sorry, I know GT5 will be a great sim game but I had to put it up
The F1 in GT5 looks great.

Onca again
realistic handling Vs, mickey Mouse handling, I know which I prefer..

LMAO!
For there crashing in GT5 they needed like a boING effect...

It's true that GRID is much more fun.
But as for realism, GT5 will always win.

The whole GT series has been unparalleled since they hit the market!
The only thing that even comes close would be Forza.

Bought a PS3 today (got fed up having a 42" TV with no HD inputs!).

All I can say is wow. GT5P looks great, and I may well go and liberate my local games retail outlet of GRID tomorrow. And CoD4...

Welcome to the PS3 world Charlie... Make sure you get a few Blu-ray movies to realise the potential of your TV  ;) Is it 1080 or 720 resolution?

Not a bad deal. pick up a copy of ferrari challenge or F1CE and i'll give you some online races, I think Rob has F1 aswell, mini simv league,

....after the death of our 18mth old 32".

That's not very good, 18 months is a very short life span for a TV.. did you take it up with the manufacturer? I'd be fuming...

I'd recommend F1CE too, although it's a bit dated now.. but the graphics are superb! Very few PS3 games run at 1080p, most of them are 720p (my TV's resolution) so look at the back of the case before buying  ;)

How's Ferrari Challenge Craig? Does it live up to the hype?

graphics arnt great.
handling the best I've ever experienced.
A.I. very good, but at times a little too annoying. They defend the inside line of corners, they'll move about to break the slipstream, but they'll also at high speed block you causing an accident at times.
For me I love it, for others the fact its limited to ferrari might get a little tiresome after a while. But i'd definitly recommend it.

Evesham - since gone bust and taken over my new owners. Not a hope, particularly as it was only a 12 month warranty.

[color=#0000ff]The best thing about GRID though is the Drift GP. I became obsessed with that discipline and is the only thing I wish GT could adopt (heard there'll be such a mode)

There is a Drift option in GT5 Prologue, it's something that A: I can't get the hang of, and B: Doesn't interest me at all.
Anyway GT5 is all about speed and lap times... and you'll never go faster sliding around all over the place  ;D  :P
