I whipped it out for the first time in ages on the weekend... took well over an hour to update a measly 900mb. It was fun for a while, but the same old niggles still put me off.

  • Races add challenge by putting you 25 secs behind the leader and expect you to catch up in 7 laps in a 400pp FF
  • Some car sounds are shonky
  • Wanting to buy a specific car and they remain hidden in the used car section for an eternity
  • crap UI
  • music changing songs at every new menu. Could learn a few lessons from EA games.

Attempted 3D on ma new TV, and of course the 3D settings dont have a test option, so you have to exit settings, load up garage and load up a car (which takes a frustratingly long time) and if youre not happy, have to go back to the settings for more trial and error.

I was raised on GT3, had high hopes for this game. one day i'd like to play a good console car sim

i did 3d on my mums tv, its was ok. Not mind blowing.

What wasn't ok was a few months later (2 weeks ago) when i put the game back on my current TV for the first time since, just as the main menu is to appear - no picture but full sound. Major pain in the arse, but a few googles later told me i needed to create a new PS3 profile, load up the game, write down the exact sequence of button selections to turn OFF 3D settings, and then do it blindly. Worked but what a pain!

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
