Can we have a serious talk about GT5?

Now they are talking about a late spring/early summer release. What else do they really need to do to this fucking game?

Now I don't have a PS3, don't plan on getting one, and I find this fucking ridiculous. I'm sorry, but I feel that they've kept the Gran Turismo fans waiting too long and it's probably going to end up a disappointment.

Now, I have played the Forza 3 demo and hopefully I'm getting it for christmas, but the original Forza to me, was better than GT4.

Polyphony needs to suck it.

GT5 =

I've completely forgotten about it. It's like the Chinese Democracy of video games... all the GT games have been that way.

i have no idea when itll be out, but ill be first in line to buy it when it does. til then, forza 3 is plenty good enough to give me my racing fix.

oh and a demo featuring the 370z is set to be released on the playstation network in 2 days, talon.

oh and i think ill be getting one of these

GT5 will be out in time for Forza 4, so that should be interesting..... give Turn10 time to fix the hurried Forza 3 and make a worthy competitor instead of a place holder.

The problem is that Forza 2 seemed like a hurried placeholder too. They should have given Forza 3 another few months.

Regardless of Forza 3 being a placeholder I really feel like GT5 is going to b a drawn out disappointment.

At least Forza 2 let you shift with the right paddle.

i'm sure gt5 will be cool and all, but there is some inherent bullshit in those tourismo games -- the bad AI and bogus physics, specifically.

Oh yea, I am going to buy the shit out of that game when it comes out.

I d/l'ed the demo but haven't played it yet.

same, talon. i think gt5 will be something special, it would be some major bs if they took all this time and turned out a stinker. i hope they have more sense than that.

And the black flag bullshit. If they keep that shit in the real game, that could be one of the biggest fuck-ups in any video game ever. Fucking black flag cock blocking piece of shit.

I just want all driving games to let me use the right joystick to shift the car. That's cool...

that was the BS where even if the other car crashed into you, you were the one penalized? that was infuriating.

agghhhh my xbox isnt turning on at all! the light on the power adapter is red!

great, i unplugged the power supply, let it cool off in front of a fan for a while, plugged it back in, the light turned orange, then plugged it into the xbox, and then it turned red. which i assume means the problem is with the console and not the power supply itself. and my warranty expired last september.


bullshit, MS makes a hastily built system that only lasts a couple years and then forces people to spend more buying a new one. i paid 400 for mine back in 2006, it should last alot longer than that. im calling them tomorrow and giving them an earful if they want to try to charge me for repairs.

dont feel bad my brothers PS3 has similar issues, it gets so hot that the sauter around the processor melts, the only way to fix it, non permanently, is to completely take it apart and use a heat gun to melt it back into place

he did it once, it worked for about a month..hasn't done it again..buncha B.S.

sony wants 150$ to "fix" it

Yeah ps3 has it's issues, my buddys just quit reading discs, they said that he would have to pay to fix it, it was like $280 or some shit, he said fuck it and bought a new one.

fucking ridiculous. they might as well stick a gun in your face and rob you. "oh we're gonna make a shitty product and then charge you out the ass when it breaks". FUCK


i have a ps3 and have had no issues with it. then again i hardly ever use it...

its working again, thank god. i took the power supply box out to a gamestop to try to have a guy help me and i guess riding around in the car cooled it off or something, i'm not sure. at least if it acts up again ill know its the power box that needs replacing and not the console itself.

I know, it's highway robbery. And most people, not wanting to deal with MS and the wait, just buy another one... which then just adds more money into MS's pockets. Doesn't make a dick bit of sense. I wouldn't be surprised if they have engineers that make sure they'll fail after a year just to get people to buy a second or third system. Seems the best way for me to make sure my 360 lasts is to not use it. Seems to be working thus far. :jay:

If I know I am going to be playing my PS3 for a long time, or watching a Blu-Ray, I put a fan near it. If anything ever happened to my PS3 I would kill someone.

oh and about GT5, if i see a car hit another car and bounce off ridiculously, i'll never touch it. 5 versions, we should be able to calculate bump physics by now. fuck you sony.

There's some bullshit AI in FM3 too..... but there is brilliance as well. I love shoving my way past a car and in the next corner he gives me a little 'love tap'.

Did you let it ride up front? I find that boosts its self esteem enough to get it performing again.

Probably let it stick it's cord out the window.

yeah, it rode up front like a big boy

You know, only power supplys over the age of 12 should be seated in the front seat of a vehicle with airbags.

I don't think anything MS makes would last even last 12 years...

just the box it came in

the pain. the pain lasts 12 years.

You could end the pain.....

all i need to do is find a good home for my cat and wait until my mother becomes eligible for disability and medicare.

then i'm out, baby!

Out like the fat kid in dodgeball!

Ahem:

gran turismo:

looks great

bad physics, bad AI, 5 sec penalties for gayness

fucking repressed nips and their bullshit.

BUTT U C4N RASE A PLAAAAAN33333!!!!11!!1!!!!ONE!!1!!
