You know you have ALREADY played GT5 too much when...

When you fantasise about running into bob on the street, punching him right in the centre of his face as hard as you can and then stabbing him in the throat with your car keys.
 
I'm serious here:

When the doctor diagnoses "eyes strain" as the cause of your headaches, and explains that watching TV and/or playing computer games a lot are the cause.
 
...when after an endurance race, you realize your t-shirt is sweaty after sitting in the same place on the couch for two hours.
 
...i see an Audi S4 on the streets and say, oh thats a standard car :lol:

We'd have to say that for most cars.
:irked:

When you have a fender bender at 70mph but think your car will be okay because you are driving a standard car on level 6.

GT5 taught me that I can ram my car into a concrete wall at 200 MPH (if it would somehow get going that fast) and continue without even scratching the paint.
 
...When your GT-R GT500 Stealth holo-card thing (from the first print) replaces the picture of your wife in your wallet.
Guilty.
 
...You co-drive for you taxi driver on the way to work. (Even when he doesn't speak your language!)
 
....You are suprised when you enter the auto-shop/garage for new tires and are suprised when you are not dismissed in under 10 seconds.
 
Alright, I've got a few.

You know it may be time to take a break from GT5 for a while when...

* You see snow has covered your route to work and your first instinct is to think "Alright...let's DANCE."

* You have a grudging respect for NASCAR drivers because you realize how hard their job is.

* You start hearing a piano improvisation every time you watch documentaries about car assembly lines.

* You refer to mass-produced cars as "Dupes."

* You expect full oil changes to take no more than three or four seconds.

* You watch WWII documentaries expecting the Nazis in Kubelwagens to go three wide and start jostling with each other.

* MST3K episodes during the Pearl Forrester era make you think of Top Gear even if you've never seen the show before.

* You watch episodes of Cyber Formula and all of a sudden your palms get sweaty and you're counting off milliseconds and you don't quite know why.
 
You've played too much GT5 when you notice that, all of a sudden while racing for what only seemed like an hour, your voice starts to get deeper and you start to grow hair in places that should not be mentioned.
 
You've played too much GT5 when you notice each Prius that drives by and say to yourself "Thats the most useless premium car in GT5"
 
I got another one not specifically for GT5

You know you've played too much Gran Turismo when you sign up for gtplanet.net
 
1. When you apply for a job as a course architect, and start making complete changes as soon as the owner decides to make it less complex:indiff:

2. When you are driving in real life, you think the shadows are way too smooth:D

3. When you are driving to work each day, you expect to gain more and more Experience points:tup:

4. When you realise how awesome your SatNav is;)
 
When you try to put new oil in your car from underneath it, and wonder why it didn't work.

When you forget how to properly park your car.

When you give up karting because you can't afford to go around the world.

When your wife just gave birth to your new baby, and when they ask you what you want to name him/her, you spend an hour asking them to give random names until you find one you like.
