  1. I think this is a different driving game but did you guys see this article. Pretty interesting, they took the world champion in iRacing and put him behind the wheel of a real race car on the track.

    May be you will love this as well: GT Academy

     

    Sony Computer Entertainment America and Polyphony Digital Inc., in collaboration with Nissan North America, announced today the opportunity of a lifetime for gaming and racing enthusiasts - GT Academy. Starting December 20th, fans can compete in Gran Turismo® 5 exclusively on the PlayStation®3 (PS3™) for a chance to make dreams of becoming a race driver with a professional team a reality.

    And we should have a set of this in our living room. :biggrin:

  2. Good luck with that... I got too frustrated with the Samba vans to keep trying, and my experience with the Elise stage is a short-lived adventure in understeer followed by snap oversteer, especially with a wheel that gives you 2.5 turns lock-to-lock

     

    I did it. :top:

     

    My VW was on 2nd lap attacking the Hammerhead turn, a couple of seconds before taking the lead.

    I won the Top Gear's Samba van event and unlocked Top Gear Test Track.

     

    My best power lap on the test track (from stand still at the starting line) on stock MINI S '05, 1:35.428. :tongue:

  3. How does the G27 work with the 7 gear cars?

     

    7 gear cars have to use paddle shift (sequencial gearbox type/ no clutch needed). Clutch pedal works on all 4, 5, 6 speed gear box. :biggrin:

     

    I'm working on unlocking Top Gear test track right now. Have to win 1st place on VW Van race (2 laps on Top Gear race track). :tongue:

  4. This is so HAWT!!! Normally I run right out and buy a copy of any GT game as soon as it comes out. UNFORTUNATELY this year I am forced to wait for the Wife/Santa to get it for me for Christmas. Nice pics!!

     

    My santa came early this year. Santa brought me the game plus G27. :biggrin:

  5. Educate me please, I am guessing this is some sort of driving game. It sounds fun and the pics are cool

    Gran Turismo 5 is one the most, if not the most anticipated driving games ever, make exclusively to play on Playstation 3 console. It is a car racing game, but I would call it a driving simulator game btw.

    The images above were captureed by the game photomode. You can select your own location, manually adjust camera focal length, camera angle, shutter speed, f stop, exposure compesation and some of there cool filter.

     

    Play with steering wheel set like Logitech G25 or G27, and you will love it. It is 'almost" like driving real car on real track. :top:

  6. i must possess this, hows the modding compared to forza? i miss the old gt style modding.

     

    The mod is simple and good enough, imo. In most case, you can upgrade every components:

    Engine: mod level 1, 2, 3 and ECU fine tuning

    Suspension: Fix, partial adjustable and fully adjustable

    Turbo: lever low, mid and hi rpm range, and supercharger

    Intakes, Exhausts, Tires, brakes, and weight reductions, etc.

     

    So far, I'm addicted. What a fun driving Nurburgring Nordschleife in a MINI.

  7. GT5 is incredible, it was so much fun and so realistic. :top:

     

    I was amazed on GT5 photomode as well. Just like you using real camera. :biggrin:

     

    Here are some images of the car collections in my GT5 garage, captured using GT5's Photomode.

  8. You can set the poll by using image number that you'd assigned to each images. Then you attach pictures on a post with the assigned number on each images. Members can look at the all the pictures, select their favorite(s) and vote.

    And you can edit the first post on this thread and add the polls to it.

     

    My 2 cents. :biggrin:
