Yeah the pods will have the DF GT official wheel
Are you familiar with past GT5 demos?

Recent ones are:

Nurgurgring 24Hr Event inc F1 track
Lemans 24Hr
E3 2010 Rome Rally and Top Gear tracks

Confirm if you can if a 3DTV is attached.
This will likley be a Sony HX800 model with the infared unit for the glasses being external and likely below the TV.

I know a few guys would be really interested if you can find out what demo is running etc or a pre release photo.


Here is the recent Move and GT5 demo at Comic Con 2010
This might be what some of you guys get to see.

I can confirm that they are using the official wheel which is quite a nice peice of kit and that the pods arnt running on 3dtv but the stand alone normal controller units are, not sure which demo it is I'l try and let you know once I've had a play

I'm not going to risk any videos or pictures of the software as theyve not told me which ones are safe to show and which ones the developers will throw a fit over, sorry guys :)

Dunno I'm waiting in the queue at the fountain atm. I've probably just walked past some OcUK members without knowing!

Got back not long ago.

GT5 was decent only picks were that the 3D was a little underwhelming (the **** pit view of the Enzo I was in was good it was just the tracks) and the rally course I went on was really bland.

Motorstorm 3 was epic the 3D took some getting used to though.

Move on the whole was surprisingly good imo. Heavy Rain Move was amazing; the control scheme was more fun than the normal pads.

Move table tennis and the small games were similar to the Wii tbh, I wasn't overly impressed and experienced similar sorts of reponse issues you get with the Wii.

The Move game FIGHT however was awesome! This actually felt really responsive, when you punched it felt 1:1 mapped and I felt completely in control of the fighter. It was using 2 of the main Move controllers though which is gonna be expensive.

Best game though was definitely Killzone 3 for me! The 3D was unbelievable, it is more of 2 but with some added features, aswell as a touch more auto-aim and the jetpacks rule!

There were two PSN games one kinda reminded me of Crackdown but imo it was pretty dull. There was a 3D top-down zombie shooter with some amazing graphics it was an awesome game but I cant remember what it was called.

You probably walked past me Nanoman :p

Killzone 3 was so damn epic - all the old KZ2 memories came flooding back :D

Motorstorm I was really impressed by, and the destructible environments were pretty spectacular - I've not been a big fan of past MS games, but I might pick this one up when it comes out!

Looks like I was one of several people that missed the LBP2 stand though, which is a bit gutting.

Move - bit of a let down if I'm honest. It felt really unresponsive and the calibration was kinda annoying... I'm hoping it was just because they were early demos etc.

Not much free stuff unfortunately :( some badges and postcards, that's it!
