Nosing around in the credits page, no sight of Lotus or Bentley, but the music list is quite extensive at least 115 individual songs in there. Why mention cars that aren't in the game under the licensing a whole lot of Lamborghini's are listed and none of them are in the game, the one's in the game aren't even listed. Did catch Aryton Senna institute in the licenses too, so perhaps there will be something on that end later on in the games' life.

Folks please read, the demo is in early access for PS+ subs, the main body of users get it the day of that is the only difference. Whinging before knowing the details isn't helping anyone especially yourself. Just ask if you aren't sure, someone will find out the details, nothing wrong with relying on the community to get answers if you by yourself aren't sure of or know. Just take it slowly and get all the info first, I mentioned it earlier in the thread that the gold usually represent PS+ exclusive. The demo does not require PS+ to access, only pre-load benefits from having PS+ that's it and we get to start laying a few hours before everyone else. I mean it's pay for the privilege that's all, the demo will be available to all on the 9th.
 
Are you serious? What?
Wasn't it said that you didn't need it to play online in the demo?

You can pre DL the Demo today without PS+ but youll have to wait until later tonight. The Demo wont actually go live until the afternoon/evening of the 9th for NON + members, and 12:01 AM for + Members.

Where in the ps store is it? The GT Sport page?
I found it in the store under Games/Demos i believe i seen it in the PS + tab also

You can download it day 9 without PS+.
Somebody know if this demo download will be a part of the final game download ?? Or will we have to download it all again ??
I don't think this is right i believe you can DL it today if you're not a + member your just gonna have to wait until tonight.

I started the game and in the beginning the demo doesn't recognise my TV's HDR. Has anyone else tried, if the demo recognise the HDR?
Yes, the first thing it did was ask me to select if I wanted to use HDR and then it goes into a basic calibration screen to set the optimal peak brightness. Do you have other games that use HDR and work? I don’t know about your TV, but on mine I had to specifically enable HDR on each capable input first.

Yes, the HDR work with the other games. In this demo it is gray, so I can't choose it. Normally the HDR is automatically on. My TV is Samsung UE40KU6072

You'll have to check your TV's documentation, PS4 and PS4 Pro support 10 bit HDR output, not sure if it supports anything else. Check your cables to be sure they are full bandwidth HDMI, ensure that you are plugged into a 2.0 HDMI port for the PS4 as well. All those things are a go, then only thing is to check to be certain your TV is compatible with PS4's HDR10 standard. The age of your TV can also be an issue, older HDR TV sometimes only had one HDMI 2.0 port.
 
I don't have PS+ and started the download at midnight.

I'll buy PS+ tomorrow so I can start playing the demo at 12:00 on Monday instead of waiting until 16:00.

My mistake. The HDR+ has dropped off from the TV menu.

EDIT: As an HDR noob I find this video helpful. So I change the HDR+ to Game Mode and did other setup also. Much better!

Well, I,m back from a trip out and it’s up and running on my new OLED TV at 4K HDR and well, just looking at those scapes my jaw kept on hitting the floor time after time...absolutely insane. I know the scapes are not wholly reflective of the in-game racing, but at glacé they are achingly realistic. I could sit and watch those all day. Pure car porn, and that’s what GT is all about. Now the replays...oh the replays! Great ambient music too, what a lovely package so far.

How many replays can be saved? Please say it's "virtually unlimited"!!

Probably a lot, since replay files are just instructions for the game engine and not actual video files, and as such they have a small filesize. I guess it will be similar to GT5 and GT6 in that regard.

I’ve no idea as these are pre-baked into the demo when it’s left on and not my own. However, like others is have thought as many as your storage can handle as these will be game instructions not video files as such.
 
I'm in a bar now waiting for herself to arrive and I'm thinking about being at home hoping to see the Toyota TS050-HYBRID in the demo videos.

What the hell is going on with me?!

Same here man.
Standing in line at Starbucks so my wife can get her triple venti vanilla extra shot creamy smoothie latte thingy.
I'd really like to be home right now so I can start the download.
 
Just downloaded my trial and I received the Mustang Gr. B Rally Car.

Anyone having trouble adjusting display area? It says where to go to adjust it but I can't seem to find it.

You have to go into the Sound and Screen Settings of your Playstation 4 and adjust it under Display Area Settings.

You get a car when you start the demo.
Yes I have already DL the demo and I have already pre-ordered. Only 1 car.
You only get one car when you start the demo.

You'll get whatever your pre-order gifts are when you start the game. This isn't the game. This is the demo and you get one car and one car only when you start the demo.

And please stop double-posting.

It's just a random car then? I see people posting they got a different one than mine.
