Yes I do know what GT Academy is, but I don't think new people get it..

to them they just see demo.. so in that sense I wish they would have just done a serious full demo instead and put this in it, so for people not into the Academy thing they could just skip it.

@ Perkel

I don't think there will be a demo out later next year, I think they will just do this.. -but lets hope I'm wrong..-but I don't think they will because the full game comes out end of March -that's really a short time. View

That's not fair, I wasn't saying High Quality in comparing it to anything I was just saying high Quality in the sense of doing some of the things they talked about trying to do from the HD demo..

I have GT5p, of course I have not played GT5 (full game) but I am judging that the game will be on the level of GT5p which looks absolutely amazing..especially on an HDTV

Also High Quality in the sense of what they where able to do as far as the updates from Spec 1 up to Spec III which improved everything from handling to steering feel - this is by no means a low budget racing game.

They have put some serious work into this game, that's all I meant by high Quality - it has a real high Quality feel like the company has really taken their time to try and make something really good.

I'm not being a GT fan by saying this, that's clear if you just play the game...IMO (if your being honest)

Don't assume My comments are in comparison to some other game, I am just talking about what they where trying to do compared to what they did with GT4. (stepping up to HD without losing what they had in GT4, but yet improve on it - no easy task, getting your game to play at 60fps in HD and not lose any of the feel of the older game) View

As someone who bought GT5p and loved it, (and already pre-ordered GT5) I was hoping they would do a huge update for those fans..(people who bought GT5p)

the people who supported the game big time by buying Prologue..

I would have loved if they just gave us the nurburing track -and maybe two others, with a few more cars like the Corvette ZRI and Ferrari 458 and Lamborghini LP560-4

This would have kept me more then happy as I wait for GT5 the full game..

But this demo is seriously Lite and kind of silly as it won't really reach the right market.. (new fans who might want to pick up GT5p and then GT5 the full game in March) -this is just once again a huge miss opportunity to really get the fans excited for the full game.

I don't know who is running these things at Sony or Poly Digital but for the love of god, fire that idiot.

Because this is an Epic Fail on getting people excited about the game. it's just too lite and weak. it's almost 2010 you got to step your game up - these days fans need a lot more to get them excited.

Some may disagree but as a super fan, I just wanted to say I was really disappointed at this - this is not how this should have been done... IMO. because the game is such high quality that to do a weak demo like this does the game a serious injustice.

I want people to understand why this game is so epic and why it's so amazing, your not going to get that from this demo. If anything it might make you feel the game will be boring.

It didn't have to be for just people who bought GT5p but it did have to be much bigger then this.. This just seems really weak for a demo. View

MrJackOfAllTrades I was just about to say this is sparta!!! LoL

but yeah - is it just me or does the run seem slower now.. I felt like I was running faster, or the whole game was faster before the update..? View

-but why am I not surprised at this.. way to go sprint don't even put up a fight just hand over everyone's data..

Way to protect your customers, thank god I don't have sprint.

I think it's going too far when the government needs to know who I called and where I've been all day... WTF.. View

I was thinking about the same thing... LOL

-that commercial is just too funny View

GT5 is indeed racing perfection.

I think the reason some people don't get it is because they never really dug in deep and stay with it awhile, it's the type of game you have to really play over and over to understand it's perfection.

Me and my brothers have always had this challenge where we try to out do each others time on a track.. doing so forces you to get better and better at your racing skills, even if it's just by a few seconds..

The in-car view is amazing, I usually use the view where you see just the dials when trying to set my best time, but I love the in-car view as well, it's done really well.

This game will indeed set the bar on racing games.. and on an HDTV nothing and I mean nothing comes close to how amazing it looks...

They really have done an amazing job with the graphics and game-play.. if you were playing GT5p then you know how far they have come from Spec 1 to Spec III which was a huge game-play improvement... so I cant wait for the full game... View

They have different scores for PC and Xbox 360... which makes no sense?

-but that is where the problem lies.. the 360 version is given a 9.0 while the PC one has an 8.5

(that's why people think they changed the score) View

have no idea what N4G.com is...

I'm always surprised by that, because I guess I just thought the site was so huge that everyone knew about it...

and Surprise -Surprise a lot of gamers don't read any reviews, it's really the hardcore gamer..

-but the reviews are important because they tend to influence the word of mouth sales - which are big in gaming - word of mouth really helps sell a game. View

I don't get it, because when I go to the site it says 8.5 but this guy said they gave it a 9.0 -So... ???

-(what's really going on here?)

here is a screen snap - http://img35.imageshack.us/...

So is it suppose to be 9.. now that the check cleared.. or is it back 8.5 so they can try to keep it real... LOL View

Can't wait. View

is that what you are saying...

I wanted to try this... is it working or not?

Can anyone confirm View

It really looks amazing... what a job they have done from part 1 to bad company 2...

This game is going to be too much fun.. Can't wait.

Side Note -is it me or does this guy have the worst camera ever... Jesus, if your going to record, just keep the camera still.. LoL View

Seriously, they are doing everything you could possible want, and it's going to be Awesome... wow Can't wait...

that looks so good, look at the guys face at the beginning when they are on the elevator, just amazing... (and it really has this feeling of being real) -like how they move when walking.. done really well.

This game is going to be Awesome, They have really increased the levels to just huge open space... Looks amazing

another thing is the sound.. just wow, it's really done well, feels so real... man this Game is going to really set the bar high for other game companies..

Can't wait for this game.. should be a lot of fun. Going to get it on my PS3, but might also get the 360 version because I have so many friends that I know who will be on 360 -thank god this is one game you will not have to worry about how it will look on pS3.

Infinity Ward has always done an amazing job in keeping the game exactly the same on both systems.. Like COD4 which I have for both systems and it is the same... -so that's going to be really cool.

Can't wait

-but the funny thing is why is it only now they are getting around to fixing this... I mean "come on" this was happening all the time in the beta... View

Now I have both systems let me just start by saying that, and I have used both systems, avatars...

and I must say Microsoft did get it right with the avatars, they are really easy to use and you can make something that actually looks like you.

You can do this on the PS3 too, but only in home and for some reason it's easier and feels cool when you do it on your 360.. -plus add the way they are using them in games.

Dirt 2 for example, that's actually pretty cool use of the avatar.

and while their is no world to walk around in, you don't need it because you really just want your friends to see your avatar when they log-on and see what you are doing.

So in that sense it's pretty cool I would give Microsoft that one. Pretty cool design and use of it.

AND to all the people who are going to disagree, that's fine - I still love my PS3... -LOL

This game is Awesome, I'm really enjoying it.. that's all that matters... are you enjoying it... And I'm loving it.

The Multi-player is awesome... the single player is Awesome, I'm actual going to play it again once I beat it because I know I missed some treasures and all the perks that unlock once you beat it on Crushing.

This has really been some serious gaming fun, I didn't really have any expectations, but having multi-player has really been Amazing (once you get into it, it's awesome) having as much fun as I was having playing COD4 - so that says a lot. (it's just been a lot of fun)

-hat's off to you Naughty Dog, the Game has been Awesome...

Someone has to pay for the piracy, so guess what? It's going to be you, our loyal customers... gee' thanks Activision.. View

I guess that's all you would really need to know for it to be official because when even MSNBC can see that the game is a 10 what more do you really need.
