***The Official Gran Turismo 5 Thread***

Special Stage route 7 + R33 with 660BHP = Win.

I raced my cousin who used the jeff gordan nascar. I out accelerated him and still beat him.
 
FINALLY got gold on the GT All Stars event on Expert. This is seriously the most frustrating thing ever. :o

I swear it's completely fixed as well. In the 6 times I attempted it, they all stay far back from you, but as soon as one of them gets even a metre in front of you, that's it, they suddenly get a huge boost and fly half the track away from you. :confused:

The most frustrating was losing the 5th and last race and then the whole event by 5 points overall. Surprised my screen isn't damaged. :o

170k prize money, kerching!
 
It really doesn't matter what first car you have. I bought the cheapest I could find, and didn't even use it anyway, not once. I just used the car you get from the licenses and worked my way up quickly. Then bought a 300SL. :p
 
Looking at the course list for the All Stars event, wouldn't it have been better to pick a car with a little better turning ability?

Tried other cars but they just won't keep up with the race cars, making it even harder. It's needed tbh, unless you can afford a few million for a similar car to theirs.

The Veyron wasn't that difficult to control really, it was just the fact that one little mistake such as touching the grass, meant the guy behind had you instantly.
 
I'm uh, actually using the zonda in arcade mode to teach me proper cornering, not being of driving age and all until monday :P

Coming from a background where you played gt2 when you were 6-7 loved it, then played mario kart and arcade racers for the rest of your life, its tough; finding using the analogue stick to control acceleration works A LOT better than the buttons.

The buttons are analogue too.
 
RP, not sure why but you're not showing on the list of friends I can send a car to, have accepted your request and quit/reloaded GT5, but nada :(

Wonder how the poor sound guy is at PD who forgot to make tunnel blasting sound different, prety sure kaz will be laying some smackdown there!!

Tunnel blasting is not that bad. It should just be a lot louder/deeper. I can notice the difference, but it's not as much as I thought it would be.

And also, MAKE THE BLOW OFF VALVE SOUND LOUDER PLEASE. Seriously, even with the BGM turned off in race mode, it still sounds like a little whistle. Oh and turbo spool also.
