Default Gran Turismo 5 comes out tomorrow!

I can't wait to see what the new game will feature. I just wish they would just include Porsche, as the last cool Porsche game was Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed. I really wish EA Games would make a porsche unleashed 2 though. Either way, I had this game pre-ordered several months ago. Last week, I decided to upgrade to the collectors edition.
-Everyone post up what you think of the game if you get it!

I will never understand why PD and Sony can't reach an agreement with Porsche AG to include their cars. Obviously EA (need for speed) and Micro$oft (Forza) have been able to get licensing. Why can't the biggest baddest digital racing franchise get it done?

Yeah, RUF is included but thats just a loophole.

Either way, I'm still excited and picking up my copy after work today.

just picked up my copy. The collectors edition is nicer than I thought. I am now waiting for it to fully install onto my PS3.

Default First Impression

I would have to say that I am a little disappointed. I really wanted it to be awesome like NFS Shift. I don't think it surpasses NFS shift. It took me a long time to set the controls the way I like it and turn off the race music.

I got it last night and i'm torn. When its good, its AMAZING, other times its meh and just like gt4. That said im happy with it so far and know i will be playing the hell out of it for a long time. The menus are whack though.

Install took 30min, i did upgrade the HD though. Its faster than the stock drive

Passing the 30 minute mark now on a stock hard drive. ****...this is slow as molasses. I would have a beer, but that will make getting my licenses take even longer! UUUUUUGGGGGGGGHHHH I have a stealth McLaren F1 downloaded waiting on me to drive the doors off it.

yeah, I have an XBox, too. F3's an awesome game, though...beautiful and fun to play. I shouldn't, but have not yet ruled out, buying a PS3.
