Gran Turismo 5

[Wools]

That's not you, unfortunately that's online racing!

I've pretty much avoided all online modes in racing games as it's awful to play online, but PGR4 & Race Pro had the friendliest and most competitive communities I've ever come across.

If you make it through the 1st corner, then thank yourself lucky.

I have no intention of playing this online.

Do we have a list of the pre-order goodies? I wasn't going to bother, but some of those stealth cars look purdy.

Surely we got to get together for some NTSC-uk gentleman's driving club sessions then?

[Brad]

Good idea. I'll get a name & shame forum set up too ;-)

[Flabio]

Yeah, you have to be playing this with like minded chaps to get any kind of fair race online. Randoms? Forget it.

No, because I'll be the one shunting. :-p

Me!

If it help with the loads time's and it should with 10GB install, I see no reason not to install it.

[Family Fry]

Boris LOL.
I thought M$ wouldn't let you own a PS3, what would Bill say...!

[Number45]

I'm sure it will. Although I wonder if there's a load of GTTV stuff in there as well?

It is the Real Driving simulator you know, that 50 minute install has you browsing car insurance comparison websites to find the best deal for your car, you then have to call up a Glaswegian call centre with your quote only to be quoted ?300 more than what the website. You get passed on from person to person and just as you complete the policy set up, the game loads.
