:ouch:....I forgot....so, why not a GTR...đź’ˇ

Well, does anybody knows what will be exactly this "New Track"?? Can it be some of the circuits speculated here, like the tuscany track?

a specially created section
Maybe they created something with the track editor.....:sly:
 
Who you calling a roach?

I guess we should take this argument to the track when this comes out, because if we took it to the footy match you'd get owned, am I right?


Dan, they won't use a GTR race car (though apparently they used them for training) because the GTR sits in the GT1 category, it's a lot more expensive, a lot faster, and probably not the best for 'beginners'.
 
However gamers in countries not mentioned on the list need not fear as there will be a special Gran Turismo 5 Time Trial Challenge for them to get to grips with it, too

!!
 
Quick question was the 1st academy locked on pro physics,I know it was N1's for tyres.

I hope the G25 has proper support in the options this time.
 
Actually, what would even be better, if the guy in 21st was from NSW. Silly roaches you can't drive or even play footy!
You're both wrong! Victoria and WA are the states with the brains (Aah, perhaps not WA). But anyway... both your states are rubbish at playing Footy. And Rugby is a horrid game for small-minded idiots. (Trying to build a bit of tension for the comp :) ).

I'm thinking the new track for the demo will be the Spain city track announced about a year ago. Can't seem to find it in the news history though.
 
There shouldn't be any doubt.


"it will be the first opportunity to get a hands-on taster as to what Yamauchi-san and his Polyphony team have been carefully crafting and polishing at their Tokyo base."


Also the pics with the blog piece have a much higher poly count than prologue.
 
Great news!

Victoria? brains!? Thats a laugh! :lol:
 
Will it cost money??

So I wonder who thought it would be a good idea to exclude the US?

and dude stop complaining, it'll be crap anyway. one car and probably 2 tracks. Besides you Americans get your Nascars in the full version anyway.
 
Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy!

With it being an European demo, it will have english menus so I'm not worried about a demo coming to US.
 
This is an exert from the GT Academy Facebook.

"GT Academy 2010 will test your racing skills to the limit. Swap your sofa for a real race car with PlayStation and Nissan in the ultimate virtual to reality racing competition.

From December 17th, you can download the exclusive GT Academy Time Trial from PlayStation(R)Store to prove to your friends, your country and yourself that you have what it takes to be a professional racing driver.

Only the fastest PS3 racers will enter the GT Academy at Silverstone where we will see if you can cut it on a REAL race track, with REAL pressure and with a REAL race-tuned Nissan 370Z at your control. Only one winner will get to live their racing dream in the Euro GT4 Cup.

GT Academy 2010 on Facebook is the only place to get the very latest information, news and details on how you can take part in the competition. Watch this space!

GT Academy 2010 is open to participants from the following countries;

AUSTRIA
BELGIUM
FRANCE
GERMANY
IRELAND
ITALY
NETHERLANDS
PORTUGAL
SPAIN
SWITZERLAND
UK
AUSTRALIA
NEW ZEALAND
DENMARK
FINLAND
NORWAY
SWEDEN

Anyone who holds, or has held, a national or international race licence will not qualify for GT Academy. This rule is there to maintain the purity of the "virtual to real" challenge.

COMPETITORS HAVE TO BE OVER 18 TO ENTER"

Stage One - will offer Gran Turismo fans a sneak preview of the hotly-anticipated Gran Turismo 5 game, due for release during 2010. Competitors will record flying laps on a time trial-based track available via PlayStation®Network, accessed through PS3. Unlike the first GT Academy, participants will not have to enter the competition using the GT5 PrologueTM game itself, and so even more hopeful racing drivers are expected to take part.

Stage Two – the holders of the twenty fastest online lap times from each participating country will qualify for their national final event. Tensions will run high as they battle each other on another exclusive Gran Turismo 5 level for the chance to move to the next phase of the competition.

Kazunori Yamauchi, president of Polyphony Digital and creator of the Gran Turismo series, shares Wijnen’s enthusiasm. “This has been a very rewarding partnership. The whole GT Academy concept is very close to my heart. Our target with the Gran Turismo series has always been to come as close as possible to a real driving experience. To witness the level of driving achieved by GT players after a relatively short space of time at the GT Academy was very satisfying for me and I look forward to seeing the 2010 finalists in action. I am also very happy to have the opportunity for our GT community to have a preview of the Gran Turismo 5 game.”

The online section of the game will run from 17 December until 24 January with national finals following soon afterwards. The GT Academy itself takes place from 26 February until 3 March. The two winners will have to quickly clear their diaries, as their intensive training programme will start immediately and culminate in one driver racing in the opening European GT4 Cup race that could be at Silverstone on 2 May.
 
What's GT Academy???? Is it dealing with real cars or cars from Gran Turismo 5????!!
GT academy is a competition in GT, the best 20 will go to silverstone and get trained in a real car, finally one person gets selected and gets a place in a real competition.

BTW:
demo is gt5 code
It is GT5 code, not GT5P
