Title: Holy shit, Gran Turismo 5 is going to kill me. Post by: cyan on April 20, 2008, 12:38:01 am So I embarked on this ridiculous attempt at being the first person in the world to unlock the most expensive car in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue: the 2007 Ferrari Formula 1 car.
I bought the game on Wednesday, and played from 5pm until 2am that day. Then Thursday from 7pm until 1am , Friday from 5:30pm to 4am, and then today from 1:30pm to 10:30pm. After one corrupt save file that set me back a few hours, some 36 hours or so later I finally got it. Problem is, I played the game for 36 hours in a 3-day period...This can't be healthy. Even the battlefield games didn't take me away from food, sleep and exercise to this extent... So, if that doesn't suffice as a review of the actual game, I'll just say it: 10/10, or: The best racing game ever...and this isn't even the full game. Certainly the best $35 I've spent on PS3, or any game in a while, for that matter. I wasn't the first to get that car, but I was damn close! Here's a couple of pics of the totally rad setup I made for the game: http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n291/blue2gnt/GT4/Picture002.jpg?t=1208663740 http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n291/blue2gnt/GT4/Picture007.jpg?t=1208663753 Title: Re: Holy shit, Gran Turismo 5 is going to kill me.

He was known to do that. Interestingly though, I was in middle school 10 years ago when I pulled this same stunt with GT1. Title: Re: Holy shit, Gran Turismo 5 is going to kill me. Post by: Guru-In-Vegas on April 20, 2008, 03:42:47 pm GT is an excellent racing series and I don't think anyone would ever come close to a driving simulator. As much as I like them, I get bored of racing games FAST.

Surprised your parents didn't take the system away from you for a period of time. If I was your dad, I would've. Title: Re: Holy shit, Gran Turismo 5 is going to kill me.
