Did anyone else order from Tesco & receive this email last week?

Dear Andrew,

Due to circumstances beyond our control there is a delay in despatching the item listed below. The new estimated despatch date is listed next to the item.

What delay? :unsure:

STUNT ARENAS?!?!?! How the hell did I miss that?! :woot: :woot: :woot:

Been known for ages bro rofl.gif

?These innovations are twinned with the option to join millions of like-minded individuals globally within the Gran Turismo community and to find a driving experience to suit, whether that is taking on the Top Gear test track, chucking cars around stunt arenas, go-karting, creating and sharing your own track or intense head-to-head races. Who, where and what to drive is completely down to the individual.?

Trailer for Qore, no mention of Stunt Arenas but at least they're talking to the US producers, hope +1 :p

I guess there is a month left, probably need to wait another 10-15 days for some more new info.

Haha, I love that ad. :)

I wish I could go back in time to being a kid and have that many toy cars!

By the way is anyone else stupid enough to be getting the Signature Edition like myself, through throwing away their own cash or someone elses?

I almost ordered it, but I got real in the end. I'll be just as happy with the regular edition. The only way I'd truly be happy with having the Signature Edition is if I actually won the SLS AMG! :p

With the nut jobs over on GTPlanet and their £10,000 wind/air/gravel and pine cone infused space capsule in-house driving chairs none of us regular joes are going to do good enough in-game to win that competition.

RC car with camera and microphone! I already have plans ...

It probably has a range of 3 metres. Stand outside womens changing rooms?

Haha, true. It's not always the case though. Sometimes, you can be the best with just a gamepad. That's how one my gaming buddies won a Nissan 350Z (he couldn't afford the insurance on it though, so he sold it, and bought himself an Alfa Romeo MiTo). Didn't work for me though, I came 37th out of 50 in that final, and ended up with a Need for Speed Mini Scalextric set. :p

Well anyway, that means I can do OMG NEOWIN UNBOXING of the GT5 Sig Edition, and maybe even make front page news alongside the unboxing of a USB stick article.

Yeah don't worry I won't be doing anything else other than whatever track/car combo it is we need to use 24/7 from release. It's all about shaving seconds, shaaaaving them.

True. I did that as well, but the annoying bit is that when I got to the event, they did it with pretty much all of the assists turned on, and I was playing with almost everything off, where I could get about 58 seconds round Brands Hatch Indy in a 350Z, when at the actual event, I ended up doing a lowly 1:02. I was faster at the local qualifier. :p

I guess this time it's GT though, probably mandatory to use professional physics and all assists off. That's what the time trial competition released a while back was.

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
