Default Gran Turismo 5!!!!!!!

Not sure what happened to the GT4 thread. It must have been deleted right?

Anyways, check this out- http://media.ps3.ign.com/media/857/857126/vids_1.html
I don't have a PS3 yet but I now have motivation to get one. I also see more than 6 cars on the track. SWEET!!!

That's what I figured too. The headlights really look similar to the current 350Z. That car in the game is sooooooo awesome!

That game is going to be out of this world. Although I don't own GT4, I've played it and it's such a great, realistic game. I couldn't imagine the game getting much better after 4, but I have no problem with 5 coming out.

Yes, it will rule our lives before too long

GT3 was awesome, and then 4 just blew my mind.

Isnt PS3 the system that you have to have a HDTV to be able to see the true graphics of the games? Back when PS2 came out i had got it just for the GT4 game but with PS3 being so expensive and in this expensive hobby at the same time, it may be awhile.

I had the PS2 connected via component video to an HDTV, and GT4 was able to output into 1080i widescreen. I would assume since the PS3 has a blu-ray drive it would be capable of at least that, with any title.

Does anybody know what happened to the official GT4 thread a while back? I wanted to put some stuff on there.

I'm going to dust off my ps2 and start playing again. I could always make another thread, but I don't know why the other was deleted.

That's the 2009 Nissan GT-R in the video. Check out http://www.nissanusa.com, for the future from Nissan.

I love my Sentra but I wish it was a Titan.

C'mon mate don't be like that!For the endurance races i did stints with the erm co-pilot but yes bring on GT5.
Anyone got any favourite tracks with a best time?
Invariably i do my times in GT mode/free-run/no nitro/qualy tires but just give me some times on your fav track,my current best on the Nurburgring is 5:08 but if i can keep the er bar steward on the road i'll be sub 5 min.
Please someone give me a track/car/time to compete with.

Here are my results for challenge 1. Make sure you are ready to write down your fastest lap and overall time. It doesn't leave it on the screen very long. I know I can do better. I havn't played this game since last summer. You do get kind of burned out after so long.

Overall Time- 18.54.321
Fastest Lap- none
