Anyone getting fooled into buying GT5?

[TripleA]

driving games suck. Something like Rock n Roll racing is 10x more fun then forza and gt

Mario Kart > Gran Turismo >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Larry King's anus >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Forza.

It is the way it is.

[Sho Nuff]

I'm going to play the shit out of Hot Pursuit until

1.) My wheel arrives
2.) This game unfucks itself

You wanna trade cars  ?

ain't got shit yet, not bothering until later...read above post

You haven't unlocked anything but you're quitting?

Have fun with NFS.

Perhaps you missed the part where I stated I wouldn't be playing GT5 until 1.) my wheel arrived and 2.) the game unfucked itself

I've played GT5 for a few hours and I've already unlocked cars. How is it that you have played it for longer than I have and haven't unlocked anything?

It's just strange that's all.

You are literally the most boring person on this website.

Looking forward to playing people who actually have GT5 

[TripleA]

This will be my first big purchase.

Putting him on ignore was the first thing I did after my account was approved, even before my very first post.

It was suggested in the registration form, right above the "I am 13 y/o" checkbox.

No contest.

[Great Rumbler]

So is GT5 like FFXIII, where you have to play it for 25 hours before it starts to get decent?

[cool breeze]

wait, that level 40 advance damage thing wasn't a joke? uh, wow. That's unreal.

[Sho Nuff]

By the way, wtf are the museum cards? I keep getting 5 of them daily but have no idea how I can turn them in. Everything is just blank in the museum.

[Bebpo]

wait, that level 40 advance damage thing wasn't a joke? uh, wow. That's unreal.

Yeah ^^;

Dec 1st patch is dropping the level hopefully to LEVEL 1.

[Sho Nuff]

That means you can now experience this



And this



Gummi Cars

No, GT5 is actually good.

Brodernizing GT5 is not something a GT fan should look forward to.

[TripleA]

Beautiful.

[Great Rumbler]

Now why don't you post some of that awesome gameplay footage?

[TripleA]

I don't have a capture card for my Ps3 

[TripleA]

Wow @Jeff Gordon, terrible lip-sync 

[Sho Nuff]

wooo stretchy cars

[Raban]

Oh man, the player must've left his car in sunlight for too long. Don't people know GT5 has real-time UV radiation? Thanks to the power of Cell, leaving your car in direct sunlight will cause the exterior to warp and melt. Of course, this feature is only unlocked at level 15.

I'm not the one on defense patrol. I've posted about 4 times in the thread. You've posted about 100 because you are a fanboy who's game is under seige. Don't get it twisted jackass.

You're cute when you're mad 

Keep on spinning. Keep on posting pics. Keep on talking about Forza 3. Keep on being the joke you are. You're not cute when you do it, but that's the extent of your internet skills.

WTF is this, some IGN board or some shit? 

[Cormacaroni]

Sho Nuff, I think you need to man up and post your receipt already. We're all getting wise to your little game.

[brawndolicious]

Somebody on gaf posted some decent comparison shots.

photomode models:

gameplay models:

Both games use higher poly meshes for the photomode/menu models while the poly count for the meshes that are used during gameplay and replays are a fraction of that.  I think both games basically look identical.

Since this entire thread is a tribute to fanboyism on either side then yes. The entire thread is some IGN shit. Might as well fully go there then.

IGN has been a junkyard ever since Matt left.

Anyways back to the best racing simulator:



I'll start taking my own photomode shots once I get the Maserati

Then you have not played both games. Either that or you're playing in standard definition, because the premium models in GT5 look an entire generation ahead of anything on both Ps3 and 360.

In fact, it is only the shadow resolution (on the cars) and effect pixelation that remind you that you're playing on limited hardware. But to be fair to GT, there are still PC games that struggle like fuck with effects cranked up - so yeah.

Sorry, I threw away the receipt. And I don't have a camera either. You're just going to have to take my word for it

Excellent article: <a href="http://nexgenblog.wordpress.com/2010/11/27/gran-turismo-5-nitpicking-exceeds-expectations/">Gran Turismo 5 Nitpicking Exceeds Expectations</a>

[Raban]

Despite being released to a metascore of 86 and selling 1.8 million copies worldwide in just two days (to put that in perspective, Halo Reach still hasn’t sold that much in EMEAA countries), Gran Turismo 5 has suffered a barrage of bitch slaps by fanboys since its release.

[Great Rumbler]

the PS3 community demonstrated extraordinary hubris and even started the in-game model comparisons, frequently comparing screenshots to Forza 3 and declaring it “a game-changer” and “better than real life” way before the first actual gameplay footage had been released.

Oh look.

The fact of the matter is that Gran Turismo 5 is nowhere near a flop

We can all dance.

EMEAA=made up vg charts numbers
 
 
Apparently they now even have something that "tracks" PC DD sales,true AAA website

There is a better damage control article somewhere,not about numbers though

[TripleA]

I'm sorry, what is EMEAA?

Also, is it really surprising that the latest game in a 13 year old franchise debuts strong on a platform currently devoid of any real exclusives for the holiday season?

Define 'real exclusives'.

Good, for a second there I thought you were doubting the worldwide performance of GT5

Yeah, not a game for PlayStation Move. This is Sony's only core title for the holiday making.

Thanks for the breakdown, it's nice to know you consider core-titles to be the only 'real exclusives'.

Some beautiful shots of the Mini Cooper S:

I don't think anyone in their right mind thinks The Fight or Kinect Sports are real exclusives. Their causal fodder that holds no weight with the core audience.

Yeah, they're fake exclusives.

Hey, guys, have you heard of this new game called 3DMark 11? It totally blows away any other game out there right now; PC, console, doesn't matter. The graphics are just so stunning, I can't even stop staring at it long enough to play!

[TripleA]

This brings back fond memories

If you like GT5, you'll love Poser!

Imagine driving your Kart here, slowly turning as the sprite trees follow suit.

Imagine.

If it looked an entire generation ahead then it wouldn't look the same in a side-by-side comparison shot.  Hell, the only difference I can see in any of the shots is the better tire texture on the evo in FM3.
