Please make your selection: The XBOX 360 has a better GPU The XBOX 360 implementation of the IBM PowerPC CPU is better for games The XBOX 360 security / anti-piracy measures still actually work Mi

Because a car racing game where the developer release a way to start races when you're not there must be jam packed with racing excitement.

never had this issue...why sign up for a race, if your not gonna be there?? and i love the way you can get a group of friends together and everyone can just screw around on the track while waiting for the others to show up (people are always late)

i think its called anticipation, hence why the thread was started. im pretty sure the initial release was always gonna be around this time anyways (thats what i heard from day one of the PS being released) and it was always said it wasnt going to be released till crazy eccentric Japanese developer guy was happy with it. people just got impatient and started complaining..

and there were what 3 forza's in that time?? quantity over quality, the xbox way :cheers:

ahahaha what do you mean?

given that GT5 was GT4 with a new set of shoes on (seriously most of the cars looked like straight ports), I fail to see WHERE these extra years of development went. I was expecting something mindblowing, I got GT4 with cars that refuse to turn, with graphics on par with Forza 2.

Delusional.

Forza 2005, Forza 2 2007, Forza 3 2009. Two years is quantity over quality? I think that's just being able to finish a project.

Some of the BS I have seen people spout about Forza 3 it's just mind dumbing, either they have such a huge hardon for GT5 it gets in the way of them playing Forza 3 or they've just never played it.

In an interview with some game reviewer company. One GT5 developer said that GT5 was pushed back due to other projects (eg. GT 5 Prologue & PSP GT5).. So i don't think it was all about making this awesome game.. That was prob alot of rumour due to how long it was taking and alot of PS3 users bought the console mainly for GT5

And what do you mean the xbox way? The same developer of games make the PS3 ones also.. Your argument for why xbox is shit is invalid. They are both good at being consoles.. But quality over quantity? Is that why alot of games have better quality on xbox? eg. COD Black Ops

Most people (especially xbox or pc fans or just gt haters) get completely messed up when calculating how long it took to make gt5. They assume that gt5 went into production the moment gt4 was finished. They also forget that there were 3 mini gt5 games released before gt5 plus gt for psp. They also ignore the fact that the physics engine from gt5 prologue was scrapped and wasn't used in gt5. And finally, gt5 only had 2 official release date delays. The first from march to November then the few week delay then. Any other 'delay' was purely off rumoured release dates. If i start a rumour saying that forza 4 is coming out tomorrow then if or when it comes out i can rant on about how delayed it has been like all the forza fans do about gt5.

Does anyone remember the old nissan patrol ads with the old guy saying "i've always been a cruiser man". Well that is what the ps3 vs xbox or gt5 vs forza debate will always be like (with either side being the grumpy old cruiser owner who is refusing to acknowledge any good points about the other console/game).

Despite polyphony digital bringing out other gt games between gt4 and gt5, it still took too long.

Look at mgs for instance. They brought out 3 games and mgs4 still came out on schedule mid 2008. Same goes for gow3; who started from scratch and after a team structure change also. Both games are awesome and it is VERY obvious that a lot of work went into them. Gt5 otoh isn't as obvious as one would think.

Btw, I'm not bagging gt5, I like the game... I was just expecting a LOT more than a polished gt4 with some weather effects.

I don't think either console is shit.. They are both good for playing games. Saying PS3 or Xobx is shit by comparing Farza and GT5 is stupid. That's like watching a DVD movie and not enjoying it. Then turn around saying the DVD player is shit because of that..

Haters gonna hate

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
