Gran Turismo 5

Logitech G25 or G27. There is no substitute (in NZ)

The Fanatec Porsche stuff is probably better. It's available in NZ via an importer on TradeMe. The pedals, at least, are miles better because the brake pedal uses a load cell, which acts and feels much more like a real brake pedal.

Looking at wheel and pedal combo’s but I would rather spend the money on my real car.

Just in time for Christmas would be all good for me, I haven’t played my PS3 since last Christmas anyway, a solid week should have the foundations in place.

If you're looking for a cheap wheel just so you have some sense of control, look for a secondhand Logitech Driving Force Pro. A lot of online sim racers still use them, and they've got the usual 900 deg force feedback etc. I think I picked up mine for under $90?

Im sorry but that is a crap list of cars, that grates my testicals. Deep breath. Mother f**king f**kers, what has taken so long if that’s the sh*t list of cars available, its mostly the same sh*t cars as GT4.

20 different Mitsubishi FTO’s and no Peugeot 205GTI, E30 M3, Sierra Cosworth and the list goes on and on. FFS.

Am glad to see 08 Renaultsport Megane on there, thinking it will be the R26.R.

Makes you wonder why the E30 M3 was left out, particularly with the 2.5 190E's in the game. Maybe it was a move by BMW...

Was it Gt2 that didnt allow you to change wheels on the bimmers?

Still, probably the best list of cars in any car game ever ;)

Pretty disappointed with the list of BMWs. It's not much different to the GT4 BMW list.

They've got a ton of nice alfas. And the Maserati GT is in!

There's wayyyyyy too many variations of crap Japanese cars. How many versions of the civic/skyline do we need???

you might see they could bring out some online updates with more cars at a later time you can only dream =D

get your per-orders in stock is low =D we are at -24 at work.

Did anyone else play GTA prologue?

I want to see more of the thing were each team gets so many points to upgrade there car for that race, Meant you could get the car 100% to your liking before each race. set it up for wined tracks or fast smooth tracks etc etc

I have to agree with you there- just the right amount of grunt when it was tuned, could put far more powerful cars to shame around the nurburgring as it was so easy to drive

Im just annoyed with how many decent cars are standard models and not premium models.

Oh well dont need cockpits for all the cars i guess.

Its pretty obvious there is going to be alot of DLC with GT5.

So, did anybody else get immensely disappointed when they saw the track list?

No apricot hill, midfield, grindelwald, Twin ring motegi etc. There better be good DLC.

Just in case someone wants a CHEAP copy of GT5, or any game/dvd for that matter, use this site here: dvd.co.uk. But, make sure you put the item through checkout, as it takes off their local taxes and adds shipping. I can get GT5 shipped for NZD$68. Their shipping times are pretty tidy too from what I've heard.

You dont have to download anything

It a 10GB install on your PS3 but after about 6GB of installing you can play the game and it just continues to install in the background.

I dont doubt there will be a small patch on launch day or something.

Oh and ill just leave this here......
