I believe the HDD install is optional?

Yea you're probably right although if the load times are like prologue I would prefer to install it.

Here's a link I saw on Wikipedia about a guy in Czech Rep who got the game and gave live text updates of his progress through it. Its not as insightful as I thought it would be but is still interesting.

It edges on being a SPOILER though, just to warn you.

LO f**king L, I just rang HMV to pre-order and some woman said it was canceled because it was too big to fit on the disk! There was no getting through to this woman either! I rang back and a guy said there was alot of new people hired, he took my pre-order:)

She should probably be fired for that sort of thing. Word can spread fast when its the release of a massive video game.

Where does GT fall in terms in driving realism? More than Forza? It's been a while since I played a GT game (PS2 days).

The old GT games were terrible for realistic driving, TOCA was far better. But this new one looks to be the dogs though.

I have a wheel ordered, wheelstand ordered and game ordered. Roll on Wednesday!

Man thats a bad one!:D

I've just realised my favourite track in GT isn't in 5, Seattle. I'm gutted.:mad:

I wonder if in the future they might make some tracks DLC.

I was told you can't change the alloys on standard cars in GT5 but you can put those stupid spoilers on your car, is that true? That kinda sucks if so...

Do you work for Sony or Polyphony Digital? If not then your opinion is no better than any other "Joe Soap".

If I could have given this a thumbs down, I would have. There are so many areas a person could work in that would put them in contact with GT5 pre public release. It's ok for a person to know more about a particular topic than you.

Sisko

He got pwned enough when Helix not only showed him up by stating his job but getting the release pretty much spot on.

Mister men

This game is going to be epic. I hope the servers will be able to take the pressure in online play.

That_Guy

Wasn't actually gonna buy this but I may buy it as an early present for myself and the aul fella.

So are any of the game shops doing a midnight release...??

How about 24hr Tesco's?

buttersbrady

Do the general public even know GT 5 is comming out? There's been no tv ad's at all.

How can Sony be so rubbish at promoting games? If Nintendo or Microsoft had a game half as good as Gran Turismo they'd be shouting it from the rooftops!

Rang ASDA Enniskillen. They will be selling it from midnght on Tuesday.:D

WolfForager

Probably will be alot of ads nearer to xmas.

Agree. With all of the new releases that have come out lately like COD BOps ect they probably wont bother until a couple of week after its release imo.

I'm going to check with the Maynooth store today. Also Game in the City Centre opened at midnight for Black Ops, I'll check with them also!

That_Guy

I remember Gamestop said via Twitter that they wouldn't be having any midnight launches.

LookingFor

My order's been dispatched from the UK, can't wait

Mike Litoris

OK, embarrassingly I couldn't get an answer out of anyone in Tesco Maynooth:p.

Rang Game in Dawson St, they wont be opening early and they dont reckon any of their other stores will be either.:mad:
