Nope :( PORSHE won't be in GT5 (still we have a Ruf ;) ).

But hey we have a ton of cars :) and probably most fun feature of them all. Course maker.

It's amazing feature imo, just try to imagine creating six courses each ten kilometers long and making from this Tournament to play online. Everybody won't know track so pure skill will be included :)

I wonder if Ruf would be a premium cars...

200 cars is just to little...
 
That tokyo 246 vid is so neato bandito! Too bad it's in winter, the foliage doesn't line up. Thats PD's next challenge. Real world courses in all four seasons!

What concerns me from this image, is the lack of intermediate/wet tyre option. We have heard about weather incorporation, but there is currently no suggestion of wet tyres being modelled. The sports tyre, is not a racing wet tyre.

Now its possible, that the wet tyres are included with the slick racing tyres but simply aren't modelled for this image. It's also possible that wet tyres are in a special section with the dirt and snow tyres. It's perhaps a little early for my concern after all.

The red bar behind the throttle meter is for traction control. Red is what your pedal registers, white is what you getting after the traction control has done it's job. If you turn off traction control the bar won't show up

I thought if you go over a high curb, try and accelerate in a gravel trap without TC etc, you'll see the red bar.
 
I know Gran Turismo doesn't have a story line or characters but.. I just finished playing Mafia II and the story line could have went for alot longer. I've been thinking just the past few minutes there about games and how short the story lines are lately. COD MW2 really wasn't that long either so am I the only person who's worried about GT5 being too easy and quick to finish? I know it won't matter anyway because there's heaps to do still after you finish it but still it seems games developers these days are becoming rather slack in how quickly you can finish a game. Because KY said that it will be better for 'casual' gamers too.

Are you comparing Call of Duty to GT? Is this your first GT? If yes, then don't fear, you won't be done after 20 hours ...and probably not even after 50, 100 or 200 ;)

No, not my first GT and not comparing any games at all. Just saying that games seem to be shorter these days compared to games of say.. the 1990's or '00's. I've never 100%'d a Gran Turismo game and I like that about it.. always something more to do. I'd hate to just sit down with GT5 and 17 hrs of game play later the thing is 100%. :S GT MUST offer bucket loads of hours worth.

I have a feeling that GT5 is going to be a "TES: Oblivion" of racing games. (Oblivion is an open world RPG with over 300 hours of gameplay)
 
I'm expecting even more events and things to do in GT5 than in GT4 now with Nascar, WRC, the Top Gear Test Track, the Course Maker, etc.
I think Kaz meant that the game will be more beginner friendly so that everyone can enjoy it. I know a lot of people who stopped playing GT4 because they couldn't finish some licenses or events like the GT World Championship and I'm sure there are many people like that throughout the world.

It's hard to find the balance between hardcore and casual but a game as big as GT5 has to have this balance.
 
But didn't Kaz say something about how "gamers nowaday don't have so much time" or something like that ? Maybe it just means it will be easier to make money, at least thats what I hope.

It's a driving game or in the case of GT5, a driving/racing sim. Depending on your interest in car/racing, games like this can have an infinite enjoyment possibilty. GT5 Prologue for example, lasted over two years for me. It would've been more had I not sold my PS3 a few months ago (out of necessity). Provided that you have a good set of FFB wheel, a good imagination (and as I've mentioned an innate interest in cars/racing) and not so much interest in latest tech gadget/gaming, this game has good possibility of being the only game you'll ever need.
 
The good thing about GT5 is that you can`t really be completely done with, there are many endurance races, some hard races, you drive to earn money to buy 1000 cars, it`s obvious, this will take time. And don`t forget the online feature, I assume new online events will come out frequently, new cars will be launched and so on. I`m still playing GT5P, trying to set better times and crawl the lists.
 
I'm really keen to see what effect DLC has on GT5. It could do good things for the series or they could completely balls it up and charge to much or release it sporadically.

Just the great new physics, 1000+ cars, and track editor alone should equal endless gameplay, add the indepth online mode and you got a game that has limitless replay value, not even mentioning the customization/tuning, photomode, A-spec/B-spec career mode, 24hr enduro's, etc.
 
I agree, you can`t really compare this game to a game with a storyline, such as GTA or even Shift. GT5 is more about the driving, and refining yourself as a driver, and now, making tracks.
 
Set an online time trial on every car, on every track. That should keep you busy for a good while, and you haven't even touched the other parts of the game! :)

Yeah, think of it like this, if you want to set a good time on Nurburgring and get into the top 100 list with every car, that`s over 1000 laps on the ring, and each lap will be about 9 minutes on average, that`s 9000 minutes, or 150 hours at nurburgring, with just one lap per car:)

I know. This game is easily going to be worth $300. Ooops, I should not have said that. I hope Sony does not read this:ouch:

You can even completely avoid online TT althogether and still have plenty of driving. Since GT5 will probably have (like GT5P) local leaderboard, you can run every car on the full Nurburgring Nordschleife course, with all the different tires combination and see which is the fastest (and the slowest) car. After about 6 months of doing that, you can now do the same thing but at night :)
 
so many, so many activities! Its making my head spin with all the activities we can do. (will ferrell anyone?)
 
Reading these posts about how long the game is going to last reminds me of the time some troll told me GT5 will get boring in a month. :lol:

Yeah, GT5 will keep us busy for years. I just hope online races will be smooth.

:lol: Look at it this way, I still play 4 when I'm not on Prologue.

GT5 will last years.. As any good game should.
 
I think its just a rumor but, i have to ask.

A friend of mine came to my house and we are talking about a lot of stuff (women, cars, bikes and games), he said me that GT 5 may be delayed again because some legal issues with some city (the city governators doesn't allow GT 5 to recriet the city in the game).

I don't believed it, but just to be sure... is this true ?
