You really like that thing, don't ya... But who doesn't

Actualy all Japanese cars, but the skyline sedan ER34 is one of my favorite. But the 2004 season car that was in GT4 had a much nicer body kit and decal scheme than the 08 car thats in GT5p.
 
Nice vid, did anyone else notice the increase in the amount of grass :P ? (I'm comparing to the japanese demo)
 
I have one, but important (to me) question.. What about d-pad? How does it work in Prologue? Like it should (analogue) or like in GT HD (digital :/)??

Do you play on the controller? Thats pretty cool, I had a friend who played GT3 with the D-pad. Sorry I didn't have an answer for you.
 
Yes D pad works, at least in the Japanese version
Cheers of missing out all the fun with the wheel ;)
 
Amar, can you please for the sake of all us Honda fans, be so kind as to give us an interior shot of the Amuse S2000 GT1 Turbo. Us Honda fans would love to see the digital tach in action. Thanks for any response at all.
 
Fantastic video again Amar!! Thanks again for everything.

I don't think this has been posted yet though:

Just a small preview of the US version from IGN, follow to the videos page, and there are a couple of new gameplay videos. Nothing like the F40, but i'll attempt to contribute what i can find.

Full lap video of High Speed Ring. Very nice.

It looks pretty good. In that video, notice the optimal racing line and, if I'm guessing at this correctly, there appears to be a speed indicated for the apex based on the line you're taking. It changed from 96MPH to 91MPH.

Also nice to see the lighting effects entering and exiting the tunnel. Very nice as amar described, but better now that I've got a visual idea of the improvements. The same goes for London and the tunnel at Eiger. Wonderful.
 
Oh my god... ok its a shaky camera... but my god.... that F2007 video is stunning... seriously, the replay is so convincing! WOW

And the F40 sounds sooo good... wow.

Great stuff there!

One comment i noticed which sort of bugs me because I'm watching instead of playing (most probably)... the hand that reaches for the shifter is lagged... or feels/appear lagged.. am i the only one who feels that way? I feel the hand should reach quicker for the shifter and return quicker... but anyways... small small detail.
 
Amar212, thanks for the F40 video, it's amazing. I brought the game myself yesterday and almost finished A-Class. But comparing with JP version, this has lower framerate in replays and it's really noticeable. I think the framerate is about 20 fps and that's little low for me. And physics appear slightly tuned to basic level even in professional mode. Rev limiter now sounds weird, it's like engine volume on 30% and no rev counter style bouncing. On the good side, High Speed Ring is very nice track and I bought Vette Z06 and OMG, that sound is much more throaty, especially at high revs and it has HUD actually! Plus HDR lightning seems to be better ballanced this time, London isn't so dark.
 
Some hardcore driving there! The F40 sounds amazing, and I liked the way you overtook the cars on the first corner, but do you think the AI is low in that race for the first cars you overtake? that 599 in front of you right at the start went slower than I thought it could go, but the last few cars obviously had higher skill. It also seems you don't have to do it as well as you did, you had a good 15 seconds I think in front of the black mask GTR.
