Any Gran Turismo 5 Players Out There?

[WGNPWR]

I use the Logitech Driving Force GT wheel. I was $138 when GT5 came out, I bought it from Dick Smith. I couldn't justify the G27's cost, to my wallet & my wife

This ^^

And i love it.

One of my mates bought a g27, its super nice, but the forceGT does what i need

just went to play and there is a new update out (3.56)

i wanted to do the seasonal events too, so now i have to wait

weird thing is that on the sony site it only lists the 3.55 as latest

Hopefully the new update fixes the random freeze ups I've been having. Keep getting stuck on the grey "GT" loading screen.

How big is the update Tom? The ps3's wireless is so slow. Takes forever to download big updates.

[pipster11]

yeah it took a while, prob 30 mins to downoad and them some time to install

i had a few freezes before

thanks for the car btw, i did that race and got 2,000,000 straight up and went from level 12 a-spec to 18

so the wait to play was definitely worth it

my biggest mistake was i ignored bspec until i got up to about professional in aspec. i had to go back and buy alot of cars i sold just to compete in those races.

I've made the same mistake... Currently running at level7 in B-spec, and around level 15 in A-spec.

Most of my time playing until this week was with friends over playing Arcade mode in split screen.

I had a massive freeze-up then the PS3 glitched out while I was online with Cam (iamhe) last night. Had to force the PS3 to shut down, then when it rebooted it had to do a restore before it would work again.

Also, the battery in my BT headphones were dead, so now that they're charged I'll have to see if they actually work.

Jeez, how hard is it to charge a battery before you play?

Nice to see your GT350 out there though

(btw, I usually do a 10min practice prior to the race so everyone can pick their cars, set 'em up and get familiar with the track - was thinking about setting up a 30 lap race at De Sarthe with varying conditions next time, could make things interesting... Maybe Sunday evening? Oh, and karts in the rain are certainly interesting and frustratingly funny)

[zei20l]

damn i crashed again, how about next race we turn off the damage?

hmm yeah im no good at this track, lets change it! which really means "im sh1t at this game i need you to make it easier"

[iamhe77]

One bloody whinging POM!!

but you forgot the "Shit... FOOK, FOOK.... Aaah FOOK!!" when he spun and hit the wall.

Repeatedly.

Regardless of vehicle/track.

And we all loved it, which is why I made Rob a "friend"

[zei20l]

ahh yeah gotta get him back so i can beat someone around a track

then again, the stagea hauls ass

[spoolin12]

Hey Guys. My PSN is spoolin12. Keen to race! I suck though. Haven't had much time to play it... (The excuses begin!)

Chris.

[phoenix88]

i bought a ps3 just so i could drive the stagea in this game. My PSN is GTRWGN

[bubba]

Anyone running a wheel? I have been looking at the Logitech G27...

I've got a G25 and it's a nice bit of kit, looking at ways to firm up the H shifter and brake pedal though. There is a REALLY flash brake pedal available for the G25/27 with a hydraulic piston but it's $250

[Jetwreck]

good gaming with Cam, James, Chris and someone else(cannot remember his name)

Was good to do online with some good clean drivers!

Cannot wait for the next one with some more people.......hopefully I can find some competition!

P.S. Need faster car!

Yeah, definitely need to get about 10 on at the same time.

Competition? I believe you only "won" 2 races last night mate

Hoping that Chris can get his internet connection sorted for the next go-around

[Sunkist]
