i think there is the gt5 prologue (haven't played it yet), so i would assume that there is in the game as well

oh yeah sweet, hope its done well. a lot of games that have drifting aren't real good (playable wise) i do like GRID tho. the drifting in that is really cool

But why would you use a "waving-a-magic-wand" controller for a car racing game anyway?

Maybe for Mario Kart, but GT?

And no game shop can tell you the release date yet because they don't know.

If they do give you a date at this stage then they're full of crap.

No, no... I meant that Sony will obviously want the largest possible audience exposure to their "magic wand", so what better game than GT5 to do so?

Completely agree with what you said. Steering wheel + pedals, if not that then just the normal controller... forget motion control with a stick for a car sim.

btw, Mario Kart + Wavebird = WIN

do a youtube search on it. i haven't personally played it, but it appears to be good (realistic).

look at what's second on the list. this is the second site i have found with a release date for pre orders. i'm guessing that they know that a release date is due to be announced at any moment, so they are just trying to secure as many sales as early as possible so are just making up bullshit dates and will just change them when they actually know what it is.

JB have the GT5 release date as the 1st of October i think...can't really remember. But yeah they are most probably fake as you said, heres a nice list of the release dates over the years

GTP

lol sony havent announced a date yet, but i have a feeling it will come soon at E3. then only to be delayed even further.

In anycase i've been play prologue, its not the full thing but its freaking awesome.

wow, none of us, or any of the sites we get our info from, had even considered this........

sorry that was a bit harsh. i think that if they do indeed announce a date at E3 then it will be pretty much the date that the game is released on. i think that sony knows that if they delay it much longer they will start losing fans (and sales), and if they announce a release date and then delay it again it will really hurt their brand image. i think that the only way it will get delayed again is if there is actually a serious issue...... but then i may also be a bit optimistic/dillusional......

sony has started to really step up the gt5 advertising now. the car they are sponsoring in the le mans 24 hour actually has GT5 logos rather just the GT logo that they were using previously. they have a playable demo at the race as well. all signs are pointing to a definate release date at E3, and the date being soon.

jb and eb games have had pre-order available for a few weeks now (was mentioned earlier in the thread) but they don't actually know when it will be out yet. would be funny if the japan release date wasn't until december and we weren't going to get it until next year. would make jb and eb games look stupid...... but would make me a sad panda

I must admit despite the 350 year wait for the GT5 i'm still really excited about it, I am hoping it not only lives up to the hype but makes Forza 3 look like shit, especially considering both my 360's are f**ked :D

Here's the latest GT5 Trailer from E3

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
