this is my setup , http://www.gameracer.co.uk/detail.aspx?ID=118 works great on pc or ps3 stuffs


will run to tescos at midnight in camarthen for my copy i think
Thats pretty much my setup. I can't stand the PS3 controller so whenever i buy games its for the xbox but as GT5 is PS3 i've decided to get the Logitech wheel and Openwheeler seat, was going to go for the Playseat but Openwheeler one looked on par and £100 cheaper

Nope, uk release was alway's the 24th.... I order all my games through Game as they offer a top service and you always get the game a day early I'm not bothered in shopping around for the best deal to save £1.50, i'd rather the game on time or early

A deal doesnt bother to much if its soemthing you really really want, but Hotukdeals generally offer some very good offers that arnt just cheaper, but offer a better services etc.

I.e:
Last year I subscribed to the Great Magazine via Quidco for a full year of FHM with two free PS3 games . Quidco gave me £6.00 back for my order, the magazines for the year was £24.00 (I know there ****e) but it was the games I wanted. I played both games and flogged them on for £30.00

So I made £12.00, played two great games for free and I still get the shi_e magazines lol.


Edited: Had a quick look on Hotukdeals, and here is another offer for Assassins Creed if anyone is interested simular to the example above: http://www.hotukdeals.com/tag/6334/fhm

Mine has arrived too and it's just installing, there's an update that you have to install before the game but it gives my controllers some time to charge up again It's been far too long since I used the PS3 as a console

Same here, I think the servers are overloaded or not ready yet but I started re-installing before I realised it was happening to other users

Pull out your ethernet cable or switch off wireless.

That's what i've read to solve the issue.

think when i bought i paid 90quid for the wheel and pedals from game, and i drove to the guy that makes the seat and collected in person. he knocked the vat of and gave me a discount think i paid 230 quid cash. (this was a little over a year ago mind)

Sooooooooooooooooo!

Handling feels good

still dodgy bumping, but i suppose if you are driving properly this should'nt be too much of a problem

Can't find the damage on or off setting

Don't know where these 1000 cars are unless they slowly appear the more you progress

If its anything like the other GT's then you wil need to work yourself through the game/licenses in order to unlock cars and win kudos to purchase cars.

That says it all.... it won't blow my socks off and has been way over-hyped then?
