Just to note, 'Logical' is actually 'Logicool', the Japanese name for Logitech.

Had a couple of goes on the Alps track and they've added a lot more detail to it. There's more spectators, tress etc and it seems that they've individually modelled each blade of grass and each flower that lines the track!!

[huxley]

Just about to start (been takin pictures innit)

[MarioMark]

Great stuff Huxley, thanks Kryss. The games only been out 2 hours and we already have a translation!

I'm just installing it now.

The London track is gorgeous!

I did my first race on Fuji in about the only car that I could afford (A swift I think it is) and lost it on the first corner!

[MarioMark]

It looks stonking!

Proper HDTV benchmarker!

Just gonna quote these shots from the demo thread to add to the bunch.

Some impressions...

Plays like GT.
Cars look amazing.
London track is really nice.
Music is mostly good. The original music especially. Trophy screen music sounds like it was done by Paul McCartney.

The game, like the demo on the odd occasion suffers a slight drop in framerate along with screen tearing. However, these are minor and not damaging to the experience.

So far, I'm impressed.

Have only got as far as buying a Golf GTi so far, but it impressed with the menus!

[VR46]

I bought a Golf also, initially saw 3.5m credits and went straight to the Ferrari showroom, oops. Only had time for couple of races, but looks and plays perfectly so far, love the real time info for the tracks etc.

Front-end presentation is smoother than a babies bum

Will give it the time it deserves tonight.

This is on the japanese PSN store right? How much is it please?

[ChrisF]

Oddly enough I headed straight for the Ferrari showroom first as well, and was equally as disappointed to not be able to afford anything Only marginally off being able to afford a Z4 as well!

So the cars in the game - is that the lot for Prologue? Seems to be 2 of each manufactorer?

4500 Yen. Get yourself a 5000 yen card off ebay, job done!

[Jebus]

Isn't that about £20? For a demo?

(Just want to be clear)
