They do have drastic changes – the GT5 time trial is quite different than GT5P (again, probably only noticeable with a steering wheel).

Oh ya, for drifting, you should try N1’s. I was using N3’s for a long time but once I got into N1’s they were much better IMO.

Also, for those that care, the following was just confirmed today for GT5:

- night/day racing on all tracks
- dynamic weather
- over 1000 vehicles, ALL with physical and mechanical damage and interior views (170 premium cars will have interior damage modeling)
- Nascar vehicles can be driven on all tracks (not just Nascar tracks)
- Indy (IRL) cars and tracks
- head tracking with the PS Eye
- High-definition video uploads directly to YouTube

GT5 is coming. Less than 3 months until it ships in Japan, and hopefully soon after here.

This will hands down be the best (console) racer ever.

Time to start saving for a G25/G27 and a PS3.

I’ve put gt5p to good use; I always return to it for some good times.

I bought a G25 but wasn’t that impressed… I didn’t like the force feedback, it really threw me off. I returned it to FS but I remember the prices were dropping like a rock in Dec/Jan 08/09. IIRC, there’s an online store that was selling them for $160 new where FS was charging $320.

Wasn’t there a rumour that the game publisher would release a wheel to complement GT5?

They already have. It’s an updated Logitech Driving force pro called Logitech Driving force GT, or DF-GT. It just has a GT button in the middle that lights up, and similar feedback to the G25, no clutch, or H-shifter. Goes for about $120-$150. It’s a pretty decent wheel. beats using the controller any day of the week.

The +/- and red knob also let you tune the car in race. Things like Torque distribution on AWD cars, brake balance, etc.

^ yup – and they also released a G27, though not an “official” wheel for GT.

Haha ya there are some pretty awesome people out there. I was under 500 too last time I played which was a couple weeks ago…don’t have that much motivation because the GT Academy wasn’t extended to us Canadians. Who cares about attending a race – I want TO race.

On that note, this Sony commercial is pretty awesome: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9V2YgZ7jjY](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9V2YgZ7jjY)

If you guys want some real online drift action just get live for speed and a g25 lol…It all comes down to how you tune you’re car and drift, not changing gay physics options and stuff.
