    Pisspoor qualty video, but from what I CAN see, the night racing and weather effects are going to be awesome. Now for a better quality vid.

    This is one of those games where you ask yourself, how the eff did they make it!? I`m so glad to be a PS3 owner right now. Probably the best racing game of all time!!!

    Now that we have dynamic weather, I have one more request. I plan on running a NASCAR and “Nationwide (using stock Cameros, Challengers, etc)” league. Since some of my races wont be on actual race day, I was wanting to take the race time temp of the last time NASCAR raced at that track so it feel like you had to endure the conditions you saw on the tv. What I mean by this, is that if Daytona was overcast and cloudy and 70 deg and 80% humidity at race time, Id like to start my league race with those base settings, then let the dynamic engine make up what happens as the race progresses. It would be nice, and it may already be in the game that way.

    Would it have killed them to give a definite car and track list THIS time? Dang PD, stop trying to preserve your game’s virginity until its wedding day, lol.

    This game MUST be in THE GUINNESS BOOK OF RECORDS as the one that has done the most significant and AWESOME things with a SINGLE blue-ray disc.

    OMG , a KOMBI! A SO WANT TO DO A SPEEDRUN in Nurbs with that thing… with a NIGHTMARE Weather and at night…

    I really dont care about the standard cars no more…the game is just PERFECT for me… right now, the way it is.

    Is this video really that good? You see, idiot me was going to check gtplanet before I left for work this morning and I was running late so I didn’t get a chance. Then I get to work and, well, you can’t get any videos to work at all. (It’s not fair I say!!). But I don’t think I have ever read more positive comments about any GT video ever. I won’t be home for another three hours. As a GT diehard, how will I feel when I finally see this video? I teared up when I watched the E3 video (wife thought I was nuts). Do I need to have a box of tissues for this one?

      Yeah. You should probably just take your laptop with you into the tub. It’s going to get messy.

      The video quality is terrible, but the content looks amazing, and will be awesome when we get it in HD, not recorded off of a projector screen

    I hope PD will release lots of making of vids. There is so much detail in that game and i`m really interested to know how hard they worked to get all that in the game.

    BIakDragon

    How can people say it looks stunning?
    I can hardly tell what the hell is going on, I saw rain and snow(i think) and some interior views where I could’nt even make out the gauges.
    But, I have no doubt that when they finally put the video itself out in HD it will be damn near the most epic thing in the world.

      Oh, I meant to say later in the movie it looks better but clicked submit first. Still though, will look so much better in HD

    Weather is what the fans have been asking for and PD came through and hooked us up big time lol. Looks really good too, but the rain on that night track looks like instant spin out in a RWD car & massive under steer in a FWD lol.

      We already knew that since GT4’s Tsukuba wet. But maybe, with GT5’s new physics-engine it’s a whole new experience in the wet

  27. Sep. 16, 10:03am
    occasionalracer

    GT5 will undoubtedly set the standard (once again) for racing simulation on consoles and PC. I think everything looks so professional that it’s easy to forget this is a game. The PD team has put some serious effort into every little detail, and left nothing half-assed. This makes Forza look like cartoon.

    • Sep. 16, 12:40pm
      HugoStiglitz_420

      are you (expletive deleted) joking? nothing is half-assed? WHAT ABOUT 80% OF THE (expletive deleted) CARS THAT AREN’T FINISHED!! besides that the game is very well put together & exceeds my expectations so far but they definetly half assed the cars

    Simply now, it’s just perfect.

    But Trial Mountain??? Come on.. Apricot Hill is much better by far…

    • Sep. 16, 10:04am

      Apricot Hill is good too, but we don’t know the full track list yet. So you can still cross your fingers lol

    AGNT009

    Is it just me, or are the wipers notr actually “working” well. I can see that it tries to give the effect it wiped away the rain, but it appears more that the wipers are just passing over the window, and the rain drops, for the most part, look unaffected. I can imagine that was really hard to pull off, and its a valiant effort, but it seems only 50% functional IMO, and at high speed, that may get too unworkable to be truly fun. Reminds me, I need to change the wipers on my real truck.

    • Sep. 16, 9:51am
      MacAlert

      It’s just you. At the speeds the cars are traveling, the wiper can only handle so much at a time. Also, the car is getting sprayed by the car in front.

    • Sep. 16, 9:52am
      Big Ron

      I can see nearly perfect working wipers. In the video they show stormy rain all the time so you know, that stormy rain is too much for wipers also in real life. But most time, they do clean the windows for a second.

  34. Sep. 16, 9:29am
    pasigiri

    Okay …. I think complaints have been brought down a notch … or 10.

    THAT is TRUELY EPIC. IF car count is dropped from 16 to 8, I would not care. But 16 cars WITH those effects??? Unbelievable. I can’t wait.

    You have got to congratulate PD they’ve done an outstanding job on this game/simulation. 5 years and well worth the wait. The content – 1000 cars….over 100 tracks…the depth and detail is like nothing any game has attempted let alone accomplished before. I’m just so amazed they’ve managed to get it all on 1 bluray disc?

    Any idea when the HD video will be available???

    • Sep. 17, 2:49am

      Yes, now we can see, there was a reason for the long wait. It simply couldn’t be done any faster. Now imagine GT6 coming on 2 blueray-discs (probably):-D

    • Sep. 16, 8:00am
      Luke

      Of course it is dynamic. PD wouldn`t include that feature into the game if we would have to race a whole 24h endurance race in rainy weather.

      Now, please correct me if i`m wrong. GT5 will be the first racing game where we are able to drive a full length 24h race with weather effects and day/night cycle and ressources ? (ressources = drivers, tyres, fuel, damage, … )
