Holy shit, Gran Turismo 5 is going to kill me.

[cyan]

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:

You sound like a kid in middle school....... or Jason from the Fox Trot comic strip.  He was known to do that.

Interestingly though, I was in middle school 10 years ago when I pulled this same stunt with GT1.

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.

I got awesome grades. Plus, why take away something that actually teaches driving skills?

You just said it yourself..... staying up all night playing video games can't be healthy.

GT5 is not a significant source of Vitamin B12.
