This game was worth the 60 bucks

[TheDabbinDave]

Bought 2 Collectors Editions (myself & gift for my son, plus 2 Parma guides) and a normal $60 version for a friend as a gift. I really hope some substantial DLC is coming soon.

Gran Turismo is why I'm deeply rooted in the PlayStation camp.

Nordschleife, Touring Cars, Super GT's, Le Mans, and all the non-F1 2011 tracks are just a few reasons why I kept GT5 and why it is worth well more than $60.

I'd say it was worth the money for however long it was I played it. Otherwise I wouldn't have purchased two copies.

Is it possible to just buy the book that people are raving about?

 

[W3H5]

You can find it on E-Bay. It's the Apex one I think they mean. It is cool to have it and rather useful.

 

[FishHunters]

Yeah, though I only paid $43! Took advantage of someone who didn't give it enough of a chance before selling it!

 

[W3H5]

That's the way to do it FH. I had to order mine from HK here because not one shop in this city stocks PS3 games, only 360.

I Bought mine for £46

After the game, 2 wheels, a frame and seat. I am in it for a bit more than $60.00.......worth every penny.

Ehhrrmm... this game was worth every bit of my $300.00 (and that was only the game itself) 👍

Never regret for a sec to put in that amount, and I'll put in more for good DLC.

 

[baio]

Yeah, for me it was worth the 60€ I payed for ( about 80$ )

 

[noisiaturismo]

Playstation 3: 275 euro's
Gran Turismo 5: 40 euro's
Steeringwheel: 60 euro's
How mad I am about not
knowing what's inside Apex: Priceless

I find it interesting how many people will buy Live For Speed, a work-in-progress game with one or two real tracks, one or two real cars, and a handful of fantasy cars and a few fantasy tracks more for around $47 US, and yet complain that Prologue was way too much for a "demo."

Or will buy a game like Forza with DLC you have to buy, and can more than double the cost of the game, and grouch that GT5 was a ripoff.

And then there are the iRacing crowd who will pay... Lord knows how much to get all the content and race for a year - a game you basically rent.

I think too many of us are spoiled when they think the Standard cars are beneath them and won't even try them. There are too many awesome rides you guys are missing out. It's hard not to run the racing Lambo every race in Arcade Mode. Or the M3 GTR, or... heck, there are hundreds of them. And I know cockpit view is the new black in racing games, but what did you do before that was common? Not play racers? Sure...

I'm not sure what the per unit cost of everything would be in GT5, but just on cars alone, the price with my $100 Special Edition is less than ten cents a car. Now THAT is a DLC model I could go for. And I wouldn't dump any of them, even the dinky K cars or wimpy classics, not one Skyline or Miata or Subie.

Sure, I wish GT5 had GT4's content and wealth of races to go with the mass of cars, but like I said, I'd spend that $100 again.
