Gt5 Is Ready

[Spurdo]

The Camera is the PS3 Eye (standard camera), and it has been implemented, it tracks your head so if you move it it will copy the movements on screen, I don't know how useful it will be but it is there, and you can look around the pillar if you need to.

Some of the reviews say that it is a little laggy, but I guess it is wait and see what happens on release day.

i think i'll be optimistic about this feature then. i think kazunori yamauchi seems to do a fantastic job of deciding which features are worthwhile implementing and which are not. so anything that he has approved of should work pretty good.

Is Track IR compatible with the PS3?

as far as my research shows, its only useable with windows at this point in time. but it looks like they are interested in implementing it with games consoles.. watch this space i guess

yea that would be a pain in the ass to have to move your head around. with my current setup, if i moved my head 10 degrees in any direction i wouldnt be looking at the tv anymore lol

you'd have to move your head while keeping your eyes looking at the tv

[dark-knight]

so anyone know how 'limited' the signature edition actually is?

[mad082]

i'm guessing it is slightly limited (probably an inital run but no repeated production runs), but not like 'only a few thousand in the world' type of limited.

that said, if i start hearing that places are selling out and they are selling in ebay for more than what they retail for, and i happen to go past a shop with one in-store, i will buy it and stick it straight on ebay. one of the joys of living in a smaller town. may may get smaller quantities of stuff, but they also sell out slower.

There are a some on ebay that have been there for a few weeks selling for about $400. Just search gran turismo and filter by highest price.

[mad082]

that isn't really anything usefull though as the game hasn't been released yet. it won't be until all the shops start selling out that the prices will start to go up. at the moment all you are paying for is a pre-order.

probably limited by how many they can sell!

Ah yeah true, the prices should go up later on.

GT5 has been delayed which would probably include Aus in there too. Hopefully its just until the end of november/early december but we don't know at the moment. Maybe now I can finish my uni exams before it comes out hmmmmm

[mad082]

i saw yesterday that russia had had their release date postponed, and now i turn up to work and it's everywhere. what a bunch of useless fuckwits.

my money is that it now won't be released until next year some time and it's probably because some other game was going to be coming out and they got scared, and instead of either manning up and facing the competition or delaying the other title, they delay their most anticipated game and more than likely lose sales from it.

[Marlin]

If you were me would you ask for a refund on your fully paid Ebay pre-order?

[mad082]

depends on when they announce as the next release date. it's up to you though. you certainly have grounds to do so as they will no longer be able to supply you the game at the advertised date

Black Ops is coming out this year. One of the articles on IGN or 1up was suggesting that this might be the reason for delaying GT5, so that it doesn't clash with the release of Black Ops.

[bozodos]

haha or it's feature creep like it has been for the past year or so

[zebra]

Why am I not surprised it has been delayed, my bet is it isnt finished yet

[mad082]

nah it will be finished, it will just be that there is some other game coming out and sony is just a bunch of pussies

or they have more pre-orders than what they expected and instead of having them sell out they are just delaying it until they have greater stock numbers

[DivHunter]

not enough rage

[Mr Eps]

never enough rage. there can never be enough rage for this.

im going to burn a sony flag. srslah.

[Darmanin10]

Early November Black ops comes out as well as need for speed hot pursuit around the same time. I dont know if you would call the second one competition but. anyways......

still wtf, this thread started in JUNE last year and the op was like, "its ready and almost here..............."

NOPE...... a year and bit later on and they announce even more delays..........WTF
