Can someone explain the used car dealership to me? If there is a certain car I want and its not listed do I have to wait for it or what? Does not make a lot of sense to me as to why I can just go buy any car I want like Forza, no matter if its premium or not.

Yep, that seems to be the case. If the car you want isn't a premium car, you have to wait for it to turn up in the used dealership.

really? driving at 200kms an hour and you car is going to stay super smooth at all times?

because when me and my buddies were ripping his 2010 7 series beemer at 220 the thing was shaking like hell but was still smooth (i know it sounds contradictory, but that car has AMAZING handling for a beast that big).

The car shakes yes but your head doesnt, your head isnt attached to the car chassis.

suppose to be aluminum****

i say it like a-lu-min-num

you guys are all like a-lu-min-nium, sounds hilarious.

Lolwut?

You are lecturing a country that speaks English on the spelling of English words?

you guys DO NOT speak english, i've talked to "english" people, can't understand a god damn thing you guys are saying.

We do, but much like your country we have regional accents, not everyone talks like "what what tally ho! pass the tea and scones" like every stereotypical British person in every American/Canadian TV show. You cant take the English language, butcher it with Americanisms, and then tell us we are saying things wrong.

Although whenever I hear Cheryl Cole and her annoying Geordie accent, or when I just hear any chav in general, I sometimes wish we did all talk like that stereotype. :p

I was reading some complaints about the way the car upgrading process is handled and the UI being lackluster compared to Forza, confirm/deny?

Forza's UI Design and Upgrading Processes is far better than GT5. However I am getting used to it but I do prefer the Forza UI better.

Is it only Americans that call them "Bimmers"? I've always heard them being called "Beemers" over here.

Beemers for us, Bimmers for them it would seem.

spelling it that way never made sense to me... you pronounce it bee-mer not bim-mer

:rofl: In writing it's "Bimmer"

Beemer makes more sense... LOL

It's spelled Bimmer worldwide. However, it's pronounced Beemer. If you are talking BMW motorcycles (original BMWs, those were referred to as Beemer). I subscribe to Bimmer Magazine ;)

Some interesting stuff here folks:

Kazunori Yamauchi has been fielding questions from fans on Twitter over the past few hours. The tweets are in Japanese, but with a little help from Google and medhi_san, we can get a pretty good idea of what he?s talking about. Here?s the highlights:

  • Flexible camera angles and ?dynamic and wide-area lighting needs? are to blame for the sometimes blocky shadows. Yamauchi admits they are a problem and wants to improve them.
  • Yamauchi appears to consider the possibility of removing the in-game HUD (heads-up-display features) at some point in the future.
  • To unlock the Red Bull X1, you?ll need to complete the ?Sebastian Vettel Challenge?, which appears at Level 30.
  • Online ?lounge? functionality and other features will be added ?one by one?.
  • Polyphony Digital continues to work on fully supporting the Logitech G25 and G27, though Yamauchi admits he would like a ?new steering device soon??
  • Mechanical damage options will be implemented in a new update for GT5 coming ?early December?.
  • As you may know, many players noticed that GT5?s face-tracking functionality only worked in Arcade mode. According to Yamauchi, it?s not available in GT mode due to memory issues with the PS3.
  • In-game rewards (such as the monetary prize in GT5 Prologue) for your performance in online events is something Polyphony Digital is considering, and may be implemented in a future update.
  • Gran Turismo 5?s official, 2-disc sound-track will be released soon.
  • Yamauchi wanted to implement a ?free roam? gameplay mode in GT5, where players could drive around, respecting speed limits and obeying traffic laws, and even exit the car to walk around and explore the environment on foot.

As always, it is refreshing and exciting to see Yamauchi?s interactions with fans via Twitter. Let?s hope the medium continues to be a valuable open line into Polyphony Digital as GT5 to evolves!

canada uses the same english as britian does, and i have friends from the "old country" but ot's the slang that gets me. I love how in lock stock and in other guy Ritchie movies they actually sub title it.

    • Spyro: A Realm Beyond revealed by Toys for Bob, the first new entry after almost 20 years by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a surprise reveal from Activision that wasn't related to Call of Duty. The Microsoft-owned publisher revealed a brand-new Spyro game, confirming the return of the series that last had a brand-new entry appear nearly 20 years ago. Watch the new Spyro: A Realm Beyond trailer above, which shows off a new look for the iconic dragon. While most of the trailer is a rendered cinematic, the very end does feature a snippet of gameplay captured on PC. The development team working on this project is Toys for Bob. This is the same studio that delivered the Spyro Reignited Trilogy remasters that brought back the original games for fans. "We are huge Spyro fans ourselves and we are so excited that 'the adventure continues'," says Toys For Bob Studio Head, Paul Yan. "I know the wait has been excruciating but we’re so thrilled to finally come out of stealth and confirm that a new Spyro game is indeed what we’ve been up to these past few years." As is evident from the trailer, Spyro has grown since his previous adventures, and that means he is better at flying too. Players will be able to fly around with freedom for the first time in the series this time, and not just inside mini-levels. "In Spyro: A Realm Beyond, Spyro will experience the freedom of true dragon flight," adds Yan. "He’s small, but mighty, so we had to do a lot of different experiments to explore how he could be both nimble and still be very physical when actively pushing his way through the air." The studio promises the return of whimsical worlds to explore, with plenty of treasure and activities to find. There is a new antagonist coming in to threaten this peaceful world too. Moreover, Tom Kenny is returning to voice Spyro. Spyro: A Realm Beyond is releasing sometime in Spring 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • They couldn't have done a better job, this is beautiful!
    • Oh, of course not. The real "victims" are the people who snipe kids in the head, have killed more journalist than all the worlds wars combined, do double tap strikes on medical personnel, claim history started on October 7th, have a $700 million dollar annual Hasbara budget and pay influencers $7k a post to spout exactly this kind of propaganda. How dare you question the most moral army in the world. Victimhood belongs to these genocidal freaks alone. Anyone who denies that is literally Hitler. If you're going to support a terrorist state, the least you could do is come up with better talking points.
    • Gears of War: E-Day brings 12-player co-op, smoother traversal mechanics, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Right as the Xbox Games Showcase came to an end today, The Gears of War developer The Coalition took over to show off its next project: E-Day. This prequel project was announced back in 2024, but now we have a lot more details about its campaign, new gameplay mechanics, and even a release date. The studio says this is the first time it has managed to get the time to build the entire game in a new engine, as it had worked non-stop on new titles for years while porting classic code and assets. With Unreal Engine 5 now powering Gears of War: E-Day, The Coalition says it started completely anew, with all assets, animations, environments, and others being built from scratch. The campaign will take place across three days in the city of Kalona. The story will follow the events through the eyes of Bravo Squad. This is made up of the returning classic duo Marcus and Dom, as well as the new characters Mags Carter and Lucas Reyes. Watch the trailer below to see Marcus in action without his iconic armor and gear, just as the Locust invasion kicks off. The story will draw on classic Gears novels like Aspho Fields as well, with the studio even collaborating with author Karen Traviss. "That continuity is what makes the destruction land," says the studio. "In E-Day, you watch a living city torn apart—homes still lit, meals half-finished—while people abandon their cars and run for cover. Small details—a child’s toy, an uneaten dinner—make the loss real as everyday places collapse under the Locust assault." The movement system is getting a big overhaul here. Players will be able to slide while running, jump across gaps, climb head-height covers, and even crawl on the ground to avoid fire from enemies. As for the returning horde mode, The Coalition teased a new 12-player PvE mode. This will involve three squads of Gears going up against the incoming Locusts in larger city maps than usual. The studio says that it is going to reimagine the classic formula just as co-op games are going through a resurgence. Multiplayer was touched on today too, where Versus is coming back touting four versus four Gears PVP action set across Kalona maps. More details about multiplayer will be revealed later. Open beta weekends are kicking off this August for fans wanting to jump in early too. Gears of War: E-Day is releasing on Xbox Series X|S and PC on October 6 with pre-orders available now. It will also be a part of Xbox Game Pass on day one. Microsoft has confirmed this as an Xbox platform exclusive, as there are no plans to bring it to PlayStation or Switch.
