    I have just watched gt5-005-nurb.mp4 at 720p and I must say I got a little disappointed…

    Isn’t the shadow of the car a little strange at the end of the movie? it seemed horrible to me! even during at gameplay, shadows at the dashboard are looking really bad… also the anti-aliasing of the car at the replay is worst than I expected. But physics really look amazing, the car balance looks perfect.

    I am REALLY anxious to get my copy of GT5, it’s pre-ordered, I bought a Fanatec GT3 V2 wheel almost exclusively to play it. I’m downloading the other videos, let me see if they are better than this one, becouse I got a little scared… Am I the only one with this feeling?? =(

    Regards!

    R8 Replay video looks amazing, love how the lights in the tunnel are reflected on the roof of the car

    Just another 4 days…………Too bad I probably won’t have my PS3 by then, but at least I’ll hopefully have a copy of GT5 waiting in the wings………maybe even the Collector’s Edition! =)

    God, now that I hear the intro properly: the song really sucks.

    Unlike some other people, I’m not too bothered as it’s a minuscule part of the game ultimately. But wow, that guy’s voice if awful.

    Jordan, you should help them out with their bandwidth problem and maybe host their videos or something :D

    Can someone please post these videos to fileserve, rapidshare, hotfile or megaupload? I been trying to access that site for over 12 hours now to no avail. Someone a few comments up posted to megaupload but only the madrid one works.

    I downloaded the gt5-003-la-sathe.mp4.

    My conclusion for this moment:
    GT5 will be GT4+ (O, alright GT4++).
    My remarks:

    :(La Sathe circuit is just in GT4 way to bumpy (unrealistic), so nothing changed here.
    :(Sound of the LMP’s are .. the same as in GT4. So PD didn’t put any effort in replacing these placeholder engine sounds by their real one’s.
    :)doppler-effect is awsome (as it already was since GT1;o)
    :(No glowing brake disks any more? (lmp’s without glowing brake disks at the end of the lemans straith looks al little bit cheapish graphically).

    I hope some (improved?) sound effects and the new physics.
    Back in 2001 GT3 was magical experience for me. I don’t think it will happen this time. Why did PD focused on quantity instead on quality? Still I very glad that GT is back again.

      To finish my sentence:

      I hope some (improved?) sound effects and the new physics ~will impress me more.

      I saw one glowing brake disk in the ‘GT5 Gameplay Circuit de la Sarthe DayNight Transition’ video thought so PD left it in the final build ;)

      At 00:07 in the gt5-003-la-sathe.mp4 you can see that (some of the) LMP’s are no premium cars, but a straith port from GT4 (low (4k)polygons/same sound).

      HI there, are you well. I read that comment “Back in 2001 GT3 was magical experience for me. I don’t think it will happen this time.” and I think the same thing is going to happen to me too.

      It felt as though GT3 was a totally new experience and to be honest, the reason that I reckon the feeling will not be the same has to be the useless comments people have made which in itself is not a bad thing but, it leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

      Otherwise, keep well and Peace OUt.

      @dearlybeloved: Thanks, I’m fine. I have no bad tast in mouth any more. I agree with you that my remark about the ‘magical’ stuff is a bit subjective/useless. I guess I was a little bit disappointed about the quality of those non-premium lmp cars I saw in this video (the pescarolo still has the gt4 advertisment on it, which is of cource historically accurate;). In the longrun all these comments will be like water under the bridge (not only the silly ones). For me, GT is the only game that matters. Being critically in a objective manner maybe can contribute to an even better GT6.

    I don’t know why but my downloads were all corrupted with grey all over the screen, The madrid one worked better but these vids are about as HD ad a Nokia 5110.

    My how the graphics and computing power have changed. Remember every game prior(GT-GT4) had pre-rendered intros. I remember thinking to myself “WOW one day the gameplay will look this good!” I am not say that this isn’t pre-rendered but it is taken straight from replay footage or what not. And that was just about 13 years ago. My how far we have come. I was 15 then…thanks Kaz for making a childhood dream come true. I can’t wait to put My Favorite Game by the Cardigans in a playlist just for hold time sake, maybe even Sex Type Thing or Dragula. F*&k it i am putting GT2 in my PS3 60 gig right now just to compare. Happy motoring gentlemen!!!

    The Sarthe replay looks … frankly, pretty bad. The Madrid replay looks … pretty.

      and does it bug you that the wings on the cars in Sarth are F-ing sprites? So far it’s the only graphical thing to bug me, but it’s a HUGE one.

      I also think Sarthe with time change looks pretty bad until it gets completely dark. This is true for Nurburgring.
      I still dont have the game but from the looks of it the variations without time change look much better than the ones with it.
