]

got home from aberdeen at 2.

GT5 sittin in the mailbox waitng. just installing the now
