Most places have it at ?25. But if you get it online, or have Staff discount at work then you can get it for less.

Now I know Norway is a expensive place but you went to the wrong store :pen :p manager probably didnt know it was a prologue and charged for a full game..

How much are full games up there?

Is that the price in all stores?

I'm absolutly loving GT5P. The last update added drift challange and thats what I love to do! Not to mention the Aston Martin DB9 was added, I love that car. I'm much better at drifiting it then any Farrari, and cars like the GT-R are AWD witch is a no thanks for drifting.

after playinng a while... this is my final assumption.

No sense of speed when going fast... 120 miles is fast for any car even for mini... you should get a nice sense..

other than that everything is very good. car models are the best. tracks are nice...

this is my first ever gran turismo game. as my ps3 is my only ps ever. i was an xbox man. however i can not see why many people exaggurate GT that much. For me driving need for speed is better. but graphics and everything else better in gran turismo

ROFL, sorry but i thought the whole point of a console is to skip the part "installing" why you need to install ps3 games but on xbox 360 you don't?

u hav to do it on GT5 because of online play...readin frm the blu ray aint quite as fast as runnin frm the HDD...so everyone has to hav it on there hdd :) was the same wit Warhawk!

ok ok its class C :(

but still 120 miles should feel fast in any car.

is there a class S by the way? did not see it in prologue

I doubt it just because of online play - the most used files will get copied from the disc since the read speeds are faster on the harddrive.......whether its online or not :p

Finished installing but the update failed at ~3%

Yeah, exact same thing happened to me. I thought it was my internet connection. I just did it again and it was sweet. But as for the game, I wasn't expecting much, I didn't get much. Pretty basic, and I was not impressed by the visuals...So many jaggies everywhere. It does NOT look like the screenshots or videos. I feel slightly ripped off.

The constant 60fps in GT:P helps you feel like you are going fast.

Constant 60fps? You must be talking about another game. I'd say more like 70% of the time.

Yeah, the game could use at least 2x AA to smooth things up. Screenshots and videos are always supersampled and are way beyond normal gameplay graphics. But hey, that's marketing.

Is this game full price? If it is, then there's no way I'm getting it..

I did have high hopes for it though

Alright, maybe not constant but not far off. As for AA, it does use it. Play the game at native resolution (1080p) and the jaggies are almost invisible.

Cant believe how much people moan over little things. Jaggies dont stop the game from running and you enjoying it. :laugh:

Is online play very jitterish for you people too?

My movement is fine, but the others are twitching a bit

Lag is causing it. I get a few like that. Once PD release the patch/upgrade to allow private rooms, this issue should almost disappear.

it is pretty much just for online cause offline doesnt really matter...but if some people r buyin it off PSN...they r using the HDD sooo they cant hav people wit the blu ray playin online wit them cause the loading time will be different..so everyones installin to a HDD so that the loading time is all equal and the HDD players dnt hav to wait extra time for the Blu Ray players to load...but of course it also helps for loadin times wit single player :)

I love how they sell you a demo for the full price of a game

Who is, and what game?

If you are meaning GT:Prologue, they are not selling it at the price of a full game. I would suggest getting some facts before posting something like that again in the future.

The only things that are bugging me is the difficulty level on one of the beginner events, passing 15 cars is more difficult then it sounds, even if you are slip-streaming behind every car you can. My other gripe isn't the developers fault but racing online is like every man for himself, the amount of time I've been spun out from behind or shoved into a wall is pathetic paticulary when most of the time there is more then enough room for them to pass me.

RAGE GAMERS!

Or just a bunch of 12 year olds :p

Sadly in the world of online, you'll always find those that would rather play dirty/exploit/annoy than just getting on with things in a more adult like manner.

That is why damage that affects your car performance would be good online - Ok your car may be totalled as well, but the people hitting into you on purpose would also badly damaged/total their car as well as get a time penalty.

Votekick may also be a good feature :p

As well as private racing rooms :/ - But ive heard that is coming.

Highly doubt thats the reason... reading off the disk may result in a slightly longer loading time before the race but would not justify the mandatory install.
