It's the first anniversary of GT5,it was a long year of passion for GT5!
Please use this thread to recounte your GT5 first year!
 
I've spent countless hours on GT5 ever since I got it last Chritmas. It was a good year of play and I'll always remember myself being around the TV for hours. :lol:

Can't wait to see what else we get! And now that I think about it... do you think the GTR Acadamy SPECIAL VERSION given to us this month was for the it's 1st year of running? Not much of a milestone considering the age of the series itself, but who knows? :)
 
Hooooray!! I remember now, it will be later on in the day, but i was coming back from school, and dropped by a store, to see if they maybe have it in yet? They did! What a glorious moment, i spent about 6 hours first day, 20 hours over the weekend, my first RM was a camaro Z28 '69, honda civic was my first car, i remember the first time i got my favourite car, the F458. It was a magical moment. Then a week later i was on the first endurance race, in my bright orange Lexus LFA, at the grand valley speedway 600.

Oh and i will never forget, the gruelling 6 hours endurance of non stop Suzuka in the Vettel challange. I have never attempted it ever since.

As i tribute, i am taking that Honda civic back to the sunday cup tonight, and re-doing some of the license tests.

And how can i forget the duping glitch, me and my friend were on a mission to dupe rare cars with each, one for one. We so desperatley were struggling to get to a million credits, grinding away at 'like the wind'

Then the break out glitch, i actually made some friends on that.

And my first online competition, gravely though, cut short because of connection issues.

Ah the memories....

Why do people set up a thread asking for an opinion and then don't contribute themselves?

Why don't you tell us about your first year with GT5 first?
 
A year of solid gameplay for $60, can't argue with that. GT games are always money well spent.
 
For me the fisrt time with GT5(22/11/2010,2days before the official release date) was a big delusion!standard car,standard tracks,bad menu and an incomplete online mode but Mr.Kaz and PD with a hard and long work,patch after patch have transformed this game and now,after one year,we have almost a complet game!

Personally I spent a lot of time playing gt5(maybe 800hours)most of them in the online-mode playing with my friend and with my Gt Italian community(GTClubitalia)!

thank you GT5!

Happy GT5 Day! :D
 
Merry GT5 day!
 
A year already?

Crazy days, definitely worth the £40 I paid for it. Yes there are issues but the enjoyment I get from still playing this is unmatched, T500RS for Xmas so I'm going to be playing it for a hell of a lot longer too!

:)
 
I wanted to make this thread :( :lol:

A good solid year out of thus game, easily my most played title. Got the game day1, got the dlc day 1, haven't looked back. Many a good time have been had via this game.
 
Wow. Time flies fast.
 
Glorious day indeed when I got it. Pre-ordered GT5 special edition, went to go pick it up the minute gamestop opened.

Gamestop guy was a prick though, he told me "have you tried Forza yet? you wouldnt of spent all this money for GT if you have."
so I decided to counter by saying "Forza still exists?"

I felt so witty. :dopey: But alas, after that I went home and enjoyed every single thing from the SE. took a long time to download the game, but once finished I began my journey into GT5. :)
 
I preordered it and couldnt wait to get it. I was at school all day thinking about it. I didnt get it until later that night. I played it forever! And then I got up at 5:00 a.m. ad made my first track. It was a Liege Gravel Course. My first car was a premium Honda Civic, and the Stealth Mclaren F1 GTR, and The Gamestop Joey Logano Nascar!
 
I remember when I got it. It was Christmas, it was laying on top of my PS3 in the wrapping paper, so I was happy as soon as I saw both of them together. I don't remember what my first car was but I had a good time. Then, just before the PSN got hacked, I lost all that information because of the YLoD and had not known of transferring the info ti a USB yet. It was 2 weeks before I was able to play again. I remember all the friends I made over the summer, with a few I consider my best friends. Then, I met one person that can not be named here because of the AUP that was the biggest jerk ever. I now forever hate that person. Then, The night before Vettel won the championship, I got to level 35 both a-spec and b-spec. I wish for the good things that happened to happen again in the years to come.
 
Yep, bought it after the last of my exams last year. My exams this year finish tomorrow and it reminded me of GT5!

Can't believe I've had it in my PS3 pretty much exclusively for a year!

Shift 2 lasted about 4 weeks.
 
Its been a very good year only slightly ruined by two, yes two ylod's so I can't play it or MW3 at the moment!! :( I also had a ylod before GT5 was released so I think its time to ignore the free 'repaired' (yeah right) 60gb consoles and fork out on a new slim!
 
I bought mine about a month later- after buying a PS3 and running out of money after that, I had to wait. Luckily the PS3 I bought (a Slim no less) was used and the owner threw in MW2 and with that I bought my GT5 copy from Gamestop for $49.99. And GT5 is still the only game I have for the PS3 (on the PC I have Porta and that's itl).
 
In a year, I've:
Lost my data, 3 times
Bought ~45 million in cars
Bought +100 million in upgrades
Won 1007 races
Driven to the moon, but broke down on the way back (12,700 miles)
Taken +100 pictures
Went 800km/h
Made ~3 fanfics based off of GT5
Have most of the DLC (All ChromeLine, GT500 GTR+NSX Stealth, All NOV DLC)
 
To the OP, thanks for the reminder.
Well at quick calculation, it looks like I've averaged 523kms (or 325 miles) of great fun driving per day.
Not bad for $80...cheaper than the petrol would have cost (not to mention the repair shop bills http://cache.gtpla.net/forum/images/smilies/dopey.gif ).
May the journey continue....
 
My PS3 died in August, wasn't going to bother with another one. GT5 came out and I lasted 3 days lol. Bought a new PS3 which came with two games, traded them unopened toward GT5 and I've never looked back.
 
Awesome! Happy anniversary GT5. Maybe the new seasonal events will have an anniversary theme to them?
 
Happy Birthday GT5...

Yeah, it was a great year for us GT lovers. Some ups and downs but in the end, GT5 evolved a lot in this year.

And yeah, it was 90% of the time in my PS3... it became an almost exclusive GT5 machine.

I really hope Kaz planned something special for the 1st birthday of his newest baby.
 
I was probably the first guy in NH to buy it. I waited at the counter with a freshly-opened box of GT5s in front of me. The second that clock ticked 12am they scanned my card. I have since put 800+ hours into the game. I have been level 40 A and B spec since June!
I cannot thank Kaz and PD enough... I Love this game!!!
Happy Birthday GT5!
 
Happy Birthday and rest in peace. Where is GT6 ?

I mean other Developers release once a year.
