It's arrived!!! It's arrived!!!!

Goodbye family!

I suspect they have added some kind of patch to counter the pirated version that is floating about.

Don't blame them at all to be honest.

Mine may arrive in the next hour but the missus wants to drag me off shopping. Boy, am I going to be Mr Grumpy today!

133mb is a pretty heavy patch just to counteract piracy, tbh.

Also, the game is gonna take an hour to install so just let her know she has an hour in which to get all essential purchases completed then you are leaving with or without her

Have had a brief play this morning and I can confirm the cars feel very good to drive Well that's the most important bit out the way!

For people getting their knickers in a twist, you don't have to install it and yes you guessed it, you don't have to patch it either!

I was on this until about 3am last night with my bro taking it in turns, was very impressed so far, cars feel great and you can immediately tell the difference in the types of cars we used, the snow/rain effects look great and the car models are fantastic. Certainly not a disappointment so far!

I thought the same. I know online modes are being "activated" by way of a patch but that shouldn't be more than a few kbs, right?

Can anyone who's got the game confirm whether or not the clutch works with a G25?

 

[dunker]

apparently it does after you press triangle at the start of the race?

Please add me on PSN guys.
I only have one person on my friend list and will be on GT5 most of the day tomorrow. I haven't used my PS3 much lately but I think this game will have me hooked for a while! I have a headset coming tomorrow as well.
PSN ID:- v1deogames

Got to sleep in a bit as I work nights but will accept any requests in the morning.

That's not PSN generic and it's not a sticky

Just had a text on my Phone "your copy of GT5 on PS3 is ready for collection on wed 24th. Selected stores are open at midnight" I'll be picking this up at lunchtime.
