I really wish they would release this Mofo....I am dying for a driving sim on the PS3 and with the crazy amount of features this game has I cannot bring myself to dish out money on anything else.....since I know it will be tossed to the wayside as soon as this game comes out.

» and the kitchen sink?

The list made me smile because it's packing it so much that I've wanted from GT5 Great online options, photo modes, youtube support, physical damage (both interior and exterior), splitscreen, custom sound tracks! 1000 cars, 60 race tracks!?

» head tracking

No mention of the 3d head tracking using the ps eye? Check out ign if you want to know more.

by TheDude - 2009-08-19 10:06
» hmm

Says at the bottom able to track movement of *****pit camera. Maybe I should take my own advice about reading the article, although its not very clear in the translation.

» custom soundtrack?..

wow.. thats awesome!!.. didnt microsoft patented this kind of feature?..

by GUNBEHINDTHESUN - 2009-08-19 22:46
» custom soundtracks

I think Microsoft patented custom soundtracks for online gaming only. Already there are PS3 titles that support custom soundtracks but I don't think any of them are allowed to do it via online play. It depends on the developer if they want to incorporate custom soundtracks in their games or not for the PS3.
