Pre ordered this about 1 week ago for £17.99.

I really want the Logitech G25 wheel, but how do you justify paying £150+ on a 'toy'.

Good man shawty, good man.

Aye the G25 is a bit expensive, there may be alternatives about for a better price, but will it be as good?

I guess it's like paying a lot of money for a high end graphics card if you're a PC gamer. If you play a lot of driving games it really enhances the level of realism and enjoyment and being compatible with bot the PC and PS3 makes it a very attractive purchase if you can convince yourself that it's worth parting with the cash. There are/will be some great games on both platforms which support it: GTR2, GT Legends, Race, LFS, TOCA series etc

Will you download Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, or will you buy the Blu-ray disc? Well, you may want to go to your local retail store and pick up the physical disc version. "Beyond the Apex" is a video documentary that's exclusively available on the Blu-ray disc. This is a behind-the-scenes feature, which talks to various folks involved with, and inspired by, the legendary driving simulation game.

Mate, you're a legend. 3 more days to wait.

Also, can anyone who's ever pre-ordered from Game, confirm that sometimes they deliver the game the day before? I am sure I have read/heard somewhere that it's been known to happen.

Apparently, GT5 Prologue has already hit 1 million pre-orders.

I dont use Game - normally use Play for my orders and pretty much always arrive the day before - sometimes 2 days;)

Gutted :(:(:(:(

-Edit-

More on the 1 million pre-orders. That makes it Platinum before it's even been released. :shocked:

Added to the fact that you can get Top Gear content is going to make this game the best game released. (Until GTA IV)

Wont this be in the PS Store on thursday?

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
 
I have just read here that GT5 Prologue could be the platform for a full game with updates constantly being downloaded.

Now considering that a full game retails with a mark up price of £39.99 - £49.99 then I think that the updates will be charged for and not free. If this is the case, then I will be disappointed.

Updates are made to the Playstation store every Thursday according to the UK Playstation 3 forums. You could well see this in the store for download tomorrow or tomorrow midnight. 1.9Gb (estimated), then there is always the chance that VM will STM you or play silly beggars and disconnect you via a fault. :D:D:D
