Idea for a Gran Turismo 5 commercial

[blaknoize]

I like it. But it wont be made, cuz marketing sucks ass. I'll buy the game regardless. And... they need to include "some" damage and online play FINALLY. So I can race yall asses!!

IMO simulators like GT5 are a tool for those that already have track experience to learn tracks, braking points, turn in points, etc. Not so much a replacement/starter for someone who has zero experience, the physical and mental experience is just too different. When I play driving games I use purely visual/sound cues on what my car is doing, whereas when I'm driving I use all, especially the buttometer. Meaning even if you master GT5, you still need to start from step 1 with everyone else on your first track day. As for safety, if anything I tihnk it'll inflate people's confidence and achieve teh opposite. Plus I'd be pissed if I paid good money for a race school at RA and they make me spend a day on a PS3.

ok well said.....but i never wanted the 3d to take over driving feel in real life... that should never happen... but i would like it to be possible to atleast electronically show the characteristics of different types of cars the average guy will never drive.... An f1 car vs gt500 z vs super 2000 bmw... see where im going?

For sure. Same here. Have you tried the Ferrari Challenge game at DB? It's supposed to be very good, but when I tried it I think it was partially broken.

thats so crazy i was pllayin for like 3 hours yesturady, i used like 120 points from my $20

anyway bout that game

i like
1. The fact that its a real gated shifter (and you can miss shift) (much better vs logiTECH G25)
2. you really can heel toe down shift (feels like its necassary for lack of abs)
3. real race tracks (love sugo)
4. Ferrari f355 one of the best cars ever

dislike
1. it well just isnt there on the handling brakeing and shifting all together
2. depth perception.... it looks like turn is far away but it isnt.
3. brake feel....no is not that poor in a f355
4. graphics from 1999 ( )
5. you can still shift without clutch
6. brake feel (yes its that bad)

ive got more but its a game frtom 1999 by sega and for its time not bad at all. If GT people can add the full screen experience with 1080p+ hd audio+ that feel thats almost perfect then itd be a great game.
