2013 Middle East General Discussion

Losailracer7
There is a demo available in the US store also. It didn't work with me but maybe it does with you.

Give it a try

It wouldn't work for anyone because that was the demo for the earlier GT Academy and ended in July.
 
People I managed to find it on a Kuwaiti PSN Store under Gt Academy 2012 .
the countdown is on and when you select the product to download from the store the information written about it is recent and a perfect match to what is written on the gran turismo main site.
When you run the mini game you can see that the Countdown is working fine with like 40 something days left to go .
Adjust the filter with the eligible countries and race under the flag you like.
I'm actually the only Lebanese competing.
Good Luck
 
Hey Niko_9,

They will probably announce the location when it gets close to the date. Keep your eye out for the website and the forums.

During previous competitions in the middle east I actually heard about them by coincidence on the Radio.

Nismo-Bh might know something.
 
Wait, I can access the mini-game using a Bahraini IP? If so, please tell me which PSN store has the game.

@losailracer and niko

I think it will either be at Ashraf or Virgin, or a stand-alone thing at city center.
 
Yeah the IP address doesn't matter. You should be able to download from the Bahrain psn store if not make a UAE account and play with ur Bahraini account.

But sorry to say man the online ranking doesn't apply to Bahrain. You have to go to the live event. Check gran-turismo. com
 
I searched for gt academy 2012 in the uae store,it says in tye description compete with the best from europe,or is this not the one?
 
Actually I am nismo-bh ..
I just hope that its not in city center because it might be nightmare as some people might not even know what gran turismo is and wait for so long for your turn.
 
Hi all, is there a way to separate our region's results from those of South Africa and the rest of the world ?

anyone knows of a website or link or something ???

Nice to see some middle eastern guys heading the rankings.
Tka_tha, Niko_9.....Awesome Job guys really! :D

Thanks. I thought I'd put a good effort in round 2-5. I'll try to do the same for rounds 3-5, 4-5, 5-5, etc.

Yeah I complained about that in the first page. Damn shame. Cheers

That's what I said, that's what I'm afraid of. It's unfair that we have to stand in line for hours for 100 morons who would probably finish the lap(s) in twice the time.

Thanks.. I consider this as a practice for the live event
hmm, wasn't aware people in Bahrain are fast. Where are you from? Looks like I'll have to assassinate you before the event.
 
Hi people, is it possible for me to download this with a Middle Eastern and play and get the prizes on my main UK account? I somehow missed out on one of the prizes I should have got.

It seems possible, as I saw a GTplanet member from the UK on the leaderboards, and I had no record on there, so it must be the right leaderboard.

Lol.. I havent seen any bahraini in leaderboard ...
 
A few things:
If you live in a country outside of the Middle East or South Africa, you don't need to download it from their Playstation Stores if you already have it- I have the original download for the UK and it still works.
Also, if you want to get the prize cars again, you will need to delete your Academy save, as the message won't appear, although you can get more than 40 golds...
 
I have a question to ask.
In live events for the wild card how many tries do you get per day is it only one?!!
