Sounds like it's shaping up to be the definitive racing game of the generation.

well well well, that does look great.
Not that one can't tell the trailer is part CG and retouched replays (as is Prologue intro, for example) but you can tell the final product will look almost as good, which is spectacular.
I'm willing to bet damage is limited to WRC though. Plus, i don't really care about that as much as i do about collision dynamics.
now, i just wish there was a decent wheel to use with this and FM3...

It never was announced. Back in 05 they showed VisionGT, which is what they hoped GT5 would be (lots of cars on track, which they obviously did, they then announced GTHD and after that GT5P. This is the first time they've announced GT5.

What's the point in posting pics of the trailer when it's nothing but CG? I'm so tired of the CG game trailers, BLURG!

That's what I've hated about it in the past. Too damn sterile.

Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
WRC: amazing!
damage simulation for WRC is mandatory. the cosmetics are also a nice touch. now tell me we have some time-of-day simulation and possibly weather for the endurance races there (those le mans 24 shots) and i'll be lining up for a ps3 slim later this year.

That's the thing with GT though, it's not CG.sportzhead said:

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. But they've never shown CG for this game. Even when Sony was showing CG trailers of all their games at E3 05, Polyphony came out and showed high res PS2 GT4 assets for VisionGT. They've taken a lot of heat for showing PS2 assets in many of their trailers simply because they don't want to show CG. They instead show you what they have.

OMG THIS YEAR!!!
Forza 3 looks better to me. More community based, more customizable (at least what we have seen so far), and the driving mechanics > GT's. Plus, their physics and damage modeling looked light years better.
However, we have not seen much GT5, they probably have a ton to show still.
GT5 looks great, but when is it coming out? Also, I am sure people who like WRC/NASCAR are happy, but there are rally/Nascar games I could play if I gave a shit (I don't).
Either way, lots of good stuff for racing fans on it's way. Regardless of what style of racing you like (even Kart games).

There is no CG. You'd think people would learn after Prologue.

Stop it with the that was not CG stuff. I don't know the official term, but that is what every GT5 Prologue video intro has looked like, and we all know that is not what the game looks like when you are actually playing it. GT Pro looks damn good, but come on if you think that trailer was ingame footage.

I was just pissed that T10 would decide to say everything in absolutes without waiting for GT5 to show. I mean, GT portable is going to have more cars, GT5 in terms of cars is going to be crazy. And damage. And graphics. Goddam.

Oh sh--!
Damage was all CG, they haven't got anything ready on that front. Only thing that could make it slightly easier for them is the fact that all of the cars in the game have a majority of their design constructed like in real life i.e. individual chassis components have been modelled separately and bolted together.
Incorporating damage physics on an era of CPU and GPU that are simply not cut out to do it any kind of justice would mean an inevitable graphical downgrade to the level of games that shall not be named.
Disagree, it's what makes it epic compared to everything else. It's exactly the reason why it's so much more successful than anything else in the genre. Unrivalled production values, the car industry standard. It's exactly the reason why I love it.

Have you played Prologue? Part of what they're trying to do is bring the entire spectacle of racing to GT5. That's why you see pit crews out there, something that certainly isn't common in racing games.
Game of the show.
Really surprised by the Nascar and WRC features. Fuck. I'll never need another racing game till GT6 comes out.
I was worried about GT5 for a moment, but so far it's the most impressive racer I've seen from E3. The livery and cinema mode from Forza 3 no longer looks cool.

Glimpses of SLK on Nurburgring. I am going to dream on that tonight. Bliss.

idk, I re-watched the stream and it shows 2 WRC cars at once. I noticed during the sport car segment when all the cars where spinning they where very careful not to hit each other though! :lol
Anyway like I said in the sony conference thread this is awesome, WRC is great, nascar is meh but some people love it. I just wish we heard more about tourist trophy or what ever happened to the motorcycles in GT5.
