Uh, yeah, I'm a hardcore 360/Forza 3 fan, but I think I can respectfully speak for everyone here when I say this: you either "get" and enjoy sim racing, or you can kindly **** off.

Well said. (Y) I can't stand people who complain about not being able to play a sim racer. They need to learn that triggers on controllers are not the same as buttons!

Is it going to not suck like the first 4 GT games?

Judging by you PSN profile you like arcade racers like NFS, Outrun and Dirt, so my question is why are you here when you know that GT is a sim racer?.... you are simply trolling.

Do you think that the Black cars that come as DLC with the signautre edtion will later be on PSN for othere people to buy, or are they "exclusive" for

the signautre edtion?

Hooray, I can stop kicking myself about cancelling my last GT5 pre-order! :) I just preordered it for £34.84 at Argos. If you want to pre-order it there, use code "PLAY15" at checkout to get the 15% off, otherwise it'll be £40.99.

Don't argos charge for delivery?

Normally yes, but the code gives free delivery as well.

?31.99 on jackofallgames, but I believe they charge you upfront.

*cancels Argos order* Thank you! :)

I don't care if they do charge upfront. The way things are at the moment, I'd prefer if they do charge upfront, as I've got plenty of money at the moment, thanks to my birthday, and being back on JSA (plus a surprise bonus payment from EMA). :)

Can you tell me if they do? I'm the opposite way around from you with finances :p

Will do. From the looks of it, Argos charge as soon as you order as well. I just had to search through the help pages just to try and cancel the order. I have to wait for them to reply back, and they showed me the operating times, and they've just clocked off. :(

OK, I can confirm that JackofAllGames do charge you as soon as you order. I just checked my bank account, and ?31.99 came out instantly.

Bummer, here's hoping they keep the price like that till release.

Who knows, by then PD might be able to squeeze some extra out of me for the collectors edition.

I was tempted to buy the Signature Edition, but it's ridiculously expensive, and I probably wouldn't get much use out of everything in it.

Yeah signature is far too much. I may bite on collectors if I can get it for ?50-55.

Still on the verge with the signature edition, considering I'm skipping like 95% of all games released, I should spoil myself for the titles I care for.

I'm still deciding too, but buying a flat and thinking I could spend that extra ?100 elsewhere :/

GT5?s Weather Will ?Play Tricks On You? During Endurance Races

Sony?s put together a new website promoting their ?PlayStation Experience Tour? across France, and it features a noteworthy little bullet point regarding Gran Turismo 5?s heavily-rumored weather system. Via Google Translator:

?the light passes from the sunny morning after the night was black and the climate will play tricks on you during endurance.

This is important because it suggests the game?s weather will not be static, but dynamic and changing throughout the course of your race ? a significant detail which hasn?t yet been confirmed. Let?s hope for more solid weather-related info to be officially revealed at the Tokyo Game Show, starting this Thursday. Thanks to Kobhalt for digging this one up!

    • Nvidia is your issue more so than linux itself. I did used it for a while with an old 1060 3gb, but using propietary drivers was kind of messy.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
