Tourist Trophy

[JOHNSTON]

Does someone know a DEFINATE date for it's release ,i've just read somewhere on here it's getting released tommorow (friday)but I thought it was out on the second of next month.If anyone knows please tell me because if it's out tomorrow then i'll be up early to go get it

[F.M]

I spotted a cardboard cut out outside my vid game shop saying friday...hope it`s tommorow ...as opposed to next fri..

[JOHNSTON]

Have you been to the shop today to try an buy it ? Was it there ?

[The DJ 27]

I've got it on pre-order from play.com and according to them (and Amazon) it's been moved back again to next Friday. Don't understand what the delay is, it's been out in the US and Japan for a couple of months now

I have just been on the web site. No new tracks other than those in GT4.

Im sick of the GT4 tracks, so wont be getting this game. Very Poor.

[JOHNSTON]

I was a bit annoyed about there not being any new tracks but i'm not really fussed because it's still got the nurbegring I hope that when the next gran turismo comes out for the ps3 you'll have bikes and cars on track at the same time.

According to what I have found out (asked in game and they showed me the press release thingy) its out on the 9th.

It has Valencia circuit on it and i'm there was another new one.

Yeah, then it can be exactly like the real Nurburgring with a mass of bikes and cars taking up the track, with the odd coachload of tourist thrown in to keep your on your toes.

++++++BREAKING NEWS++++++

Just got a call from Game (Got my name on the reserve list), Tourist Trophy is now in stock and will be on the shelves tomorrow.

Even the girl who called couldnt understand getting the stock in as they were still under the impression it was launching next weekend. Off to get my copy tomorrow lunchtime....

Woo hoo

[JOHNSTON]

cant wait

Still hammering toca race driver 3 online, so I think I may give this one a miss. Mates in the US reckon that the game is over dead quick, so unless hotlapping the ring does it for you (it does for me), don't expect to get many hours out of the game.

[JOHNSTON]

Trust me i'm like you I could hammer round the nurbergring all day long

BTW is there a lot of people playing toca online because its the only game i've got to play when I get my ps2 adaptor-thingy

[hugoagogo]

saw it yesterday in my local video rental shop, believe it or not

anyone know if it's any good then?

[skibum]

Bought it today from Virgin for £29.99 so will have a play over the weekend. I'm a massive GT fan so have high expectations. It'll be interesting to see how customisable the bikes/riders will be.

[JOHNSTON]

I've just bought it i'll tell yous what I think later on

[F.M]

...It`s fantastic ..the replays are gorgeous and the handling is good ...
Waheyy .... !!

It pays to ride slightly easier than you would GT4..

Yeah, loads. 130 odd last time I checked. You cn always get a game, and once you have found a bunch of people who you enjoy racing with, it works really well. Only slight downside is that you realloy need to get a USB headset too. Without it, you'll find yourself being accused of being the cause of crashes, and you'll inevitably get kicked and banned if you cant claim if was someone else.

I race as DR.M3KON if you are on.

[JOHNSTON]

brilliant game

just got my expert liscence,the racing cbr600 and a simpson bandit helmet

[Civpilot]

Agree with the above... this game is superb.

Only bothered to get my first 2 licences so far as I've been concentrating on challenges to win bikes. It's nice to ride the Buell around Monaco, bit twitchy in low speed leans though.

What gets me is how different the bikes actually ride, They have really nailed this on the game. Some of them have truely shocking brakes, yet a couple of the CBR's are impossible to drop it seems.

Oh, and as it has photo mode I'm guessing that a thread will be started sometime later?
