If it's anything close to PGR4's sounds, I'll be satisfied.

I'm not worried about them nailing modern engine notes. Most modern cars, even race cars, are sterile enough in sound that it can't be very hard.
The sounds they're going to have to work hard to get right, though, are the older cars. A modern, computer-controlled digital engine breathing in through an enclosed box and out through an exhaust that's tuned for acoustics is one thing, but the real test is how they handle 45-year-old analog technology. Let's see how they handle an engine that is basically two straight sixes bolted together that's fed with a primitive mechanical fuel injection system that pours avgas down 12 10-inch trumpets that exhales through an exhaust system designed simply to get hot gas out of the engine as quickly as possible.
Skip ahead to about 1:05.
The XJ13 is in GT5, and I hope it sounds as alive as the real thing.

Sounds damn close, if you ask me...
I'm very much looking forward to slipping on my Tritton AX Pro's and listening to all the different vehicles in Arcade Mode.
I can't wait to hear some of the older cars. Even back in the GT3 days, PD could cobble together a good sounding engine if they put their mind (and resources) to it (anyone remember the GT40 Road Car?)
The problem, I fear as always, will be in the consistency. The Veyron being a clear indication of this.
Yet, that STi sounds pretty good. I'm overall quite impressed.

They should have just used an Audi V8 sample for the veyron sound, as IMO it is similar, or even an SLS for that matter. Although the Veyron does not sound bad, PD have it sounding totally different to the real car.
Common sense would suggest, if you can't sample the real car, sample a car that sounds similar.

Ok it may just be me then but I think the GT5 counterpart sounds a bit too agressive at the higher rpms.
Not directly related to sound but I noticed something else about the rpm gauge which worries me a lot more. The red line in the rpm gauge starts at about 6700 rpms on the real WRX STI 2011 but in GT5 the red line starts at 8000 rpms. It's the exact same car so isn't that a rather critical error in GT5?
Is it me, or do I hear some warble from this Mine's R34 GT-R on upshifts?
Sounds different to the Prologue version BTW

I'm sorry man, but if that's the new sound of the Mines R34, that is another let down for me. They should have just kept it the same as prologue. You can watch a handful of videos on youtube of Tsuchiya, Orido, and many others whipping the Mines around the track, and it doesn't sound like that GT5 video.

The Veyron thing is very scamped. I can't believe they didn't model this masterpiece of automobile industry to premium and yet they've used some V10 clone sound for it while Micras and Capuccinos are premium with adequate sound. This is just sad story.
Being the man in Bugatti that decides about licenses, I would just kick them their ass without any hesitation. Poor Veyron!

Not likely as even the people that get to drive it on track can't rev it past a certain point. There is only 1 example of that car with the original engine. They're not going to let PD rev it to record sounds.
The bottom end of the rev range should sound ok, but PD will have to manufacture the rest of it
That's what it will sound like. You can also hear some gearbox clacks
This is also the build where the final SLS sounds can be also heard. Better than the E3 and Gamescome demos. So the XJ13 example above will probably stay as it is.

The car could be tuned? This allows for higher rev limits on some cars, doesn't it? Or am I thinking of another game....
Hey,
... so this is my first post here in this forum
For me, the sound of a racing game is very very important. If the engine sounds like a hoover, then I can't feel the live of the car. I want to feel the soul of the car... hope you know what I mean
I'm a meber of a rFactor league here in Germany. We had a 24h-Race on the Nordschleife with over 60 teams two weeks ago.
We took the Porsche Carrera Cup '09 Mod for this event.
The Mod was made by people like me and you, without paying them (it's a free version).
So what I want to tell here is, that the sound of a free Mod is much better than the sound of the F430 in GT5 for example.
PD has payed developers. So why they can't make the sounds more realistic? They have the better hardware/software to do this unlike the modders of rFactor.
That makes me sad
Okay stop of flaming
Here is a video where you can her the sound of a Porsche 997 GT3 Cup (the game is from 2007:tup
Trailer
I hope the sounds in GT5 are much better. Anyway I look forward for GT5
Sorry for my bad english, but I hope you understand what i mean

The critical error is with *you* not knowing the difference between a JDM EJ207 (2L) and a USDM/EDM/Other EJ257 (2.5L)!!
The 2.5L GR revs to 6700, or a touch higher with tuning. The JDM 2L mill revs much higher due to the more-optimal bore/stroke configuration and internal components used. Note: The 2L is superior. I own a EJ257 USDM GR and, well I lust for a forged piston 207!

Oh thanks, I feel better knowing it isn't the game then.
But why isn't that 8000 RPM version mentioned on wikipedia?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subaru_Impreza_WRX_STI - look at the bottom where the different versions of the 2011 WRX STI are listed.

I expected a deep sound like how it should sound but it's the same GTPSP sound! My RL 4 cylinder car sounds better than this Veyron ... what a shame
I'm still worried about the Enzo, Murcielago and SuperVeloce
I would have been worried about the SV but as the Gallardo sounds spot on, hopefully the SV should be as well.

Not sure, but trust me the EJ207 has a 8k rev limit, it's fairly easy info to track down, you could even google image search it.
Now the REAL test for me, is what a sports exhaust STi sounds like. It should rumble like a true unequal-length header subie. They have yet to come anywhere close...

OMG, full GT5 got that ugly shriek for F430...
He starts it around 5 minutes 10 s.
Then there's always the Auto Union Type C, or the BRM Type 15 - but those are both high-revving, supercharged and run on a cocktail of alcohols and other nasties...
I'm not a fan of the rFactor sound mods, in general; they tend to sound like YouTube recordings... That particular Porsche has a really annoying transmission wobble at the beginning of the sample, so it does it (the same way) every time you step on the throttle. Of course, that doesn't take away from the talent and effort that went into it, given what these guys had access to. But PD could never do that, unless they were willing to give their game away for nothing.

Real Porsche @ 24hrs of Nurburgring
Hmm, a real Porsche makes that whobble sound too. Look here. At 2 minutes it begins. OMG i love that sound
But okay, everybody has his own taste and the VLN is not the topic here
