G25 + Obutto cockpit + 100" screen and FullHD projector.

Well, haven't got the obutto yet, but should have it by the release date :) Can't wait though...
 
Anyone able to give me the length of the G27 base of the pedals?

I can give you the length of something else, but you're not going to be too happy about it.

You might have better luck asking here... https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=163

What happened to the 'Car List' by that guy, The227 or was it The90210 or something?

Oh, 1080p Sony 46" HDTV set with Onkyo 805 7.1 surround.
 
Thanks Solid... I could go through every thread on each of the 16 pages and most probably have the exact answer I was after...

but you knew that... lol
 
Oh... I'm playing as such

PS3 320 GB
Sony VPL-ES2 Projector
106" Ceiling mounted screen with remote
Logitech G27
+ cockpit
 
PS3 Slim 320GB with Move sensor, G27 Racing Wheel (with a custom seat), LG 47'' LED FullHD TV, Sony 5.1 Home Cinema.
 
PS3 slim 120gb (bought it because this game was supposed to come out on february, then got delayed to nov.2, now they offer 160GB for the same price :ouch:) logitech g27 on a playseat (mods to come) ,my 55" samsung 3D tv and dolby surround sound..
 
What are the chances GT5 won't fully support the G25/G27? I mean, even GT5P didn't work properly with the G27.

In one of the interviews held at the PD HQ, there was a scene where Kaz played GT5 on a DFGT, but there also was a box of G27 in the background.

They do work with logitech in the wheel department, G25 adn G27 will most likely work perfectly with GT5

i hope it does work perfectly with all the buttons on the wheel on the g27 because with GT5P it only works for looking back! lol
 
I will play GT5 with the items in my signature.

I´ve been slowly gathering since the last 3 years:
- 2006: nothing ...
- 2007: Buttkicker Gamer (for office chair)
- 2008: PS3, Logitech G25, Logitech Z5500 5.1 sound, 40" 1920x1080p Samsung LCD TV (when I used to play GT5P in a desk), but then replaced with the Epson 1080UB Projector + Playseat Evolution Gaming Seat (perfect pair)
- 2009: Yamaha RX-V1900 7.1 AV Receiver, KEF iQ6c iQ9 iQ3 speaker pairs, Buttkicker Home Theatre (for couch)
- 2010: Emotiva XPA-3 Power Amp, Monitor Audio RSW12 Subwoofer, KEF XQ40 Speaker pair, Sennheiser HD380 Pro Headphones (for late night gaming), Aura Pro Bass Shakers

It´s funny, but because GT5 took so long to be released, that allowed me to assemble this nice setup to actually play it properly.

Now if only Epson and Panasonic managed to release affordable (sub $3000) Full HD 3D projectors these year...
Only ones announced so far are the JVC and Sony, in the range of $8000. No way.

G25 on a small table
52" Sharp Aquos
Yamaha RX-V661 7.1-Channel Receiver
7.1 speaker setup
all hooked up via HDMI

Looks and sounds awesome, couldn't ask for more for GT5. Well, maybe a cockpit.. someday.

Totally awesome!
So If my old 320i fail the annual safety inspection, which is coming up in - oh - five days now it can still serve a purpose?
 
Sorry if I'm off topic but I need to know something.....

One friend has a G25, almost new (he must have played just 30 hours)
He is going to sell it and I'm interested

Is G25 full compatible with GT5?

The gear pad, behind the steering wheel, works fine?

Or I need to use the 6-gear shifter?

On the other hand, I can buy a brand new Logitech Driving Force GT Wheel and pay 30€ less than the GT5!!

I don't care about 30€.
I just need to know with one will be full compatible with GT5


Thanks in advance :)
 
@Ksino: Man,Go immediately for the Logitech G25 !with the G27 it's the best wheel for playing and enjoying GT5:tup:
 
Back when the GT5P demo hit the Japanese Playstation Store, I was thinking SDTV and Sixaxis.

Now I'll be playing with a HDTV and a DFGT. :)
 
37" Samsung HDTV full 1080p.
Fanatec Porsche Carrera wheel
?????? Cockpit, but I'm gonna get one
......and maybe a new PS3 if I can't convince my bro to move the one from our room.
 
Most likely a 55" Toshiba LED with a decent 2.1 setup. Gonna stick with the DualShock3, although I wish I had a decent place to put a G27 wheel.
