GT5 Prologue news (good for japs, not good for everyone else)

[Lauren]

Okay its up on the Jap PSN. Trouble is unless you have a credit card with a jap address there is no way of buying it.

Anyways some of the Merkins have bought it from Japan, here are some first impression threads and screenshots/vids:

installs nearly 5gig to the internal HD

Has anyone upgraded there PS3 drive already and if so can you just copy downloaded content/PSN downloads from drive to drive if you do upgrade later or is it somehow locked?

so how much does it cost to buy half a game?

/predictable.

JAM.. looks like its going to be about £20.

You can take stuff straight off the hardrive with a flash drive via the usb, although this depends on how much you have in and how big(ie memory)your flash drive is.

only half as much as it does to buy the full new tomb raider add on for the 360. sony arent as much as a rip off as moneysoft

Suppose you can preorder the Asian version which has normally has some english in it in Jan. Word is the final GT5 should have a full 650 list of cars in it. Cant wait!!

???? your point??
gt prologue or "half a game" as you put it only costs £20
which is HALF the price of the full tombraider download on the 360 so half a game is half the price of a full one

[SamUK]

point is its a full completed game.


you say sony arent as bad as 'moneysoft'. well when have MS ever released a game when its not finished?

and you think sony are doing it for the fans?


they want more money and they kno the PS3 is desperate for a killer app. simple as.

[H3RB]

hit the nail on the head there mike.

how is gt prologue half a game??? because it doesn't have as many tracks or cars as forza?? nobody set an amount of content a game should have to be considered a full game and hey at 5.6 gig its as big/bigger then most 360 games so maybe they should have released it as a full 360 game

[mikee66]

i honestly think he's a very childish bloke mate, everytime there is a post about ps3's he nips in to try and "sneakily" slag them off. i mean wtf who really gives a xxxx! at the end of the day it's summit to do when you are bored and your missus has a headache!

[Antstarr]

At the moment and time the 360 has better games imo but give it a year or 2 the PS3 will defo have a better long term run against the 360 no doubt.

Look at the titles coming up such as GT5, Final Fantasy XIII, Tekken 6, Metal Gear solid 4, Res Evil 5, Street Fighter 4, Devil May cry 4.....360 doesnt have many solid titles other than a few of the PS3 games i mentioned and Halo 3 which I dont rate much anyway.

PGR + Forza dont even touch the GT series...FACT!

Cant say my gfs Wii doesnt keep me happy either tho.

er no i believe they did the same 4 gt4 and a concept game
plus this doesnt come out until march

I get the impression that even if GT5 prologue was free Sam would find some way to criticise it.

Basically the way I see it is that if it isn't something from Uncle Bill, Sam doesn't like it.

[SamUK]

lol.

you guys spend ages talking about cars. i talk about consoles as i dont have a car at the mo, it jus seems some of you take it personally.

i wonder if someone came in here saying you were all boy racers, what would happen.

if it was free i wouldnt complain at all. cos then it would be called a demo.

its half a game cos there releasing the same thing with more content later are they not?

i may have misunderstood.

oh and i like the wii and even the PSP. jus dont rate the PS3.

Just out of interest Sam, can i ask how old you are?

And honestly I don't take anything you say personally.
