I'm officially in freak-out mode. Calling stores with the slightest of hopes that someone may have it in stock, going back watching the trailers/videos to see if there's any detail I might have missed.

Fap stage incoming.

I am trying to let this game not overwhelm me (still have to prep cook and bake for thanksgiving when the game comes out). Calling in to grab something early will only drive me up the wall. Its better for me to know that I will actually have it on Wednesday.

@gutterboy44- Thanks!!

Dualshock 3 here!

Though i have a wheel.. i should try it with Prologue some day.
The thing is that i dont have a table, my TV is right in front of my bed.

Anyone here has the french version of the game yet? Are the manuals/cover/game in French or English?


Anyone? :/ Kinda on the fence of Pre-ordering it on Amazon.fr and cancelling the one from .co.uk

Yeah, that's not very practical.


You know, I'd like to get a wheel. But I just couldn't justify it to my girlfriend. She already thinks the whole gaming thing is ridiculous. I'm not pussy whipped or anything. Yet it's hard to explain my hobby to someone who just doesn't understand any of it, let alone setups like the ones on display in this thread.

Oh well, if the controller works as well as with the other game (f-word), I'll be happy.

Playing on a DS3 for now. Don't really have the right permanent setup for my DFGT and G27, so I only bust em out on special occasion.

Great. GT games have always played great on a pad though. I've always preferred the analog face buttons to the triggers, even on GT5P.


Alright, well good. I've always found it a bit difficult to dose the face buttons though.


I wonder when amazon.co.uk is going to start shipping. I've waited long enough.
 
I was supposed to post this earlier but GAF froze @ my house >_>

Lights work! The led are illuminating green then yellow then red to follow the "turn of the motor" (is it the right word in english?)

H shifter works
Paddles works!
Everyone happy the sun shines!

Is it just me, or is this flipped horizontally? WTF?


The ninjas are every where >.>

I have no idea why, I was told it was to avoid Sony or some shit like that, although I haven't worked out how it would work

Yeah, living in the UK is so damn shitty,

Why does no-one ever break the release date, ever!?

I live in the States, Washington State to be exact, and no one here has received their copies yet nor would sell it early if they had :(

ever since gt3, i've been playing racing games with the sticks. works really great for me.

i'll pick up the dfgt eventually, though, when i can find it dirt cheap.

We got ours today (UK), and as I said before I could take it home to give it a play, but nah - no PS3 at the moment.

I wouldnt tell any customers we have it though!

Here's my ghetto setup, this pic was taken like 20 minutes after I got a Logitech Force GT wheel earlier this week, which I had no intentions of getting. I cleaned up the area since then

I guess the good thing is I pay $0 for the setup, and it's actually pretty comfortable. I just use my computer chair for my seat.

Prepare to order a wheel stand pro with some disposable income.

It's actually pretty sturdy, surprisingly. That or I dont notice it at all :lol

I'm so jealous of some of you. I want to drive the Test Track. ;___;

Is the logo on the wheel lit or is that just reflection?
