jettadeluxe Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Typical, I just forked out £230 for an xBox 360... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riz Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 The official date for the release of GT5 Prologue is the 28th if I remember correctly. This is just the tip of the ice-berg, wait until the full GT5 game is out..... I think this will be a good boost for PlayStation3 sales including LittleBigPlanet, PlayStation Home, PlayTV, Metal Gear Solid etc. Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
330dcoupe Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 The new GT5 will have online capabilities - we should create a room for the TNS members when it's released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pontyslapper Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Riz, You've just confirmed what I thought - is it more like GT 4.5?? The wife said that the graphics looked good - so I must be on for a PS3 now?!? The ad we saw had the Tesco logo in the top corner. Think I'll wait for GT5 proper though.

[/ QUOTE ]Yes its a slice of cake... something to keep us going until the full title is finished..... I wouldnt call it a demon as there is alot on offer (played the Jap version a few months ago) Yes the graphics are nice and crisp, realistic engine notes, in-car dash view, full online play with GT-TV. I would deffo consider the PlayStation3 but not just as a games machine, its does a brill job with movies and music too, more like a all in on solution. PlayTV is a twin-tuner freeview module which is due sometime soon, allows you to record just like a PVR onto your PlayStation3 HDD etc, also allows you to move your recorded contect to other devices (no copy protection) in its native MPEG2 format. One of the key features is that it will upscale all of its feed, ensuring crisp picture quality just like it does when upscaling dvd movies. I dont think that Sony are going to be charging the full amount for GT5 Prologue, I would estimate between £18-33 for the title. I wouldnt hold out for the full GT5 games as the wait will just be too long..... I would say another year. Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSE Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Game will be selling GT5 Prologue for £19.99. Play are selling it for £18.99. Released on 28/3. Think I am going to hold out for the complete package though and get GTA instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
330dcoupe Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Is the game compatible with the PS2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullett Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 £17.99 on play. Mine is pre-ordered. It's only ps3 as far as I know. I'm very interested in PlayTV. If it's good then I'll probably drop my Sky+ sub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbgwz Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Gran turismo is an always will be a Playstation exclusive and GT5 is PS3 i cant see them ever retro releasing a GT game as they are the pinnacle of what a console can do and theyve always focused on the best hardware and software that they can work with and that will always be the next gen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bells0 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 So tempted to order a Logitech G25 to play this........mucho £ though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4ttm4son Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I'm off snowboarding on 29th. Tempted to preorder GT5 prologue and take the 28th off work - or will I just be torturing myself when I have to say bye bye? I think, with 16(?) player races online we could have some serious TsN racing. Could also do some cool YouTube antics too, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullett Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Does the G25 work with the PS3 then? I have one for my PC racing. It's great BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riz Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Yes the Logitec G25 does supposedly work but a official GT one is out soon. Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bells0 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 GT25 is not officially listed as working, but does according to reports on the Jap version.

[/ QUOTE ]No alot of people assume that prologue is just a demo, I had the GT4 prologue for the PS2 and it was more of a 1st base stepping stone to the full title, you complete the different races and gain points and cars, when you bought the GT4 then these were transfered over into the full game. I would say GT5 Prologue is alot more compared to what GT4 prologue was, GT4 prologue was a taster to GT4 but wasnt long enough and did seem abit like a demo. Having played GT5 prologue already I personally think its worth getting for the £20 they are asking. It fills the gap nicely until GT5 is out.
