I golded the DC challenge but my time is 2.1 seconds away from the

But since driving that car gives me headaches, I'm fine with gold.

Even when locking the exposure, you can't have that nice bloom back unfortunately.
Looks like I'll be able to get a massive amount of money from all the new seasonal events when I'll hook my PS3 in my new place. Nice.
BTW, I'm surprised nobody merged the B-Spec driver and Jeff Gordon memes now that we can get his outfit ! :lol
A Mercedes seasonal, a Mercedes-themed car dealership, a Mercedes on the box, Mercedes giving away an SLS-AMG, Mercedes setting up a real/reality race......at this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if a Merc is on the cover of all future GT boxes :lol
Polyphony have found themselves a great partner.

And yet they still failed to model the Merc W196
It's similar to what PD done with Nissan.offshore said:
GT-R on the box of Prologue
Done a special reveal for the GT-R in game
Designed the UI for the real GT-R
Used the GT-R UI for Prologue and GT5
It's cool to see them expanding and working with other big manufacturers. It's even more pleasing to see they are comfortable working with big European manufacturers such as Mercedes, Red Bull Racing and Ferrari.

Nissan also runs their GT Academy.
Kaz has said that building relationships with manufacturers is very important. Apparently some manufacturers have tried to pay to get certain cars into the series, but they reject those offers. I guess they feel that doing something like that would harm relationships with other manufacturers.

They need to the release the HSV-010 before anything else. We already know that they were working on it. It has to be finished by now.

He confirmed the LF-A and HSV-010 in the same interview last year, but he pointed out that there was a possibility that the HSV wouldn't be in the game. They've probably finished quite a few cars by now. I guess it's just a matter of figuring out what to release as DLC (if they do that) and what to hold back for GT6.
Well, I'm really not expecting DLC cars or tracks. GT4 tracks I can see being released for 5, but the given it takes so long to create the premium cars and tracks, it makes no sense to me to make them available for 5 when you could include them exclusively in GT6, thus making GT6 more enticing.

I could see them releasing one new premium track for GT5. That would be it since it takes them so long to create those track. Still, Spa done to the level of the Ring would be more than enough.
Lol, yeah I imagine one lap takes about 90 minutes. Would make for an interesting endurance race.spats said:Why did they leave out the Mercedes-Benz Daimler patent motor carriage? I was half expecting a premium model of that.

Servers are currently down for maintenance and that made me wonder - what are they really doing during maintenance?
Support for new things? Playing minecraft?

I would kill for HSV.

I'm gonna guess that he's at least been there. We've seen that suitcase with the Spa logo on it and that was apparently the suitcase that they carry around to each track. Bathurst is the only track that he's specifically said that he's never visited. That's because he's never been to Australia.

this, nascar 2011 and joe danger allow you to youtube upload or save video to the xmb.
ripping video export completely from the game was stupid.
The EU blog posted a write-up of the Mercedes Benz event :

yes, it's the same disc as the original release according to somebody on gt planet.
Where I live, I barely get 2mb.F#A#Oo said:
Currently, 5 PS3's have died on me, and so every time I got a PS3 sent back, I had to do all the updates. No word of a lie, it take me 2 and a half hours just to update GT5. Multiply that by 5 - that being every PS3 I've had to do an update on - that's over 12 hours I've spent just updating GT5.
When Sony send me my GT5 disc back out of the PS3 that died on me last week, I'm going to have to update all over again.
I think there would have been a few people who would have bought the platinum version of GT5 if it had come loaded with 1.10. But not just those people who don't have access to the net, but people like me who are on fucking dogslow internet where updating games is a fucking chore.

I'm sorry but gaming has become intertwined with internet now. In a few years we may not even have that many single player experiences...if you have slow internet that isn't the developers problem its your own issue. Blaming them because you have inadequate internet is stupid.
Secondly patches are good...its support and we should be thankful some games receive no support after release.

I think the problem here is that the retail game is considered an unfinished product.
Also if your on your 5th PS3...you have to start questioning WTF are you doing...because its for sure your own fault. I'm still on my original BC unit...
Keep it where its well ventilated is a must...dusting it will help...
The amount of peoples PS3's I've seen locked up in a closed and not well ventilated furniture units is ridiculous...not to mention they dust once in a while...

So, is anyone expecting Kaz to appear on stage during Sony's TGS conference to announce Spec II? We know something is going to be happening this month and next, but will it be that big?

Better temper your expectations or you will go mad.
You've obviously not experienced the 60GB refurb pool. I hope for your sake your launch model doesn't break, as you'll be in for hell. And for reference, GT5 killed my first PS3 as the day after the mammoth install, the Blu-Ray drive died.F#A#Oo said:
No, otherwise they'd have timed it so that the platinum disc would carry a spec II.SolidSnakex said:
Nine months later and still all I want is time/weather options for offline and unlocked and unrestricted paint chip usage. That's it. How hard can it be?
If there is a spec II which I personally doubt, simply can't see it being free. This is all business and have no doubt in my mind that if spec II released for £15 and included a few more tracks and cars, at least 10% of current GT5 owners would bite. Good stuff if it keeps Sony happy because there is no need for another GT game on PS3, while many issues are design choices the real fuck ups are due to tech limitations that one hopes will be sorted on the PS4. Only spent a few hours myself on GT5 but content wise there is more than enough to justify the price tag, people are absolutely kidding themselves if they think that if there is a spec II it'll be free (thankfully not many have said that as of late.)
Also in another thread solid snakex posted that PD did not get any help from WW studios, how fucking stupid are they? Hope Kaz is not full of shit and actually asks for help from other studios for future games.
