Jordans not even logged onto the forums and hasn't been for a couple of hours now. This would suggest he has gone somewhere (meeting with sony???!!!!)

Please, meeting with Sony?

You know, some people actually do have lives outside Gran Turismo and this website! He can be visiting his mom, or going Christmas shopping! I don't know, there's a lot he can be doing without being involved with GT5! Jeez, leave the man alone!
 
hahaha thanks pedalforce, but shes not, me being me said i'll have the ps3 now and have the game for christmas :) which in hindsight..... :P

guess i have forza to keep me going til then :scared:

you could always rent it for a couple weeks until Christmas comes.
 
pedal force, i think that would defeat the object of me getting it for christmas and well, dont think shed be too happy with that :P HAHAHA cant have it all though!!
 
Yeah, I missed it too, does he have any big news?

it's news regarding the pic of the supposedly final copy of GT5 from yesterday. Reason why it was taken down amongst other stuff, I doubt it'll have anything to do with the release date

In that case, meh, i'll check later what the fuss was about.
 
Could anyone be so friendly to update me about what Jordan posted? I don't feel like scrolling back several pages.

Thanks in advance

Nope you lazy git, look through the pages yourself, if you don't feel like it why should anyone else make an effort for you?
We're not your butlers...........
 
In case you guys are interested, the Nationwide race is on here. The #20 GT5 car is currently 7th
 
I second that, there is no way it would outsell BO. It might beat it in terms of cumulative sales on the PS3 (and I expect that to happen at least 1 year after launch, I still think BO would sell quicker even on the PS3 alone).

GT has two kinds of fans, driving game fans and the fans who just buy it for the experience (visuals, quantity etc.). The fact that the learning curves for arcade-simulators like GT are very flat and very frustrating does not help either. That is probably the reason T10 went for the rewind feature. I hope we never see that in GT; as far as we keep buying $40 glorified demos, I am sure we wouldn't.

P.S Next time PD try to sell a demo to me, I wouldn't buy it; because I would know that it would just put them at financial ease and protract the developmental cycle by years.

I think you missed the carfans in your second part. And for not buying a new prologue for a GT to come is your call. Altough GT5P was not a complete game it had great value for money if you ask me. I played it alot and still do, and that for only 45 euro.

I don't mind the Prologues at all (don't forget GT4:P), and in fact, I've played GT5:P more than any of my other PS3 titles.

It is a nice way of getting a long term taste of what is to come (especially with lengthy development times of GT4 & GT5), though as a feature comparison, the Prologues should be 1/2 or less the price of a full game (rather than 2/3). But Sony knows what the market will bear, so...

The full game itself is going to give me more enjoyment and playtime than all of my current titles combined (a good size library).

But not everyone feels that way, so... I hope they choose my path over yours. :)

I think this is the page you're looking for: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?p=4097873#post4097873

If it's not you can look under Jordan's profile (by clicking on his name) and look under public profile>Statistics>Find all posts by Jordan. It's the method I use to find a recent post by specific user.
 
maybe we get a release date during one of the commercial in todays or tomorrow race, but they probably would of had some previous announcement.
 
Just in case I want to watch it on television, what channel would it be on? I'm not finding anything at all.

Not that it makes a lick of difference, but I cannot imagine GT5 is going to outsell Black Ops. GT is much more niche as far as I can tell, in North America most gamers I know will be passing on it, only a few passionate about it will be in. Surely that's different in Europe but Call of Duty's pretty popular everywhere as far as I can tell. MW2 claims to have been the biggest entertainment launch of all time, and Black Ops preorders were going faster than it sold. GT5 is big but IMO Call of Duty is a force that would be *really* tough to outsell, particularly when you consider it's on three platforms.
Gran turismo is a bigger franchise than Halo and will likely sell 10million+ copies.

What the hell makes you think I ordered you or anyone else to give me the page? I asked who would be friendly enough, and that person isn't going to be you, obviously, so why even take the time to reply to the request?

Thank you Mykem.
 
Prologue was cool, they should really have put just a tiny bit more effort into the online functionality to hold community over IMO but it is what it is. Definitely got my value out of it anyhow despite it's shortcomings.
 
I cant believe nobody is excited about the ability to change views in cockpit cam. I think everyone would be pleased with this!

Yes sir!
 
Well apart from selling to the 'hardcore' devotees, fans of the series or petrolheads looking for an accurate sim on a console and who'll play the game longer than the casual gamer perhaps GT5 will also appeal, initially at least, to the casual gamers if only for the sheer amount of content promised.
Whether they expect, unwittingly through unawareness of the series, it to be what it is or might prefer more arcadey physics in general and therefore only play it shortly once bought is irrelevant to the total sales.
If you're a kid and you see a driving game which includes a 1000 cars costing the same as another with far less the decision might not be that hard which to buy.
Whether it lives up to their expectations is another matter, maybe it will turn them into converts like us or proof to be a hard lesson unfortunately.
There are still plenty for whom GT5 will be the very first GT-title they play and to whom the heritage of GT means absolutely nothing.

I didn't think you ordered anyone, just thought it to be incredible lazy to ask anyone ( even friendly ) to look for the info only a few pages back in the same thread.
I'll be more than helpful if someone asked a question they couldn't find or just wanted to know without knowing it appeared already, I will not be willing to provide something which can be found a few pages back and with no more effort than clicking your mouse and whereby you yourself said you didn't feel like doing it.

Attitude problem 👎.

Now I'm the one with an attitude problem? Just commented on someone else's perhaps worded a bit strong but I guess I'm not the only one who couldn't be bothered for the reasons I gave above.

You mean the usage of the PS Eye camera for changing the viewing angle in the cockpit? I have the PS Eye and I will test it at the first day of the release of GT5. I'm curious to see, how it works and how it looks.

I am curious about the cockpit view now. I wonder if it will have an up and down adjustment as well or if it will just be back and forth seat adjustment?
 
GT5 car up to 4th :D
 
Hoping for both, and I also hope we will be able to set up the FOV angle in addition to choosing whether to display the driver's hands and the wheel or not. This option in particular would please very much hardcore sim fans. Thinking about it, Forza allows to set up the FOV angle, so it's possible that this option will be in GT5 too.
 
shirakawa do you play forza??? your name looks familiar :P
