    I cant wait for GT5, but thanks to the laws of space and time I have to wait. In the wake of E3 I find myself thinking about GT5 more than usual. Probably cause it now has an official release date. I have been playing many racing games in attempt to kill time until GT5 drops. I S-Ranked Forza 3 not too long ago. I bought a whole load of other racing games. None of them really grabbed me like I hoped.  

    • Trackmania United
    Trackmania is really fun, But I am a little late to the party. I mostly am now excited for TrackMania 2 which probably wont be out until after GT5.
    • Test Drive Unlimited
    Again a bit old, kinda directionless and old. But again I see a fun game in TDU2. 
    • GRID
    • Dirt 2
    • FUEL
    And I will just lump the codemasters games together. I am a huge Colin McRae Rally fan. Loved those games. I really wish codemasters would make another. But instead we get stuck with games like GRID and Dirt 2 which try to give so many different experiences but don't really flesh any of them out beyond a rough outline.  And FUEL is just ok. its kind of like Burnout Paradise but with more trees and less fun. 
     
    Still looking for a good racing experience. Maybe I should start a new game in Gran Turismo 3 or 4 but I have beaten those games so many times that I would probably guilt myself into not playing anymore after a few hours.  
     
    Oh and 4 months and one week until GT5 drops.

    Four months... I feel a little sorry for you; that's a long time to wait. I'll probably get excited one week out and then I won't even bother to pick it up until two months later. But I am happy about the recent announcements - something about a track editor? Could be cool when it's in a real simulation game.

    honestly I think getting the S-rank in Forza 3 was a huge mistake.

    35 days. This Holiday season will be chock full of gaming goodness. GT5 is near the top of my list(behind Black Ops but ahead of Assassin's Creed, Fallout Vegas, MOH, Force Unleashed 2 )  and I'm just worried I won't have enough time for them all. I wish my racing could've been satisfied with Forza 3 but I refused to buy it because it won't let you map your own buttons and the presets were shite.
     
    Hey if you're looking for a racing fix, there's F1 2010[out now], Ferrari Race Experience[tomorrow] and also WRC: FIA World Rally Championship that appears to be coming Oct 8.

    @Sander: Been playing F1, I like it though its a bit dry for someone who doesn't care about F1. That Ferrari game might be ok, those guy have made shit in the past but they are devloping the WRC game which looks amazing. also SBK X looks ok eventhough SBK 09 sucked.

    Out of a poll of one trillion parallel dimensions GT5 was a disappointment one time, The reason being listed as "Did not feature enough wooly mammoths". 
     
    That dimension was the "Still in the Ice age dimension".

    The only reason I wanted GT5 to come out was to see Johnny V get pwned. 
     
    It's a shame Microsoft had to go and put out Forza 3, you would prolly have been playing GT5 this time last year if they hadn't.

    Don't think Forza had any effect. Kaz has been delaying GT games since before Forza existed.

    Don't get me wrong, i'm really looking forward to GT5; but you have to agree with a development cycle soo long, it must be a pretty epic game not to disappoint. Fingers crossed for GT5 being epic!

    no it definitely did. the whole point of GT5 is that it is a step above the competition. If Forza 3 had taken another 2 years to come out, then the competition would be Forza 2 and the bar would be much lower. 
     
    P.S. Peter Molyneux doesn't delay games like Kas, he just talks up games that aren't actually that good.

    You missed my point. So many times has Kaz made crazy promises about love. GT4 was supposed to have motorcycles in it.

    We are on day 2,034 guys.  Almost there!  You'd think with how perfect that bitch Yamauchi wants this game to be, he would have remembered you need blu ray discs to print the game on.

    That video had the opposite effect on me, I am officially re-hyped! They couldn't even fit all the features in that video. For me the content alone is worth the price of admission.
