Who's Planning On Picking Up Gran Tourismo 5? - torradan - 04-04-2008
So, who is having the GT5 par-tay? I don't have a PS3 and don't see myself having one in the near future (getting wife's approval for the DS was hard enough as it was!).

I just want the wheel / pedals / gearshift - that's SICK!
I'll be projecting onto this @ 1080i till I upgrade the projector to one that's 1080p capable. I've also been considering moving to a large LCD as I'll likely be selling the house in a few months ;)

I still have GT3 and a Logitech Force Feedback Pro wheel I don't use. So I don't think I will be picking this up. Also still using my PS2.
Guitar Hero 3 rocks!!!

So, anywhere from $550 to $650.

Also, the seat, according to their website, + the mount for the shifter, is like 440 Euros. Where can you get it for $300? (440 Euros = $700 CAD)

It can be shipped from Ontario ;)
As for the G25, the lowest I found is 190$Cnd + tax + shipping = 250.
Future Shop has it for $299!!!
I just wonder if the Driving Force Gt is better though?!? It was made for GT5!
The only down side is no 6-speed/clutch :(

Guess I bought mine at the right time. Even Canada Computers is selling the G25 for $235. I got mine a bit before Christmas.
Oh wow, those are much better prices than I saw, I guess it was the VAT in the UK or something that made it so much.

The g25 is supposed to be compatible...
and if you walked in to futureshop with the lower price, you can save more with their price difference guarantee.

My G25 works with the demos that are out. ForceFeedback even. Though it's really light.
It's also smart enough to know when you switch between sequential and 6-speed, though I could not get into reverse when in sequential mode.
