so what are everyone's times and rankings on the demo?

im at 1'40.931 and 1'55.360, ranked 6306. i need to work on the stock car and knock off a few seconds to be happy with what ive done. but im only 5 secs of the leader in the tuned car, pretty respectable for no wheel.

Not good enough to post.

Last time I checked about 15,000 overall.

well, get on it son. hit those apexes and control those slides. but those cars are terrible to drive. if the real 370 drove anything like it, it would be miserable.

Delayed again.

Sony has announced an indefinite delay to the Japanese launch of Gran Turismo 5 (GT5), the latest instalment of a massively complex and popular driving simulation game thought to have cost more than $60 million (£37 million) to develop and for which fans have been waiting in vain for years.

The delay will probably derail Sony’s plans to “bundle” the PlayStation 3 console together with the new game to boost sales during the critical spring sales period in Japan.

****ing awesome.

delayed indefinately? eep.
although what they said about sorting out bugs, i can symphathise (and maybe turn 10 could have worked a little harder at it..)

The making of GT5 can no longer be termed game development...in reality it is a bloated hobby and obsession of the GT series creator....at the expense of Sony.

nothing but....but it was a bitch and no easier...lol

I might give it a go again this weekend...the process is annoying since I need to hookup my PS3 to my PC setup...and the picture looks all funny...

Isn't it all the same company?

Yes it is... but I think the tail is wagging the dog in this case more than it being a symbiotic relationship.

[RacingManiac]

isn't all the Japanese based killer-app for PS3 like this? MGS4 had a tough birth(and probably just as niche of a game).....

I've seen some demo videos lately of GT5 running on some kind of new 3D technology. Heard some rumor that the latest delay has to do with PD trying to fully implement this new tech into the game. Monumental waste of time...of course. Just iron out all the current bugs and release the damn thing already.

not buying a new TV for this...no way....
