Actually even in GT5 the engine sound particularly for the GT-Rs is pretty acurate. I'm just happy to hear (so far anyway) that I'm not hearing the tranny whine over the engine. IMO that's one of the major reasons so many cars sound the same in GT5, that damn high pitch tranny whine. I haven't noticed it in any of the GT6 vids so far.
This is one of the major things I was wondering about to justify the price. In the trailers the weapons never changed. Now I'm just hoping for armor that visually changes on the characters. That would put this game above and beyond what this genre usually offers, so would justify the slightly high price, especially the extra $10 for the PS3 version....which is the version I would prefer. But to keep it affordable, I may have to settle for the Vita version.
Just for clarification for you, so you actually KNOW the real story, instead of having to make up excuses for MS (though to be fair, even the media was making bs excuses for MS afterwards too, so you may just be repeating something you read). It wasn't just going down regionally and intermitently due to some stability issue or something, like you're making it sound. It was being TAKEN down by MS themselves because alot accounts were getting hacked in turn because of bungie.net getting...
I've yet to hear a decent reasoning as to why people are so adamantly against "online passes". I'm a firm believe that if you put in effort to make and distribute a product, you should get paid for it. It's called capitalism......I know alot of people are against it these days, but......you know?.......history?.......
If you buy a game new online passes don't affect you. Want to save some money? Wait for a price drop, you still get the online pass wh...
It's nice that it actually looks like AUTUMN on the Autumn Ring again.
Graphics wise, obviously more advanced AA is in play. It's an old builkd, right? So I don't want to make any judgements. But just based off of all the gameplay vids that came out of that event, I think when it comes to looking "realistic", it took a slight, almost un-noticable step back.....but all the polish has taken multiple steps forward. It'll more than likely look a even lit...
Nothing wrong with getting Drive Club. It's going to be a great game. But it's not really a replacement for GT6. Gameplay/physics wise, Drive Club is "arcade", not sim. That's from Evolution's mouth, it's sorta going to be Motorstorm on pavement with amazing social multi-player, not sim style racing, it's also touring racing, not circuit racing. Drive Club really isn't comparable to GT in that way.
There are no other console sim racers fo...
I don't know that I ever looked at GT as the ultimate in graphics. It's just always had good-very good graphics, but it's the driving/control/feel perfection along with tons of content ON TOP of the very good graphics that made GT the Masterpiece of a series it's always been.
Gameplay and physics wise, I see only 1 upcoming game that's even scratching at GT's heels and that's Project Cars (Forza 5 being a launch game won't have physics any bett...
HAHA!! WOW!! Reboot realistic racing?
Please, I'd rather leave non-sense like having arcade physics and reversing time in a racing game being passed off as "realistic" to Turn10.
You can't "REBOOT" Gran Turismo. All you can do is add content, and inch further closer to real life driving.
Why did you say "Sony's online pass"?
Trying to get people to hate Sony qbout SOMETHING today, even if you have to make it up?
Sony didn't invent online passes. 3rd party publishers all joined together and came up with it together so they could try and make SOME money from used games. Sony published games were among the last to use them, if they even do at all (havnt been able to buy new retail games for a while)
Yeah, I mean I think Sony even revealed MORE in the way of hardware specs, just not the design of the box. MS showed the box but had very little focus on the hardware itself. Pretty strange conclusion for the author of this article to come to about hardware.
Let's recap.
Hardware even MS themselves hardly felt was worth talking about.

Typically I'm against swearing on public internet spaces. But man.....saying "Xbox: Fuck Off" after watching that reveal may be the quote of the year. Bubble for you, sir. I was laughing so hard I was brought to tears.

Uh-Oh !!! I know a certain gaming "journalist" who doesn't have a very good comprehension of:
1) Business. Gran Turismo cost tens of millions of dollars to create and you have to make that money back.....plus profit.....otherwise why not just close up shop now?..... That money can only be made back on PS3 with it's 70+million install base. They could only lose tens of millions releasing it as a PS4 launch game to an install base starting from scratch.
PC is obviously the best platform to besically do whatever you want to do with complete freedom, even infringing on other companies products as long as it's given away for free. But is PC the best platform for making money? I think that's a completely different story. And PSN may indeed be the best platform for that.
Hasn't PSN had the most digital sales of any other digital games platforms? I thought I heard a few devs mention having the highest sales on PSN. ANd...
I would ALMOST agree with Tools of Destruction. The game really was so good. But unfortunately it's one disappointment was SO major that it just doesn't even come to mind. That is that the online in the last PS2 Ratchets were so great and so much fun, that Tools not having a similar online caused me to even cancel my pre-order.
Toold of Destruction with like...Full Frontal Assault's online would have been my dream R&C game.
Yup, Heavy Rain is the first thing that came to mind for me as well.
For me, it's either that, Dragon Age Origins, MGS4 or GT5 which will be replaced with a 6 later in the year since it's the same game just better in every way.
We still got some BIG'UNS to come too!!
I've been saying this for quite a long time now, but I think this was the best generation of gaming. The amount of good quality games with great features this gen...
LOVED 9 as well, and it made me love 1 even more than I originally did.
If you don't like 8 much, look up a site called "squall's dead" or something like that. It's like this crazy conspiracy theory about the game, that I actually think is right. And while it didn't make me "LIKE" the game any more than I did, it kinda gives you (me) a whole new appreciation for 8 and makes you look at it a different way.
It's a very interesting and fairly quick read and I suggest checking it out to any FF fan that may have...
Yeah, because if there weren't an alterior motive, Spike TV would just HATE to have something that would actually pull ratings away from RAW. TV channels HATE high ratings.......lol.
That's the rediculous part. EVERYONE (gamers) wants to see the Sony conference start to finish. Millions of people would be watching Spike at 9pm Monday night if they were airing the event. But because Spike/GameTrailers is in bed with M$ by way of Viacom, they are just throwing away thos...
