Is anyone buying a PS3 just for this game? I am wondering if I should just go buy a unit now or wait for some GT5+Console bundle..

I bought a PS3 just for this game, but that was a few years ago :)

I'm glad this game only came up on my radar recently (despite being a diehard GT fan). Painful to see people posting way back in 2008 as if the game was just months away.

Question.. I haven't played GT5 Prologue but a friend (a GT veteran) says that playing in 'professional' mode with the controller is very hard. Apparently it's like there is little or no self-centering so it's difficult to control.

Anyone experienced this? Maybe it's designed for use with a wheel, not a controller.

I've played GT5P at my cousin's house with his G25 and got really used to it on professional physics (I don't have a PS3 so i've only played a few times). I was there again last week and we couldn't be bothered setting up the G25 so we just used the regular controller. I adjusted to it very quickly even with professional physics on and could make adjustments to my line etc etc (of course with a G25 you could make more slight adjustments) whenever i wanted. I even played online and had some very interesting races where your skill was needed through the corners and not just drafting off the person infront of you on the straight to overtake. In other words, i found the controller to be fine on professional physics but i was using a R35 and not a high powered rwd (also used an integra too).

But cars can be flipped! Just ask Mark Webber lol! Twice in an LM Mercedes CLK-GTR that thought it was a part of the German Luftwaffe and once in his trusty Red Bull RB6 that gave him wings! :P

The latest trailers do seem to show cars flipping...

But my feeling is that its a race simulator, not a crash simulator. It is gonna be fun seeing the result of bumping panels during a race but I don't think full on crash damage, loss of panels etc really adds much to the game IMO.

You shouldn't be busting up these lovely cars anyway :P

    • You now say stumble, but you said cut out before. Will it slow rev through the cut/stumble? What gap were your spark plugs set to when you them in?
    • I had double clamped all the pipes but I checked them over any way, everything tight and secure. feels and sounds like a electrical short/failure, as it is an abrupt and aggressive stumble, that instantly comes and goes right at 4k mark...like clock work fuel pump and filter are new new coils and plugs injectors where cleaned and tested 200 miles plus ago no black smoke cleaned MAF   same results, other ideas? some other sensor?  
    • Yes, just without the annoying use of the word hybrid. We stopped using that term 20 years ago when we realised it meant different things to different people. Even "highflow" can represent more than one way of achieving the goal of getting more flow out of a turbo. But at least it says what it does on the box.
    • OH, when they say "solid buckets", I always interpeted that as "shimless". (Which is not the same as the "shimness word I invented above to represent the same idea that the buckets act as shims also!!). Still the same problem though. So it appears that buying a "kit" from Tomei is a two step process. Makes sense. Doesn't make sense in the context of a "kit" though.
