Should be (Y)

It's all the small touches in games I love, really add a feeling of being immersed. It's overlooked in so many games, Read Dead Redemption was the last game I played I felt it was done well.

It's like yeah a bump mapped hub cap is completely over the top, but in 18MP photomode I'm going to spend a decent bit of time just taking pictures of engine shots and other random crap for my own pleasure.

All the videos of GT5 from Gamescom are embarrassing though, people just think you can hold the throttle down and drive laugh.gifSo many spin outs and epic failing. All the videos of the Zonda from above basically consist of noobs spinning out on every corner.

Yeah that makes me mad every time i see those videos, no throttle control and people who intentionally crash into walls to see if they can damage the beautiful cars. :cry: In other news Siena's cityhall is asking Sony to remove the karting track PIAZZA DEL CAMPO from the game, and is threatening to start legal actions.

They claim that a kart race on the famous piazza where the PALIO DI SIENA is held is disrespectful, also another problem is that in the demo, the flags of the Siena's Contradas (the teams that race) are shown without previous approval.

looks like the game has had a setback and we might not get this kart track

Are you sure the BMW isn't a real shot? Seriously, the fenders look too smooth...if it is real, this is all essentially because of the amazing lighting system the PD guys and gals have created. When you zoom in on the Ford you can clearly tell it's a game but zoom out and my god it looks so real. Still analyzing the BMW.

I'm sure it's the game as i have the link to more 18 MP photos.

I can understand the flags, but a public locale...copyrighted? I don't think this will be an issue but here's hoping PD simply changes the flags out.

that's the same thing most of us at GTP was thinking, that's just like saying you can't put the Lincoln Memorial in a racing game. :blink:

That place should STFU, before that GT5 karting video no one had heard of it, publicity > these weak sauce complaints.

I know man they are getting free publicity in the game and they're complaining over some damn flags in a clean racing game, it's not like its in a gory shooting game and remember this is the exact location that they filmed part of the opening to The Quantum Of Solace.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I mean, GT5 is essentially the pinnacle of racing games and they are complaining about this?

EDIT: just realized I've been on Neowin for over 5 years, woot!

GT5 has the best presentation i have ever seen in any game this year.

Yeah the whole thing has a touch of class to it, but everything PD does has that from trailers to audio used to in-game menus, etc, etc.

I still absolutely love this trailer

Should be getting somewhat of a taste of how the sounds are in the newest public build

Gtplanet:

Hey guys, alba and Denur here live from Gamescom. We have captured lots of videos and sounds at the GT5 booth all day today and with some editing it could give us a clearer picture about the whole sound business within GT5.

Unfortunately, in this demo there was no way to turn down the music so all the recordings we got has music in it but Im going to try to edit it out the best I can.

We have pretty much all the cars left out from footage on the net already... Like the Castrol Supra and the M5 and we even have karts sounds so yeah hopefully things turns out alright.

alba out, Denur in:

I would like to apologize beforehand for my louzy driving. Hate driving without sound.

But got drive a lap with headphones (GTR) and I was pleased, the deep rumble is there.

We saw a nice thing with the AI when a kid was driving. He was doing a Shummy (park the car in a wall so no one can pass) and one of the AI cars eventually decided to back up, to make room to pass the car. Very nice.

Photo mode was in this build too, but without a controller, we couldn?t do much. Got some footage though.

So hello from alba and Denur live from Gamescom and we will try to get you the content from the show as soon as possible. Cheers!

Should probably be up tomorrow as I edit them and put them up on the GTPlanet youtube account. Until then, have a nice day!

Killa, may I ask what skin you are using for OSX, and how you applied it? w00t.gif

there is a lot of steps involved if you don't know the basics.

I've got my fingers crossed that we really will see this finally in November. It's looking more and more polished with each video I watch. November can not come soon enough.

it's not going to get delayed again with all the media PD are releasing. :laugh:

    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance by David Uzondu Recently, the UK's Home Office announced a sweeping set of proposals to make Britain the "first country in the world" where children cannot share or view nude photos on their smart devices, an initiative that authorities claim will protect children from online predators and combat pornography. In response, Signal believes that while the government must keep children "safe" and "protected," it should do so through social services and education, not by "surveillance, funding cuts, and cover-ups." The company called the plan "dystopian" and warned that it violates everyone's fundamental right to privacy, arguing that scanning on the presumption of nudity will only strengthen the market dominance and data control of giant corporations like Apple and Google. The statement continues by accusing the government of hiding its true intentions under the guise of child safety. Signal argues that the Home Office is building an invisible surveillance infrastructure that remains ripe for exploitation by future administrations and authoritarian regimes. According to the company, this aggressive approach completely ignores the actual needs of young people, such as properly funded schools and mental health services. Tech companies like Apple and Google have a three-month window to implement these mandatory device-level filters across the United Kingdom. If these tech firms refuse to comply with the mandate, the government will pass emergency legislation to force them to comply, threatening massive fines and even going after the CEOs of these companies with criminal charges. The technology will work by blocking explicit images directly on the operating system of all smartphones and tablets by default. This system monitors the device camera and third-party apps to intercept nudity before anyone can upload or send the image. Adults can still view explicit content, but only after completing a strict age verification check to unlock their devices. Several bodies like the NSPCC and Barnardo's praised the Home Office's decision, arguing that device-level intervention stops the cycle of grooming before it starts. The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) also supported the policy, claiming that tech companies can implement on-device checks "without threatening privacy or collecting any data."

    • Incredible deal gets you free NVMe 512GB SSD with AMD AM5 B850 motherboard for only $150

      Incredible deal gets you free NVMe 512GB SSD with AMD AM5 B850 motherboard for only $150 by Sayan Sen Earlier this week we covered the story of an interesting PC case wherein you can build two full-size computers inside it as in it can house and run an AMD and an Intel system simultaneously. Speaking of building PCs, these are hard times to make one for sure as prices are often very high except during flash sales or discounts. If you are in the market for a 1080p gaming PC then Nvidia's 8GB RTX 5060 Ti is currently on sale for just $330 and you get the latest James Bond game too, for free. Speaking of which, right now there is another incredible sale going on as we can get a free 512 GB NVMe SSD from TeamGroup in the form of the G50 alongside the purchase of an AMD B850 socket AM5 motherboard for only $150 (purchase link under the specs table down below). Getting an AM5 motherboard now in 2026 will be a wise investment for sure, especially since AMD confirmed its commitment to support the socket till at least 2029. The MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI is a micro-ATX motherboard that is compatible with AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors. Since it is AM5, the motherboard works with DDR5 memory and includes MSI’s Memory Boost technology, along with EXPO and XMP support. Connectivity features include built-in Wi-Fi 7 paired with a 5G LAN solution. The board offers a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot with MSI’s EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II thermal solution, that is said to help maintain SSD performance by providing ample cooling against overheating. The technical specifications of the MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI motherboard are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor Micro-ATX (mATX), 243.84 × 243.84 mm Chipset AMD B850 Socket AM5 Supported Processors AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series Desktop Processors Memory Slots 4 × DDR5 UDIMM Max Memory 256 GB Memory Speed DDR5 8200–5600 MT/s (OC), DDR5 5600–4800 MT/s (JEDEC) Display Outputs 1 × HDMI 2.1 (up to 4K 60Hz) 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (up to 4K 60Hz) PCIe Slots 1 × PCIe 5.0 x16 (CPU) 3 × PCIe 3.0 x1 (Chipset) Audio Codec Realtek ALC897 Audio Channels 7.1-Channel High Definition Audio M.2 Slots 3 × M.2 slots M.2_1: PCIe 5.0 x4 (CPU) M.2_2: PCIe 4.0 x4 (CPU) M.2_3: PCIe 4.0 x2 (Chipset) M.2 Device Sizes M.2_1: 2280/2260 M.2_2: 2280/2260 M.2_3: 2280 SATA Ports 4 × SATA 6Gb/s RAID Support SATA: RAID 0, 1, 10 NVMe: RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 Rear USB Ports 4 × USB 2.0 2 × USB 5Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-C Front USB Headers 4 × USB 2.0 4 × USB 5Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-C LAN Realtek 8126VB 5Gb Ethernet Wireless Networking Wi-Fi 7 (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be) Tri-band 2.4GHz / 5GHz / 6GHz MU-MIMO, MLO, 4KQAM Up to 2.9Gbps Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Internal Power Connectors 1 × 24-pin ATX Power 1 × CPU Power 1 × PCIe Power (8-pin) Cooling Headers 1 × CPU Fan 1 × Combo Fan/Pump 3 × System Fan RGB Headers 3 × Addressable RGB Gen2 (JARGB_V2) 1 × RGB LED (JRGB) Additional Internal Headers 2 × Front Panel (JFP) 1 × Chassis Intrusion (JCI) 1 × Front Audio (JAUD) 1 × COM Port (JCOM) 1 × JDASH Tuning Controller 1 × TPM 2.0 Header The free TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe SSD is a PCIe Gen4 and as such it promises to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, helping accelerate game loading, file transfers, and everyday computing tasks. The SSD features an InnoGrit controller and SLC caching technology to support consistent performance. An ultra-thin, patented graphene heatsink is included to aid in heat dissipation. The NAND flash is based on TLC which means it has plenty of endurance up its sleeve. The random performance may not be as amazing as other drives with DRAM though. Still it should be very good since it can access system memory via HMB to use it as its DRAM cache. The technical specifications of the TeamGroup 512GB G50 NVMe SSD are given in the table below: Specification Value Model / Part Number TM8FFE512G0C129 Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen4x4 with NVMe Sequential Read Speed Up to 5,000 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 2,500 MB/s Endurance (TBW) 325 TBW DRAM Cache No Cache Technology SLC Cache Controller InnoGrit Controller Solution Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Storage Temperature -40°C to 85°C Weight 7 g Dimensions 80.0 × 22.0 × 3.7 mm Vibration Resistance 80 Hz ~ 2,000 Hz / 20G Shock Resistance 1,500G / 0.5 ms MTBF 3,000,000 hours Get it at the link below: MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI AM5 AMD motherboard + Team Group T-FORCE G50 TM8FFE512G0C129 512GB SSD (free gift): $149.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) This Newegg deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
