No 2011 in Gran Turismo 5

I will say this, the muscle car challenge was fantastic. Seeing all those classics on the track like that was something no ther game has really got right. Its a shame it was so brief.
The Forza is less then poop comment makes me wonder.......tell us exactly why its so bad? It is the best console simulation out there period.

FYI, Project gotham and burnout are arcade racers. Full on unrealistic. Forza and GT5 are very realistic and you dont just hold the gas around the entire track.

I used to like GT series but ever since switching to Forza 2 and now 3 I get a little annoyed at GT.
GT never seems to learn from their mistakes. They have always drove good and looked fantastic. But they always had horrile engine sounds way to many versions of the same cars and horrible AI.
I havn't heard about the AI but from what I hear they didn't fix the other problems.
Forza 3 does everything right, sure it doesn't look quite as pretty as GT but its a beautiful game and the total package is fantastic.

GT5 has one thing Forza doesn't: Logitech Wheel (G25/G27) support. This isn't really Forza's fault but more Microsofts for refusing to license products to use on the Xbox, but the Logitech wheels are 100x better than the Microsoft racing wheel and I can't get past that, even if Forza may in fact be the better racing game.

The AI is miles better than in GT4 and a slight improvement over GT5 Prologue. I have been turned around a few times, but that's about it. They no longer slam into you mid corner as if you weren't even there. They will block you going into corners if you don't already have a fender on them. They do make mistakes on the track and will really make you work if you try to block them on a straight. In previous games, they would pick either high or low and if you successfully blocked them they would lift off the throttle and fall back several car lengths. In this game they will keep trying to pass you after a block and will turn you around if you give them an opening. Unfortunately, the AI itself is very slow, and I haven't found an option to increase the difficulty. I'm assuming they get harder whenever you level your driver (the leveling system is pretty much the same as the one in Forza 2).

Using a Fanatec Porsche 911 GT3 RS V2 wheel with clubsport pedals in GT5. Unfortunately, it doesn't work with the XBOX 360. It's a great wheel/pedal combo, if you can justify the cost.

got zero complaints about the game. the driving dynamics are unreal.
i am using a driving force steering wheel though, the feedback you get through it, and driving in cockpit view on a 60" tv 4 feet from it........... its like real life

Look at this promo vid http://www.autoblog.com/2010/11/26/v...aris/#comments
There's a '10+ in it. Looks like a V6 but they credit it as a mustang shelby with 325hp. What??
How come most foreigners think every mustang is a shelby? lol

Still gonna pick it up even though GT5 seems to be pretty underwhelming, hs anybody tried the track editor yet?
And as for current racing games, I've had a blast playing NFS:Shift

+1 on two driving force wheels in front of a 60" TV. With speakers in front side and back in our gameroom. I can't get my wife to the track, but I can get her on GT5. I wish there was a way to have two 60" screens side by side on the same PS3. Is this doable?

Man some of you guys are really slumming it with puny 60" TV's. I prefer game play on my front projector on a 92" screen from 9' away...talk about like being there!! Lol.
I picked up GT5 but lately I've spent more time driving around in the clone of my GT500 in the new Need for Speed Hot Pursuit.
