Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but can anyone clarify the PSP car transferring? Are all 830 of those cars already included in GT5 to drive in A-spec? Or is it like a pretend car in B-spec (assuming I understand A and B correctly)?

And does this guarantee that there will be drivable RUF cars in GT5? Because that's actually what I've been trying to find out for the last 15 minutes, which led me to the car list for the PSP.

From the news page:
"Re-confirmation that “all” of your cars in Gran Turismo PSP can be transferred to GT5 and will be playable in Arcade Mode."

If it's like GT4, then both A-Spec & B-Spec
 
Fanatstic write up Blitz! It truly does make the delay a bit easier to swallow. I must say though, what are your impressions on the SL? I think that has to be one of the best looking cars on the market. Got any more pics of it? If not it's all good, you've done more than enough with info that was lacking. I'm glad SOMEONE mentioned the PSP functionality! Once more, great job blitz!

I guess what I meant was: will those cars be in the game for everyone, or only those with a PSP? I can't imagine that you're literally transferring the car model from the PSP to the PS3, so it seems like those cars must "already be in the game." In which case, do those with a PSP just get the cars early, or do we think non-PSP-owners (like myself) will have to pay to unlock them??
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it is the 2nd option just for the same reason you mention: the car's are in the game anyway, and by transferring them from your PSP -where you've already earned the cash to buy them- you can unlock them on the PS3 as well. It's like you say: I have car's #3, #5 and #8 on the PSP, allow me to use the corresponding cars on the PS3 and <check> there they are available. In arcade mode, that is.
 




Wanted to share this one with you guys. Awelfull quality, but gets better. Later in the video :sly:

All the cars are in the game there already, my guess is it's just a matter of purchasing them to unlock them in Arcade Mode, if you have the PSP, then it's just transferring them. Then you get to use them immediately in the Arcade. But at this point we have very little specific information.
 
Wow, seriously, no adjustable HUD? Absolutely no way I'm paying full price for the game, I don't care. The one thing Forza got right they can't even copy.
 
Kaz doesn't even know what Forza is. I dunno how true it is, but apparently they don't play any other racing games. It is unnecessary, as they have thought of everything already. :rolleyes:
 
Oh come on, Kaz will have played other racing games to get ideas to mke his better he ain't retarded you know. But one more question what are official events?

Then dont buy it and play your Forza Arcade game.
 
Forza 3 has steering Aid that can not be turned off. With or without a wheel, so I dont get why anyone would call that game a sim.
 
# Car Delivery is when one of your friends have given you a car as a present or gift.

So what do you want to call it then. ;)

Arcade-Sim, but a bit more sim.



Youp, a Arcade-Sim

Too bad there are no sims on the Consoles. Those so called sims on PS3 and Xbox feel arcade, GT5 TT demo felt the most par with iRacing. I bet GT5 will be only true sim for for consoles.

I really hope Fm4 has that stupid thing as an option to be turned off. Because I do love GT games the most, but I would love to have more simulators on the consoles.

These are the standard GT events.
