sinbad Posted November 6, 2007 Author Posted November 6, 2007 No your right Dan, the handling did go abit potty. GT5 is much better and its easier to get the tail out but i'm finding it hard to drift. The lighter cars aren't too bad but the 405bhp Lexus is a right hand full. Once the back end steps out theres pretty much no catching it. I'll be buying GT5 no matter what but i hope the handling improves abit upon releasing it. GT4 took the fun out of the cars. Quote
sinbad Posted December 20, 2007 Author Posted December 20, 2007 those pics are awesome Not sure if you've played it but to be fair the demo doesnt look far off the pics, especially the in car one of the skyline. Quote
Ian Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Looks amazing, Still dont think its enough to warrant me buying a PS3 though Quote
sinbad Posted December 20, 2007 Author Posted December 20, 2007 Looks amazing, Still dont think its enough to warrant me buying a PS3 though Probably not but theres some good titles out now including assisins creed, Need for speed Prostreet, and call of duty 4. Not to mention its still one of the best blu rays players on the market and has email/internet capabilities. With the recent price drop as well its not a bad piece of kit for the money... Quote
Ian Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 I got Prostreet on the 360 last week & not been impressed with it so far At the moment theres not a lot available on the PS3 that I cant get on the 360 so ill stick with the 360 for now Quote
H5 Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Looks amazing, Still dont think its enough to warrant me buying a PS3 though Not on it's own, no. But the DVD player and other capabilities (plus a mate working for Sony! ) would. What Sound and Vision recommend it as a DVD player alone too. Only thing that could be questioned is the sound output. Quote
stuey Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 i want one.............. seems to be only the 40 gig ones available at the mo Quote
neo Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 rumours are that a 80 gig version may be launched next year (yanks have it already) not sure if it would play PS2 games tho Quote
H5 Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 rumours are that a 80 gig version may be launched next year (yanks have it already) not sure if it would play PS2 games tho Apparently it is hit and miss as to whether it does. Some do, some don't. That is the limit of my technical understanding! Quote

Some do, some don't. That is the limit of my technical understanding! teh 40gb from what i know doesnt have the ps2 playback capability, only the 60gb and 80gb do. The 40gb doesnt have the memory card readers (SD etc..) either. If i was anyone in the market for one, id go 60gb and get an external HD if you felt the need. again im not 100% but i believe only the 40gb and 80gb will be available in the future. The 60gb will becoming extint. Quote
neo Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 true, once the 60gig stock runs out then it'll be the 40gig for while. yes the 40gig one misses the PS2 playback, no card reader like you say and a few less usb ports, i can see many a disappointed child/parents trying to play their old PS2 games on it on christmas morning Quote
stuey Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 i wonder wen the 80 gigs will be available............... i was lead to believe that it will be the same price....... Quote
H5 Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 So to decipher that lot, go for the 80 gig one?? Quote
neo Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 yes, if and when it arrives as it SHOULD be able to play PS2 (if you've still got some) you could of course try and find a 60gig version in the shops, there may still be a few left Quote
H5 Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 yes, if and when it arrives as it SHOULD be able to play PS2 (if you've still got some) you could of course try and find a 60gig version in the shops, there may still be a few left I friend of mine recently started work for Sony Europe, and apprently they have a staff shop........ 80 gig in the New Year then!!

neo Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 result sorry for the slight off topic GT5 does look very good Quote
