GT5 > GT4 > GT3 > GT2 > GT1
In terms of driving, that's honestly the only answer*.
In terms of game, when I bought GT5 I thought GT4 was a better game, but with the possibilities of patches and seasonals and whatnot, I now think GT5 is the best game. I mean, those Expert Seasonals made all my money worth it when I won with my own tunings!

I was 10 or 11 when I played Gran Turismo 1, so my judgement isn't that valuable

GT5 > GT4 > GT3 > GT2 > GT1
GT5's got loads of shit wrong with it and there's many missed opportunities; It's even losing some of its lustre in the sim market, but I can't deny it's better than GT4. And that was better than GT3 etc.. The driving has always improved and that's the most important thing.

I'd put GT PSP on top of 4 and Prologue actually.
But otherwise yeah, they all were pretty much better then the previous game.

Really? oO You sure you didn't just cut on those 3 previous laps?
Makes sense to invalidate the next lap cause you could gain a speed advantage over the starting line by cutting, although they should only invalidate on the areas near the finish.

how does one get a 1:15 on this track with comfort softs - that's insane, is this with no driver aids?
i can't try the seasonal so i had to run in offline time trial mode and could only manage a 1:17.268 during a 15 lap run/all driver aids off/sim steering. an on the fly brake balance change helps a lot with turn in for the last two corners but the car is on the ragged edge and i can't see where two seconds can come from.
could somebody please download the fastest lap replay (pal version) and host it?

You are allowed to use Traction Control but you can't edit the car setup.
No I've had this problem. Sometimes if I go off and hit an invisible wall it would pop up saying next lap invalid then if I'm still spinning from the same collision and hit the wall again it will pop up again saying next lap invalid. So basically 2 laps for one crash and this was at the first or 2nd turn on TTT.Metalmurphy said:
Other times I've had it where it doesn't pop up saying next lap invalid at all but the timer stay red for 3 or 4 laps even if I'm not cutting or doing anything wrong. Usually just restart when that happens.

Meanwhile in Austria... Yamauchi is driving the SLS AMG GT3 at the Red Bull Ring.
Could it be his new car for endurance racing ?

Though I didn't really play GT4 all that much, I agree. If I had to choose only one I think I'd choose GT5 because the driving is otherworldly and there lots of awe-inspiring moments. But GT2 and GT4 are such massive, deep, polished and detailed games... I'm really looking forward to GT6, regardless of the platform we'll play it on.
If we're only talking about the driving though... GT5 >>>>>>>>>>>>> GT4 > GT3 > GT2? > GT1? I was a kid when I played those two so I don't remember that good

...and that, kids, was the first time I sucked a dick for crack
I wanna be showered with DLC updates the same way a porn star is showered with semen.
Give it to me, Kaz. Give it to me!

I'd pay $15 for Grindelwald. I still don't know why that track vanished like it did. It had a great layout and it was beautiful.
Me too. Even if this means simple texture upgrades for these tracks due to time reason (hell, the game is out for almost a year)...offshore said:Come on PD, just release all the GT4 tracks as DLC. Hell, I'd even pay for them. Missing my Midfield and Tahiti
But I think that at the most there will be a new patch with those "New features" promised by Kaz and, maybe, some weeks later DLC.

Rome Night was such an awesome track. That license test in GT2 with the Alfa is probably my favourite ever.
It still doesn't make any sense why all the old GT4 tracks aren't included. Laguna Seca looks like absolute total shit in GT5, so it couldn't have been a QA issue. The tracks are already too inconsistent, they should have just bit the bullet and included all of them.

Maybe I have faulty eyes, but it looks great on my end. One of the only old tracks that look bad (or at least very inconsistent) in my opinion Trial Mountain. The lake where the the Loch Ness monster is looks ugly, static and fake. And it reflects the wrong colour. Also the rock textures in the side of the mountains are pretty awful.
Also gnarly 2D monkey in the tree.
All the PS2 tracks look bad to me...although maybe that comes from going from the glory of the Ring to the PS2 upscales that's the jarring thing.
Not that it matters that much. It's just that if the PS2 tracks they included looked bad - or that is, not as good the as the "premium tracks" - why not just lump in all the rest of the GT4 tracks? Costa di Amalfi would look pretty good I'd bet.

I tried to be selective and choose only the very best tracks from the list but still I ended up with all those. My nuts would (will?) FUCKING EXPLODE the day they announce even half of those tracks for a new GT.
Wait...
offshore said:
... brofist man, bro-fucking-fist. Best license test ever, I still remember the moment I golded that bitch.
At least Seattle (dem climbs and dat speed), SSR11 (dem chicanes) and others got the PS2 treatment. But Red Rock, Grindelwald and both Rome** and Rome Night were never seen again. WHY
** Why the fuck don't we have the GT3 version of Rome which is like 398473984 times better than the GT5 one??!?????
Sigh, this reminds me that the thing I care about most in GT are the tracks, specially the imaginary ones. They are so damn good
Has anyone noticed this oddity with the Photomode? The bloom seems to disappear when taking photos.
I was driving around the Nordschleife at sunset and taking pictures when I noticed that the resulting pics seemed less colourful and less natural looking than what I saw during the replays.
- Paused replay picture
- Entering Photomode, sunrays/bloom are gone. Decreasing the exposure brings out the sunset colors in the sky (not shown), but it doesn't look at nice as the replay.
- Exiting Photomode, the effects are still gone. They reappear however once the replay is unpaused.

want to give the merc-top gear challenge another go but My save wont load.
I get past the PD logo and the terms and conditions but then I just get a black screen.
Can still quit to the XMB ok but it just wont load to the main menu. not getting a loading bar or anything.
help me gaf. If I have to delete my save data or reinstall the 10gigs + download all those patches I dont think I will even bother.

Have you tried playing offline just to see if it's the network, or the save itself?
Take a look at the Save Data section in the XMB too, often shows up as "Corrupt Data" if the save's nuked.

Wikk try going offline.... kind of makes accessing the seasonal events a bit hard though :/
