Someone who knows japanese could translate a couple of tweets that I'd like to send to Yamauchi?

One would be this:

"Are you still considering the use of a blackframe for standard cars in GT PSP as you mentioned in the interview with Honda?"

And the other would be this:

"Something like this would be better than nothing: http://i30.tinypic.com/2dcisck.jpg "

If anyone could translate or send it directly in japanese I would be very grateful :D .


That looks pretty good, I could live with it.

Such a interior view is better then using the boring bumper cam the whole day.
 
Why they dont cutt off one or two interiors from premium cars and put them into standard ?? Mayby interior from mitsubishi evo x and bmw??

Regardless from the fact it won't be very real and look hideous on most cars, do you really think a manufacturer other than BMW and Mitsubishi would allow their cars to have those interiors or vice versa that BMW and Mitsubishi would allow their interiors to be used on the other cars?
Not me........
 
But mayby they can change them littlebit or make two standard interiors insteed of that black thing and use them in all standard cars?? 💡

They're not basing a generic interior ( which is what it basically is what you suggest ) on an existing cars interior for the reasons I gave in my previous post.
They could make 1 or 2 generic interiors ( not based on an actual real car but a design of their own ) I suppose but in my opinion this is a pointless exercise because it still isn't very real ( it would look very odd on most cars ) and I know that a lot of people here apparantly prefer it to no interior view at all but to me an interior of a car is just as specific as an exterior.
Imagine some cars having the same generic exterior with different badges, nobody wants that and everyone would cry outrage.
I'd go for a specific interior or nothing at all, but this is just my opinion ( and the most likely scenario too I think as I can't see PD going for generic dashboards as well ) but we're going too far off topic as there are other threads devoted to this topic.:)
 
Kaz has tweeted that over 5,000 entries for the E3 song have been received. And over 500,000 people has listened to it. Also, over 100 comments about the song have been received. And he says a cheer can go out. :P
 
He says that while they were trying to photograph the Top Gear track for GT, the BBC wouldn't let them at first because they're public broadcasting. and then something about the "performer being severe" but it being proper judgement.
 
If Google translater is any good, than it also seems that he is taking his first holiday since he was a teenager. It is about time. :)

Launch end of the recording relaxed Indian restaurant in Madison. Lang Lang is a vacation starting tomorrow for the first time. The first holiday in 27 years. Given the beginning of his career a little early but I also think, tried enough. I hope the start of the new history.

レコーディングが終わりリラックスした打ち上げはマディソン街のインディアン・レストランで。ランランは生まれて初めてのバケーションが明日から始まるという。27歳にして最初の休日。ちょっと早い気もするけど彼のキャリアの始まりを考えれば、もう十分にがんばった。新しい歴史が始まるといい。
 
Why ask him about slipstream when the GTAcademy demo's had the option to adjust slipstream to more realisitc implementation for Hardcore gamers .
 
Because that doesn't mean it would necessarily be adjustable in the finished product. Or realistic for that matter.

Can't hurt you, can it?

No not at all I only wanted to say that it has been done before thinking you might have not heard about it ,but I still haven't met the super hero who managed to get a responce after tweeting to Kaz :lol:
 
Could someone please ask about sounds?....

This brings up a good point. The trailers that have been shown (E3 '10/Toyota FT-86) have dubbed engine sounds and tire screetching to my knowledge, so that must mean they are aware of the sound issue or they wouldn't overlay fake sounds for the trailers. I would be curious to hear a response by PD.

According to Kaz's latest tweet, he had dinner with the Chairman of Pebble Beach and his wife who will be judges (along with Kaz, I assume) at the Toyko Concours d'Elegance. There's a gala in the "evening" at 9 in the morning and then he says that his real job is to not fall victim to heat stroke.

They always dub the sound over on the trailers. Its been like that with all the GT trailers.
 
Kaz's Twitter Translated

Most recent tweets include talk of a Ferrari 365GTB\4 Daytona being done in just 10 weeks(most probably a Pebble Beach tweet) , and a mention of the Top Gear Track "performers" (jeremy, capn slow, and short stuff presumably.) Damn google translate.

If they do model the Daytona, the Miura might be in, nothing is better than old italian rivalry. Fingers crossed.
