The graphics look good, Im impressed with the 2011 illustration above although I'm not overally won over by the new look of the impreza.

Without wanting to start a new subject as there is already plenty discussed on Snet; the Hawkeye is about as good as it gets for the impreza imho the 2011 looks hidious at the rear/backdoors.

I cant help think it looks like on the one of those MGZT`s

It looks nothing like a ZT

I do think it looks a bit like a Mk2 ZS though, vented front wings, boxy back end and similar headlamps.

Me and it was all very underwhelming. Only had a very quick go and there are settings to change so maybe it can be improved.

I like the handling, feels quite natrual, not too arcadey or focussed on oversteer. liking it so far.

Some features are locked,which will be available after you are reach level

Gran Turismo 5 has a progressive damage system. This means that as you level up and become more experienced each level of damage becomes unlocked. A report indicates that at level 20 in the game, near full damage becomes unlocked with moderate mechanical issues and at level 40 full damage becomes unlocked with significant mechanical issues.
At full damage, mechanical failures play a critical role in the vehicles drivability and aerodynamics. At this level car hoods, trunks, and even doors will be hanging by a hinge as pieces of the car fall off.
And here is link

LOL All I managed was 20 minutes in the arcade, haven't even started the licenses, just as I seem to get a spare hour, I end up on baby bottle duty

Maybe I can revert to steering with my knees .

Is it just me, or is anyone else thinking there doesn't appear to be as many races in the GT5 as previous GT's?

I'm already halfway through Professional and knowing i only have 9 races in Extreme and then a few Specials left to do....what else is there?

yep, im finding its lacking content, few races and the restrictions make it even harder to get a decent race. Not many premium cars to be bought!

Although its a very good game im finding it hard to get a decent race although i think arcade may be the answer but if that is the answer why bother doing the game mode.

So all in all good but:

The sound is absolute crap and you have no settings for your own car volume so most of the time i can only hear the cars around me and not my own so i have had plenty of missed gears

serious lack of content for all the hype and 5 year wait

What is the point in playing B-Spec, you have to start at the bottom again and i would imagine have to sit and watch 3 hours of boring racing until you could at least get some better races, even then i should imagine its just as boring

With the lack of races you are going to struggle to account any decent money to buy some of the cars 850000 for a rally car, 2million for some speacials and the F1 car 20million.... thats just ridiculous


Anyone have a cheat for 100 million credits?????????????????

I think it's because their 'Standard Cars' only the 'Premium Cars' have in car views.
