The thing is now that the PS4 will use x86 architecture they could have started GT7 ages ago as the hardware is the same as PC.
Do you know that they haven't already?

Before I pull the trigger, is Amazon the cheapest place to pre-order the regular version? It's £35 at the mo.

£39.95 on shopto. They are usually cheapest so 35 sounds good.
ShopTo here too, on Graham's recommendation.

It's not the hard drive that would speed it up.

Gt5 is slow but it's worse if you haven't preloaded the game and running of the disc still.

They've already said that they've improved loading times for gt6 and reduced the menus too.
How do you pre-load games on PS3?

Blade it was an install option on gt5 - you can check in the gt5 options section - takes about 50 mins
Thanks Dice, I'll have a look at it next time I fire the PS3 up.

Hopefully the new track creator will give us the capability to map the British circuits.
Have you seen the new track creator?

Thanks again

Just pre-ordered using the code above thumbup.

Had £10 worth of award points too, so it only came to £40.

Looking forward to it now.
You would enjoy it even more if you joined the right championship.


No wait.. hold on. Don't join. As then I would get my butt kicked by F1 and YOU. Forget what I said. wink

I've been a huge GT fan since the very first one, but GT5 ended up losing my interest after I tried Forza. However, I don't feel like I can miss one and will probably buy GT6.

I have a few questions that I hoped someone who has kept up with GT6 news could answer, most of them are age-old:

1) Do all cars have cockpit cameras this time around?
2) Is there still a 2nd hand dealer and do they have equal graphics yet?
3) Have they introduced custom liveries of any sort yet?
1. No - standard cars from gt5 will have silouette as per gt5 (these are being carried over)

2. Doesn't appear so. The info stated one dealer and all cars available to buy in that dealer. Standard cars will still exist

3. Yes, but details hazy - it would appear that race cars will have a "base" model to which you can customise a livery but nothing like forza. This may not be the case though just my understanding from reading the gt6 site
A shame about no cockpit view for ALL cars but No problem for me as I use bumpercam on GT (Cockpit on Forza).

Probably been done already but do you guys think it's a mistake releasing it on ps3 instead of the fast approaching ps4?

Ive ordered gt6 and will wait for the PS4 to come down in price. In absolutely no hurry I rarely play consoles these days but still love the odd drive on gt5
Yep...PS4 looks to be a real let down games wise.
I'll pick up a PS4 in spring when/if some worthy exclusives come along.

have they mentioned anything about wheel support yet?

i have a logitech g27 gathering dust since gt5, i made a big fancy cockpit with bucket seat and everything but had to dismantle it because of the space it took up.

i remember gt5 being a bit of a dissapointment, and i wasnt going to bother with this, but seen as im not getting a ps4 for a while and gta online has failed to keep my attention i might crumble, at least you get several hours of gran turismo before it gets tiresome so its not completely money wasted.

if i remember, gt5 didnt directly have g27 support. the clutch never worked properly, you couldnt heel and toe: infact the car automatically blipped the throttle on downshifts for you anyway so it was pointless, and there was barely any settings for deadzones etc.

i believe they only supported their own thrustmaster wheel, and no others. if it doesnt come with g27 support i probably wont bother
Yep there was an update ages ago with full support and button mapping. The only thing you cant do is reduce the steering lock from 900.
lol I can hear Paulwoof saying "Doh" from here rofl
