You just need a PSN account, you can do that through the PS3 though. Just go to sign into PSN on the PS3 menu and register there.
Or do it on the playstation website.

Nope, so long as you've got a wireless connection you're good to go.

Which is free by the way.

I have never had a problem with it, it does what it says on the tin...
There is a paid option but I don't think it's worth it.
No problem, enjoy!

WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK.
Firstly, how bad does the 'Standard' Civic look?! So many things just ported from GT4, even down to the reflections which barely change and the god-awful sound. The cars are just one, single blob, with the shut lines painted on!!!
Secondly, it looks like it handles EXACTLY like Prologue. Terrible then. Where's this new physics engine, Kazunori? (I'll play it still, but it looks identical.)
...I'm not even going to start on the "damage". That video from 9mins on, says it all for me.
Not like they care because they'll sell millions to people that know no better, but I've cancelled my preorder, they've f*cking annoyed me.

I think a lot of these things would be forgiven/overlooked/ignored if they'd rushed it out for the PS3 launch. People would be happy to just get the game and be playing it but they've delayed it so many times, the expectation can't be met.
It's still going to sell by the bucketload though because of the name so it will still be labeled a 'success'

I think I'll play it before judging it on a few yt vids. Quite how anyone can judge how a game plays from a short video, I have no idea.

Because I've played Prologue. The physics look identical. IDENTICAL.
If it plays well, I'll smash up my iMac.
EDIT: Agreed, Dan. If it was a launch title, no one would grumble. 1000 cars in any level of detail would have been awesome.
The fact they've had six years and they've done nothing more than port 800 cars from GT4 is a joke.

Here's one for you GT5p had 70 premium cars, GT5 has 230 IIRC. So based on the standard cars being a port from the gt4 engine it does beg the question what's been going on for the last 6 years at PD. It's not as if they couldn't afford to hire more staff if it's an issue of cars taking so long to model.

Also, Gran Turismo on the PSP had interior viewpoints.
On the PSP.
I'm gutted.

That would be a valid point if they only started on the game last year but it's been in development for 6 years for christ sake....6 YEARS!! lol
Ignore the fact it's been in development for 6 years and treat it like any other game tbh
Porting code from PS2 to PS3 is obviously time consuming...
If I purchased a racing game that had zero hype surrounding it and I knew nothing about at all other than it looked good graphically, got it home to find that only a small portion of the cars in it were "complete" i'd still be pretty pissed.
aparently so....
"Gran Tourismo 5: Prologue 2 (We're getting there)" would be a better title for the game tbh.

They had six years. They should've met my hopes, and the expectations of everyone else. No excuses.

LOL @ Prologue 2.
People don't like it and have decided to cancel their order, I think the forum gets it. I can't say I'm surprised Christopher has cancelled his preorder, he's been an angry little man in this forum for weeks! 
If damage was truly accurate then people new to the genre would have the steepest learning curve EVER. One missed braking point leading to one shunt into the back of someone else and their race would be over. Like it or not, they have to make it "pick up and play"able...

But they might have an EK9 in there
Lol, huge laughs and controllers breaking TV screens!
I think the dings, dents and bumper displacement is quite 'niche' really. Not overdone but a cool little touch. It might not represent the full impact of a particular crash but it batters the car up a bit as enables me to continue racing.
Apparently, damage later in the game suggests that a dislodged bumper rubs against a tyre, causing smoke and decreased performance. Now that's cool.

If you race with randoms damage or collision detection of any sort can be annoying. On the flip side if (like me) you race with people you know then I'd be more than happy with totally accurate damage modelling tbh.

But I'd imagine you're in the minority in that respect.

Tbh there are plenty of people who still now don't play games online despite having the option. Of those no doubt more will use public lobbies but equally you'd be surprised how many have racing leagues set up on forums in order to find other "mature" gamers to have a decent race with rather than ending up in a lobby full of American kids.

Again, that will be the minority when you look at the millions of copies that will be sold. If it wasn't so, more games would have the option.
