There are 189 songs in total in Soundtrack Library of the game, including glorious selection of Classic music, but there is no "Moon Over the Castle" to be found anywhere. It will be a shame if it does not appear later (maybe after Ending Credits or something, only time will tell - since fan-editing of the intro-movie pretty strongly implied that it is edited for MOTC).

Also, this is plain cool

Cars Love Gran Turismo 5 Too!

If you thought the first Japanese TV commercial for Gran Turismo 5 - the one with the toy cars - was fun, it's more fun when the toys are swapped out for dozens of real cars.

I lost count of the number of different cars I saw in this ad, but suffice to say, it's a lot. Nowhere near as many as will be in the game, true, but for a single stretch of Japanese motorway it still an impressive tally.

Gran Turismo 5 will be out next week, which is a sentence that feels good to be typing out.

Got my pre-order in with Best Buy - managed to snag the standard edition of the game for ?29.99 delivered! :)

Same here! (Thanks, AB!) :) The 10% off code didn't work for me, but I don't care; it's still the cheapest deal! :D

I just need to ring up Blockbuster and cancel my order. Unfortunately, I'm currently in college, and I'm here until 6pm. Same story tomorrow. Hopefully, they'll let me use the reception desk phone at lunchtime. :p

I got my order in quite early but never noticed the 10% deal until after I'd placed the order. DOH :)

Nevermind.. still the best deal I've seen so not complaining!

The deal lasted longer than I expected! It looks like it came to attention at around 8am this morning, and I didn't read about it until about half 9 this morning in college. Still, I got my order in, so I'm not complaining. :p

It's gone back to ?29.99 on their website, but says it's sold out - http://www.bestbuyentertainment.co.uk/games/platforms/ps3/gran-turismo-5-gt5/10042564.html

Me and Pheee got it for ?26.99 rofl.gif

Watch this GT5 review as it unfolds:

http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=132738

Definately going to need its own thread, I forsee people going wild with pictures, so containing it to one place and not the official topic would be much better.

Does anyone in specific want to start the official photo/video thread? I would be happy to if nobody else is interested.

I want a wheel (with chair and all that) but don't have enought space or energy to fight to make space for it with my wife. :( I wanted a chair eversince gt3.

Just do what I did (or something similar) :laugh:

Can all be put away before "she" gets home :whistle:

Still working on that whole setup, will look a lot better once finished. Been a while since I actually did any work on it though. Attention span of a brick :(

After reading more of that review, I am tempted to postpone my order to see if any of the concerns change. Hmmmm..

Edit: Since my Fanatec is broke, and the budget doesn't afford a new one, I will just get a G27 instead. No postpone needed.

I couldn't be bothered upgrading to the collectors edition (currently pre-ordered the standard edition) because it was too much effort to change it (required to call them up and cancel my current pre-order) yeah I'm that lazy :p however, EB Games are giving people who ordered the standard edition of the game, the 6 stealth cars that come with the sig edition....now I'm not so bothered about being stuck with the standard edition now :p :happy:

Being honest my view on wheels is that unless you have a dedicated games room then they take up too much room to be used all the time unfortunately.

You are 100% correct. I bought my wheel and tried it on a folding table, useless. I bought a Play-seat. It folds up pretty good and doesn't take up much space. It makes a world of difference but does cost some coin.

Amazon had free shipping on it.

    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
    • You didn't like Mafia The Definite Edition? As a fan of the first when it came out, I liked that remake.
