Is there anyone out there who are just going to buy premium cars, or at least focus on buying premium cars first?

Plus, any advice for first timers to the GT series?

Yes, pratice with the liscenses first to get a feel for the cars. you will get to drive quite afew while going threw each one.

 

[gtfan4life]

Get a premium EVO if I can at the start of the game and destroy everything in the first few races then try to get a Samba Bus and modify that and hopefully get far enough to unlock the Lamborghini Miura and make an alpine course with the course maker and have some Matt Monroe playing so I can recreate the Italian Job intro

I'm thinking we may have to pass a liscense or 2 before that.

First, I'm going to pinch myself to make sure this isn't some cruel dream. Then I shall crack open a can of Monster and get down to business.

Smash GT5 bluray with hammer, makes simmilar effect for people, like iPhone smashing

 

[speeedy6]

Hope I can get it at midnight.
Come home, grab some beer and/or whiskey.
Sit down open wrapper, case, and check out the book while I install the game.
Look through the menus.
Race after the alcohol has kicked in.

Haha, nice - playing GT online after a couple is actually quite cool.

me
1. license
2. buy a starter car - mx5 (premium) seems like the only decent starting car
3. spend bout 20 laps on Tsukuba checking the physics out
4. race - earn credits
5. look for 97' civic type r premium
6. spend hours racing and customizing that car:tup:

Dude in game, I like to buy my first car. Test it, which I don't know if it's in the game (top speed, 400m and 1000m). After that I do the license tests, 2-3 to start off with. Get all of those with Gold trophies. Than go back to racing with my 1st car for a little and finish off the next license class (3 or 4). Race till I can buy the Corvette ZR1 because that's one of my favorite cars ever. Before I get it, I'll prolly finish all the Gold in license tests. Hope the prizes are good in this game. I hate throw a-ways. I don't keep cars in my garage if I don't like them, I am very picky.. I am going to nerd out on this game like you won't believe.

GT5 is the end of Facebook for me LOLOLOLOL

 

[McSmith]

play more a-spec until every gold medal is achieved
find out what more there is to do...

[kaido.racer]

try to make a touge track at course maker... is it possible?

 

[autofusion]

It was exactly $64.19 when I pre-ordered GT5 at GameStop the first time, then I canceled it. Months later, I went back and only paid about $49 to pre-order it again. The reason it costed less was because I trade in Batman: Arkham Asylum.

Drive to the bank and withdraw 65 dollars

 

[Rob-F1-Fan]

Put the disc in , then wait millions of hours for it to install
more waiting :'(

 

[DG_Silva]

[JDM-GT5]

Save up and buy every JDM car possible and tune them to perfection to take out onto the Wangan.

 

[dave427r]

- License Tests, try to get at least all silvers
- Do a race here and there to break up the monotony
- Do my traditional search of most ridiculous but surprisingly effective cars to rally

I like finding out what I can put dirt tires on and then trying to "make it work." In GT3 I used the Mustang Cobra R to make alot of money (AI wasn't that clever in that game anyhow). In GT4, I used the Charger 440 alot just for fun but could beat the computer in a ProDrive STI with the AI set as high as possible. In GT5, I hope I can put dirt tires on a Ferrari F40...

 

[MidianGTX]

Man, I feel genuinely sorry for the guys that have to work on release day. I'm currently unemployed which sucks in many ways but next week it'll be a blessing. I know what it's like having to work long hours while your game sits at home though, it makes you itch.

 

[pizzavideogames]

What I had planned to do was to drive from a standing start on the top gear track. Compare my times with the stigs. I'm a huge top gear fan. But I'm not sure we can do standing starts on that track and I don't think that track is available when you get start the game.

I'm still very nervous that we won't be able to drive that track in arcade mode. I don't want to race on it. I just want to do "hot laps" on it. All the times we've seen that track demoed it's been in that challenge mode, not in arcade mode. That track means a lot to me.

 

[r1ryder420]

Kiss school, work and pu**y (well maybe not pu**y) goodbye

 

[tezster]

I wasn't able to book the week of the release off, but booked the entire week after off work. So playing GT5 will be my 'job' for that week! First thing I'll do check the options for tweaking my DFGT wheel setup, then see what cars get imported from GT5, then start working my way through the license tests.

 

[SS97]

After reading how a lot of people have work or school next Wednesday, I am so thankful I have that day off from school.

 

[eSZee]

WooHoo!!!!!!!! I just found out that when GT5 is released, I'll be sitting on my ass at IMAX watching Harry freaking Potter! WTF! What's the point when I haven't seen the previous 23 movies? Motherflower!

 

[juwlzx5]

I'm gonna wake up thinking that the release of GT5 is a dream...a really good one that is.

Are you a harry potter fan?

 

[eSZee]

Are you a harry potter fan?

Hahahaha. I guess on the 24th I will be. Hopefully I can sneak in an hour or two of GT5 before I have to get to the theater. I'm gonna be one pissed on warlock magician wand fan thing.
