Anyone that has the game seen endurance races yet ? I turned lvl 20 A-Spec yesterday, opened extreme, and to my suprise I did not see any endurance races. Maybe I was just to sleepy to notice ... did anyone see any yet ?


At the moment it doesn't look like there are any which is as about as stupid as the lack of test track and 1/4 mile strip.

This game isn't finished.
 
guys, I have ordered a standard edition of GT5 from a local store (European English Edition) and i have also ordered the Collector's Edition from Amazon (I assume it is the US version). Are those 2 Edition the same? I'm asking because I wanted to play the local edition until i get the Collector's edition from US and then give the standard one to me nephew but I'm not sure if I will be able to continue the progress with a new disk.
 
I think it does more than just unlocking features. It's a 133 MB patch after all.
One of the many undocumented things it does is unlocking a more complete installation option.

Your guess is as good as mine Bro, i suppose we will find out tomorrow. Sounds weird to say it like that "tomorrow" sounds a bit like "a galaxy far far away" LOL
 
So no one knows if PS3 has private chat feature like the 360? hmmmm

Actually it does in the friends section of the XMB you can voice or video chat, don't know about private chat in GT though, but it will have online in-game chat. Hope that helps

I'm afraid Xchat hasn't been added (yet) for the PS3, it should have been added with the PS Plus deal thing, but god knows why they didn't bother. Its one feature everyone with a headset and a PS3 wants. It sucks!!
 
Hey guys, I know this thread is for the discussion of news but i didnt want to create a thread for this simple question.

I'm used to playing my Xbox 360 and on that you can Private Chat or Party Chat

Now me and a few friends have went and bought the official Sony PS3 headsets so we can chat while playing but will we be able to?

I mean is there a chat function whether it be in-game or on the console? (excluding playing online as we will be playing GT-Life when we want to chat).

Basically I want to be chatting to my buddys while playing - i cant imagine playing without doing that, its like going back to the dark ages pre - xbox 360

I'm also interested in this feature, i hope it works...

What do you mean by "the official Sony PS3 headsets"

If you think we are off topic we can continue the discussion here
 
Also whoever's racing in those IGN videos sucks a fatty. Poor effort.
 
GT5 comes out and Korea starts a war about it. Awesome.

We'll probably all die in the resulting global nuclear destruction before we're halfway through the game... that REALLY would suck

Yeah i mean i bought the Official PS3 headset the bluetooth one

But looks like i wasted my money as i wont be using it much if there are no chat features - i'll post in the other thread as its a joke, no wonder my PS3 has been a glorified blu ray player in my house.

I mean after playing the 360 why would anyone want a PS3 (apart from to play GT5) when you cant even chat to your friends while online? (and text chat / voice chat on the XMB / in game lobby system is no answer to this)

Because a lot of people don't care about talking to others while playing alone.
 
It's the 23rd November 2010 on a sunny Tuesday morning in the UK.
My Gran Turismo 5 just arrived!!!!!!!!

You cant have that perspective of it when the PS3 has never had the ability so you couldnt even sample it unless you had a 360 in which i dont know anyone who doesnt talk or use chat no matter what your doing.

I've posted in this thread here as were getting off topic - https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=131644&page=2

Online functionality etc.
 
damn- tried to redeem my preorder car , but it says that my code is invalid, though i just downloaded 1.01- anyone else tried yet?
 
Online functionality etc.

Okay, so let me get this straight, i slot in the disk, then i have the 1.01 patch which takes about 10 minutes, then we have the mandatory install which takes about 30 minutes? and THEN we have the optional instal which takes about 50 minutes and THEN I will get to Play? It's gonna be torture

For all fanatec users:

My game just arrived, one day earlier than expected and that from Amazon. I love Amazon. So to all people just enjoy the game, I'll start playing 'til next week without sleep ;)
 
(going back to the PS3 chat thing)

There's a party chat on the PS3, right at the top of the friends list bit. No idea if it has voice but definetly text and you can add whoever you want.
 
No Bro, I meant that this is what I have to do after I get the game TOMORROW

I guess after waiting for so many years I can handle a few more hours installing and updating the game :) I want to thank Kaz for getting the game now and not in December.

For sure, you are right, but you know how it is, the closer things are the more you want them:)
