Jordan is the owner of GTPlanet and created the site in 2001. He has closely followed the Gran Turismo franchise and the world of sim-racing for over two decades.
In one of mimaximax’s recent videos, he (attempts) to show damage on the Nissan Motul GT-R. Unfortunately, despite the fact that it’s a race car, it doesn’t show anything more than a few scratches in this old demo that he’s using. While trying to damage the car, though, he inadvertently forces an AI-controlled Castrol Supra into a last-second avoidance maneuver. For a game which has long been criticized for its artificial intelligence, this is a positive step forward. Watch for the incident shortly after 2:15 in the video below. Thanks to TorqueHappenS08 for the tip!
Taking a break from the Nordschleife, Mimaximax’s latest videos show off two of Gran Turismo 5’s most exciting new cars: the Ferrari Enzo and Lamborghini Gallardo LP-560-4 at Indianapolis. Enjoy!
The latest videos from Mimaximax have taken an interesting turn over the past few days, as he begins to feature some of the more unusual and exotic cars found in the demo. Most notably, we get to see the highly-anticipated McLaren F1 in action on the Nurburgring, along with a race-prepped TVR Tuscan Speed 6. He’s even thrown in footage of a Mercedes SLR and in-car replay from a Nissan GTR V-Spec for good measure!
The now-infamous mimaximax just keeps churning out awesome videos from his copy of the GT5 CES 2010 demo. To finish off the week, here’s three more clips from Nordschleife featuring an Amuse 380RS Superleggera.
Our friend mimaximax continues pumping out videos from his copy of the GT5 demo! His third update includes a batch of clips featuring the Lexus Weds Sport IS350 on the Nurburgring Nordschleife, and it’s looking as good as ever. Enjoy!
YouTuber mimaximax, who shared those videos I posted yesterday, has been hard at work. Since that time, he’s uploaded ten more clips which – once again – you pretty much have to see. In addition to more in-car replays, we get to watch the Nissan Motul Autec GT-R, Amemiya Asparadrink RX7, Autobacs ARTA Garaiya, and the Lexus Weds Sport IS350 in action from various different angles. Enjoy, and once again, thanks to mimaximax for all of this!
Thanks to the mysterious mimaximax, we’ve got five new videos that you definitely do not want to miss. Fortunately, he’s focused on cars we haven’t seen very much, including the Petronas TOM’s SC430, ARTA NSX, and the Yellow Hat Supra. You’ll even recognize Sebastian Loeb’s face in an in-car replay. But enough with the text – start watching these videos!
As the mysterious GT5 demo has been making waves over the past week, two more interior replay videos have surfaced. Similar to the Subaru Impreza WRC driver and co-driver animations that we saw earlier this month, both show the Toyota FT-86 Concept on Tokyo R246, but from slightly different angles. Thanks to all who sent these in!
First things first: two independent sources have privately confirmed to me that the GT5 Demo Collection is real, and the original whistle-blower lherre has backed up his announcement with more screenshots. This collection is also providing a closer look at things we only got to peek at during the shows where these demos were originally featured.
NeoGaf’s lherre apparently has access to a special GT5 demo, and he’s just shared a few pictures with the rest of the world. From what we can see, this demo is a compilation of sorts – a collection of all the game builds we’ve seen at automotive and gaming shows over the past few months. Of course, there’s a chance these images are nothing more than a hoax – I’ll leave that up for you to decide.
Yes, you’ve seen some of these screenshots before, but not at these resolutions. I’m a sucker for high-megapixel images, so when when Stefan1904 dug these up at 3840×2160 (8.2MP) and 5760×3240 (18MP), I had to share them with you one more time. The previous images were only at 1920×1080, so there’s significantly more detail to take in. Enjoy!
According to an Italian gaming site, a Sony representative at last week’s Game Developers Conference informed them the company was looking to release Gran Turismo 5 in October of this year. While GT5 received little attention at the show, Sony’s marketing vice president, Peter Dille, re-affirmed the game would release this year. Of course, October also fits nicely within the “fall” release window mentioned by European Sony executive James Armstrong last month.
Three high-res screen shots have just been released, which appear to complement the most recent new trailer for the game. I’m particularly impressed by the interior lighting of the car, with all of the SLS AMG’s buttons and knobs lit accordingly. Something else to look for: the “Tentative” street names on the road signs… Thanks to “deep_sky” for picking these up first!
GT5 received brief mention at Sony’s large press event at the Game Developers Conference 2010 today. While the focus of the show turned out to be Sony’s new motion controller, it was “confirmed” the company’s biggest racer will be released in 2010. Of course, for anyone who’s been paying attention, this isn’t exactly a surprise, but it should calm any lingering fears that remained after the game’s Japanese March date was postponed.
This definitely isn’t the first lap we’ve seen of Tokyo R-246, but it is one of the fastest. With the notoriously fast GT Academy 2010 finalist Daniel Holland at the wheel, this clip is considerably more fun to watch than most of the others – and it sounds pretty good, too. Thanks to CoolColJ for digging this up!
Torgo, who apparently has an early copy of “God of War III” with the new GT5 trailer and some proper video capturing equipment has shared the clip excellent quality. Watch it in HD below, and check out some of these still images which I’ve captured from the clip after the jump…
As many users in our forum suspected, there’s a brand new GT5 trailer included in “God of War III”. Here’s our first look at the new video, which shows a brief look at night racing, damage, and the new Rome circuit. Thanks to hardvibes for sending this in! I’ll post up a better quality version of this clip as soon as it’s available.
Here’s a look inside the Subaru Impreza WRC car as it makes its way around Tokyo R246, as seen in one of the GT5 demos used at the recent GT Academy 2010 national finals. Thanks to CoolColJ for digging this up!
MotorTrend has just published a new video today, which includes new NASCAR video footage – including interior view! It also documents Kazunori Yamauchi’s first-hand experience at the Texas Motor Speedway. Thanks to everyone who sent this in!
