I've pre-ordered quite a few times from play and have always got the game on the delivery date specified. Still awaiting for todays post (any minute now) to see if I get it a day early.

Graphics are spot on, handling is excellent.

In what respect?

It's obviously much prettier. I've only done a few races in the ek9 and it's very "Gran Turismo" in the handling. I always felt forza was very arcadey.

The karts are hard the first time as you try to drive them like a car lol.

Just did the top gear test track in a camper van which was odd and SLOW

I didn't get mine either, but to be fair I didn't expect it till tomorrow. Play tend to deliver on time and have never been early IME. In related news Tom has made me a steering wheel and pedal set stand so I can use it on the sofa. He's got some minor mods to make tomorrow but it'll be ready to start off GT5 with. :+:

Yeah just if it looked better and if they had done big improvements over Prologue. How's the damage and weather aspect?
