jevansio Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 is it possible to just not download it like Wez says to try it out.... I haven't got a PS3 either , was going to use GT5 as the reason for buying one, I guess Prologue isn't a big enough reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got Call of Duty which is amazing....not to mention the PS3 as a Blue-Ray & Upsaling DVD player on its own makes it a fantastic Home Theatre machine. They are amazingly quiet.....cant hear it at all when watching movies......makes the 360 look like a complete joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must admit, I really got into the COD series on other platforms, it looks mint on PS3, & the Blue-Ray is a bonus, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 COD4 on PC is a great game, I just cant get into games like that on consoles. If I could use a keyboad and mouse on the PS3 I would prob give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harps Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I couldn't resist any longer Just started the system update, then the GT update. Hopefully I'll get on tonight at some point! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprash Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I pre-ordered mine from HMV. It usually comes on day of release so hoping to have it tomorrow:) Though my ps3 isn't conected to the internet so i assume i cant download the uprade. We have a wireless box downstairs but i dont know the password for it, and Im crap at that sort of thing:d There should be the password on a sticker on the underneath off most of them..... See if its there and I'll try and help you with the rest..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockys96 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 has anyone hooked up to the online 16players yet? do we have to pay for subscription Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 has anyone hooked up to the online 16players yet? do we have to pay for subscription Yep, I have and it's pretty good. You don't have to pay. 16 car races can get a bit manic! Other cars 'ghost' for a few seconds if they hit the barrier and spin onto the track in front of you, so you don't end up with all 16 cars in a massive pile up - which would have happened in some of the races I've been in! (you just drive through the 'ghost' cars who are subject to a penalty of 4 or 5 seconds with no power when they crash into something) As Homer said, the handling is much more realistic now. I lowered one of my cars by 11mm at the rear and 14mm at the front and totally screwed the handling! The weight shifted too far to the front and the rear was trying to come round every time I lifted off the throttle into a corner. (even slightly feathering the trottle was a problem) This online stuff is a lot of fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lockys96 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 was that wireless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harps Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 No, plugged in. I think there's problems with the downloading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soop Dogg Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 how do you lower it? there are no mods on there? Once you complete the A, B and C parts, when you go to a new race, immediately before actually racing, theres a option in the Quick Menu at the bottom of the screen with a spanner on it - this allows you to perform a 'quick tune'.

Thorin Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I went out and bought it on Friday too, I've finished the first two "parts" (those overtake all cars in one lap ones are tough aren't they! only managed bronze on the first and silver on the second) and had one brief go online. I like the penalties now if you try to cut corners or ram someone off, makes things a bit fairer! I remember in GT4 it was much easier speeding into a tight corner and using the AI car as the brake If you add other people as friends then can you see when they're playing on-line and join their game too?
