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

    • On the hot side pipe work, or if you want to compensate for pressure loss from the IC, post intercooler on the cold side, pre-throttle
    • They're notoriously difficult if you traverse forums... the 102TB and FAST102 are so bad that most people actively don't buy it unless they REALLY want that extra 1hp. The idle stuff isn't really that hard. The cam is pretty manageable and while it acts like a larger cam the whole car actually drives smoother than before. I like to just tinker so if I can get 50rpm less variance or rule out situations where it does 'unexpected' things it's fun for me. HOWEVER If you just let a tuner give it a guess for a couple of hours and had no way/desire to test and tweak it yourself you'd spend a lot of money at the tuner or be pretty frustrated, that's for sure. But yeah. Drives great. (then I drive partner's Civic Type R and I think.. well, more tweaking to do) But for what it is (cam, TB, intake, manual etc) it does commute around really great once you figure out how the idle tables and GM's systems intend to work.
    • I usually source pressure on inlet manifold after throttle body
    • Where is the best location for boost pressure source when running mac 3port boost solenoid?  my new turbo does not have a fitting for that on the compressor housing.  how come Garrett make a turbo without that?  im confused 
    • From my memory, which isn't that great, we did have issues getting the large throttle body on my old LS1 to play nicely at idle, first it would stall, then it would only idle at 2k rpm, then it would hang at 2k rpm for a few seconds and then drop and stall, then, finally, the best we got was it would hang at 1.5k rpm for a few seconds then drop to around 800 rpm The tuner stated that large cable throttle bodies are a PITA, and if I wanted anything better than what we ended up with I would need a electronic throttle body and all of the aftermarket ECU stuff to run it
