Oh, what I hate in Forza is that sometimes one car is the best in several groups! I remember in Forza 2, the Honda CRX dominated most of the lower group times.

That happened with a Nissan in FM3 as well, until T10 patched it :)

By the way AB, thanks for fixing that video. It was worth watching because that chick is freakin...wub.gifwub.gifjump.gif

After watching the Qore footage of this game... I'm sort of put off by how the cars seem to sort of just float on the track.... It is like they are not really touching the ground as much as you would think. Maybe it will be done better in the final product, but what I saw just looked very odd.

where is everyone pre-ordering from? might get one from shopto for ?35. cant see anyone beating that price.

was also talking to an employee in gamestop and he said that there will only be a smallish amount of games being sent to the shops. any truth in this or did he just want my ?2 deposit for a pre-order

I pre-ordered mine at JackofAllGames for ?31.99, which is the cheapest one in the UK, the last time I looked. The only catch is they charge you straight after you order, but it suits me in my situation. :p

Mines pre-ordered at Amazon for the Collectors edition, couldn't see anyone else with it.

I'm not going to lie, this post motivated me to watch the video :p .

LMAO at the car rolling over. I didn't even know that they had that feature in the game.

I noticed that too on that last video with the car rolling over.At the start of the race where the blue car takes the lead it looks like it is floating and has no contact with the street at all.

Reminded me of some 3DO games :laugh:

The more I see this game, the less interested I am by it. Am I the only one? I enjoyed GT3, disliked GT4. I just hope all the stuff they have kept adding to the game doesn't effect the overall quality for the fans who have been waiting patiently for this! There is such a thing as "too much."

I do feel the same way but not because of your reason, more because I don't have the patience for these kind of games any longer and all my interest in the Playstation 3 is gone, my interest in the platform has hit an all-time low, so the games just whizz past me as well.

Cancelled my pre-order the other day.

Yes, give us less for our money :p

I too am aliitle worried about this game. The past 2 pre-orders I've had for games turned out to be "not what I thought". They where way over hyped....

..I'm keeping my pre-ordered cause I simply love the GT series...just hope I am not disappointed :pinch:

It's been in development for 6 years, I think they've had enough time to add everything without "affecting quality"

I swear those rain effects just look amazing, and If you can't be happy with this, you're just overcritical.

25 days to go... for the US at-least.

Well after next week i'm staying off the GT5 specific threads (Especially GTPlanet), cause i fear somebody will get their early copy and I don't want to ruin the feeling of seeing the game fist hand by me looking at youtube clips of the Intro Movie, menus, races etc.

That doesn't mean anything, there can and will be some quality issues. Been plenty of other games with long development and still end up having issues. However, we shall see but the wait has been long enough already.

Fair enough, don't know why such pessimism though, it's not like PD have a track record of shipping poor quality products, nor does the content in GT5 look half assed in anyway at all.

They took the extra time from last year to get it to where it is now, if anything that's promising.

Don't think you can really "spoil" a racing sim :p

Well GT5 prologue for me at-least was really good and i didn't see any glitches while racing, now before you bring bring up some BS YouTube intentional glitch clip note what i said (while racing) not going somewhere trying to force my car out of a barrier, online was okay sometimes although i don't prefer online racing due to some people driving like Asian stereotypes.:D

Prologue came out in 2007, aside from the actual graphical engine I think it's safe to say it's just a little bit outdated by now.

And tbh that's all it was, a graphical showcase and a beta test for online play. A purchase I regretted quite a bit, once the eyecandy was drooled over for a while, the substance of a normal GT was missed badly.

Think that goes to show why I've never ever bought any of the prologue titles before.

Prologue was crap because it failed at the most important thing in racing, the handling.

Academy Demo was a bit better but not a large enough sample of cars to test out the difference in handling.

Agreed 100%. But it appears they kept working on it and improving the physics. If they are at least as good as Academy, I will be fine with that.

From what people at these expos are saying, it's much much better.

    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
    • The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off by Ivan Jenic The Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system is currently $239.99 on Amazon for the 2-pack, down from $329.99. That's 27% off and $90 saved for a solid Wi-Fi solution that covers your entire home (purchase link down below). The 2-pack covers up to 4,000 square feet (372 square meters) and supports 100+ connected devices, which handles the vast majority of home setups without breaking a sweat. Wi-Fi 6E brings access to the 6 GHz band for lower latency across the network, and the 2.5 Gb Ethernet port supports gigabit+ internet plans if your ISP offers them. eero's TrueMesh technology handles traffic routing automatically, so you're not manually managing which devices connect to which node. You set up the entire thing through the eero app, and the entire process takes a few minutes. The system also receives automatic security updates in the background, so once you set it up, you don't have to worry about compatibility issues. If you're covering a larger home or want more nodes, the 3-pack is $329.99 and the 4-pack is $479.98, both at similar discount levels. It's worth mentioning that a newer model exists, which is likely the reason for the discount, but the Pro 6E is still perfectly capable hardware for most homes.
