I fail to understand how GT series goes from being exciting to being boring. The graphics is amazing and the gameplay is ok but the overall experience is somewhat dull. What is with all these loading times. I bitch now hoping that GT5 will be the refinement of Prologue and not just an addition. How could there be no two player online room or for that matter custom racing room for you and your friends. This is cool.

I hope we get an update with trophies. This update should have custom soundtracks enabled, I mean how hard could it be to implement? Progression is pretty linear otherwsie. Dont want or need that nonsense. But I would like to have custom sound tracks though. Thank You! When is the trophy support for GT5P coming out? Also, you guys have ZERO excuses for not supporting trophies. Please tell me its retroactive! Thanks for the update. Please look into 1v1 races with friends and the like.

Also, trophy and headset support while racing, would make this game more competitive with the competition i. Forza 2. Thanks for continuing the support for this great game. As seen on the included screenshot in this blog, the episode highlighted is only 10min 56 sec long. So when will the Top Gear test track arrive? I think this would make ALOT of people buy the game and it would be for me countless extra hours of gameplay. Screw polyphony.. WTF sony? Are you kidding?

Running the game in real life on a P screen looks nowhere near that smooth… :. Imasaki, the other update-related news are all offering trophies and new tracks. And during this time u added 3 cars? Shame on you for even considering your game to be a sim.

But still no way to play online with my PSN friends without meeting them in the same room by sheer luck? Very cool. Definitely going to jump back into it either today or tomorrow.

Greetings, Taku. First, a little bit about myself. Sadly, this change has frustrated a lot of people. The old camera from GT1-GT3 used to let the car rotate quite a bit before it would start moving laterally, but the camera used in the most recent games is rigidly fixed to the vehicle, which greatly exaggerates its motion.

I personally think this change has completely ruined the third-person perspective because it makes the car almost impossible to catch if a slide starts to occur and they do frequently occur. Polyphony Digital has always been good to their fans so hopefully something can be done before Gran Turismo 5 hits store shelves. Luke, I did receive your letter, and your requests are being heard. Big thanks to being a loyal fan for so long! I was wondering if you guys were ever going to do something with this game besides that pay per view BS.

I guess this means no damage huh? Thanks for the update! Especially considering the campaign mode is a step-by-step process, where it would be a piece of cake to unlock a trophy. Additional trophies could be added when perhaps secret lap times are beaten in perhaps secret events. New cars are good so thanks for that. This new concept car from Citreon is beautiful.

The best looking vehicle in the game, before this, was the Audi, classic image for GT5p, but this new car is just amazing, really really slick and classy.

This may seem like a dumb question, but is there going to be some sort of add-on for people who buy Prologue to upgrade to GT5 instead of having to buy the game twice when that product eventually comes out?

Starting games from the XMB is truely next-gen gaming. Has the online been fixed on this yet? The online was absolutely appalling with cars glitching and jumping all over the place. Made me stop playing the game. Not to mention no friend invites.

For a flagship Playstation title it is a joke. During Time Trial events, speed penalties have been removed, and instead incurring such a penalty will now invalidate the lap time for that particular lap. Race events are also being updated, with tweaked difficulty levels and increased earnings for winning a top spot. Additionally, improved responsiveness when using the wireless controller, and improved sound volume balance for sound effects and music for a better racing experience.

Drift Trial races have been changed to feature a rolling start. Note that this update will require MB of space, in addition to previous update content. The PAL version released in March has been upgraded from the original version adding various features to the core as well as providing new cars and a new circuit.. Additional contents include:. Additional contents include;. On August 1, the 4th update to Gran Turismo 5 Prologue was released. It was considered a major update, consisting of a brand new Gran Turismo TV layout and its official pay-per-view service, various bug fixes and fixes on penalty judgments during online and offline races.

A portion of video on GT-TV still stayed free of charge but some became pay-per-view. New videos were added too. The improvements in downloads speeds feature has not been implemented with the update because the required PlayStation 3 System Software update has not yet been released. The full list of additions and improvements is as follows:. The contents of the update is as follows:. This is the first update for Gran Turismo 5 Prologue to add new cars to the game. On April 4 the series creator, Kazunori Yamauchi, declared " There are still a lot of things we have left un-done in GT5 Prologue, so by fall this year there will be another major update to the game ".

Earlier on March 18, , the North American version producer, Taku Imasaki, already announced planned updates involving online community features would be available after April "Private races with buddies and in-game chat are all in the works… but will not be ready from day one.

Will keep you posted on the progress! I think the major difference between Prologue and GT5 will be the number of cars and courses that will be included within the game, in that there will be many more. During an interview with IGN on July 17, , when asked about the progress on the damage patch, Yamauchi answered, " Our plans haven't changed, and we're working on it.

But this is Gran Turismo, so it might be a little bit late. This was a major update, thus adding further doubts to there being a new update released in the Autumn; seeing as two large updates are rarely released so close to each other.

The Gran Turismo TV feature was introduced in the free playable demo version. The demo was removed from the Japanese PlayStation Store on November 30 and its online functions ended on December 6, however all issued VOD videos were later re-released in the game's retail version through updates, except the SD trailers.

In the meantime five videos released in December have been removed. Also kept were the opening and ending movies, staying free-of-charge.
