Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
Some GT5P footage here with the G25 racing wheel in use. Don't try this at home kids (the racing boots and gloves that is).

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
This is the game which tips the scales in favour of the ps3 over the xbox for me. Saving my pennies and hope to be getting one very soon.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
If I could afford it right now. I would buy one of those chairs with the steering wheel and pedals, just for my living room.
Trouble is my wee boy would break it. He's obssesed with cars. He's only 4 and he's going to be upset that there are no Porsche's in the line up. On the other hand he loves Lambo's.
Nice footage Uncle Peter. Is that The Stig?
Also a shame they are not putting the Top Gear track in Prologue.

Just do it you will not regret it.
Don’t forget you get a Blue ray DVD player for the same price.
We need to hold a CF tournament when it comes out.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
I'll be getting this. Not sure I'll be on it too often though. Still play my 360 more.

We will be able to do that when they introduce Private Racing in an update. I hope we don't have to wait that long for it. They are also planning to release Voice Chat at the same time as Private Racing. This will not be included in the game straight away.

I like how Sony though have given Europe more content than the Japanese. About time Sony gave us Europeans some TLC.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
It's a shame we've been kept waiting for so long for the full GT5 release but that's the nature of the beast that is Polyphony Digital I guess. They always seem to get more out of the Sony consoles than any other developer though. I'm holding out for the full release before investing in a PS3 tbh. Being able to use the G25 with this game is a massive selling point for sure.

Re: Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
Just been looking at the PS3 UK website and they have set out some details regarding Online play.
Here
I would rather Polyphony take their time in releasing it as it will be a great game. I am also glad that Rockstar did the same for GTA IV. I am hoping though that people who have Prologue will be able to get the final release discounted and/or be able to keep all saved data from Prologue into the main game.
