Gran Turismo 5 Spec II

Don't know if this has been posted, but here are Engadget's impressions of the G27. Reading it makes me think I should get the G25 instead

 

Here's the conclusion

 

Logitech's G27 is not two steps forward and one step back; it's more like a stumble in each direction, leaving it standing more or less where it started. It's a wheel that is improved, but for each tasty upgrade comes a painful omission, downgrade, or flaw. For serious virtual racers it's all a little tragic; the company was obviously listening and addressed many G25 owners' concerns, but in the process inspired plenty of new complaints. At the end it's hard to recommend the G27 over the G25, especially for anyone thinking of moving from one to the other. If you must have the latest and flashiest, the G27 with its blinkenlights is your wheel.

 

For everyone else, the slightly adjustable pedals and the smoother internals are the only solid advancements here, and with the G25 now available at most places for under $200, a full $100 cheaper than the new one, there's no question of which to buy -- at least until supplies run out. Take that cash saved and put it toward plywood and 2 x 4's to build yourself a race simulation cockpit of epic proportions. Or you could just invest it; by the time Gran Turismo 5 finally ships you'll probably have made enough interest to buy a PS3 Slim to play it on.

Simultaneous worldwide release for GT5

 

In his latest interview with Italian gaming site MultiPlayer.it, Kazunori Yamauchi doesn’t shy away from nearly confirming a “simultaneous world release” for Gran Turismo 5. A worldwide release has been widely rumored after our own Amar212 first hinted at the fact way back in April, and it is looking more and more certain with each passing day. Yamauchi was also asked about Gran Turismo 5 feature list, which GTPlanet managed to grab before it was quickly pulled from Polyphony Digital’s website. Although he comes short of explaining why it was posted, he confirms the information is true. Yamauchi goes on to discuss how the new damage feature will affect a car’s handling characteristics, and goes on to say there will be “real NASCAR races.” Finally, Yamauchi retierates that the game will run at in full 1080p resolution at 60 frames-per-second.

 

Although there is no official English transcript for the interview, we can thank our own RoadRunner99 for offering the following translation of the most important questions:

 

MultiPlayer: GT5 Release?

KY: ”The game is still under development but its release is not too far, it will be after the PSP GT release and, very probably, it will be a simultaneous world release”

 

MultiPlayer:What about the game features that were published on the official japanese site, 1000 cars, 80

tracks and YouTube download?

KY: ”We would like to wait to publish them, but what you read on the site is true.”

 

MultiPlayer: Is there something new in the single player mode

KY: ”If you look at the PSP version, you’ll see that the game is very different from the previous Gran Turismo versions. The 5th episode will have many similar features to the PSP version”

 

MultiPlayer: How the damages will influence the gameplay?

KY: ”The damages are not only visible, they will affect the driving style.

It depends on the player, some players will like it, others will not”

 

MultiPlayer: Will we have Nascar and WRC championships in the game or just the cars?

KY: ”There will be real Nascar races

in the game. Nascar had necessary to be included

in the game. Regarding WRC championship we have been trying to add it to series since long ago. Now we got it.”

 

At the end KY confirmed 1080p and 60 fps.

How well does these simulate real driving techniques? For eg. can you do a corner with a heel-toe downshift using a G25?

Games have a standard price & that is 60$ for console & 40$ for PC [unless its a CE or unless they are Activision]

The price in your country depends on the exchange rates & the distributor.

I am assuming it's distributed by Sony right? So it should be 2499, similar to Infamous or Killzone 2.
