Wow, after billions of time pushing back the lauch date it finally comes out. They pushed it back so many times I lost my excitment of getting this game. I stopped keeping track of it and didn't know it came out till a week later. I'll eventually get it, but I can wait a bit longer. FYI, if you have a Costco card...it's 5 dollars cheaper there ($54.99). I bought 2 copies for Christmas presents.

actually hold on, i got a question about the licenses. are they pretty much useless?

i mean im already on expert races and i only have a A and B license, thats it.

wasnt it in the older GT games the licenses allowed you to race in the higher level races?

seems like its not the case here. unless in extreme it requires an S license, but

I think so, and I'm glad.

I would rather not spend time learning a series of turns of a fake track that I hate.

Jeez this game is tedious. I'm over it already after clocking 2.5 hours last night. My thumbs are sore and my B-spec driver is a f-cktard. Who has a hundred hours to invest in this game?

I always do the color matched hood, unless I accidentally choose the wrong hood which I've done twice.

I'm up to lvl26 bspec and you start getting some serious points after that. I got 120000+ points for that Miata race. Of course it took 4 hours!

You can't unselct the part in the tuning options?

It's like how you can go back to the stock intake and exhaust after you install the newer ones.

if I'm reading this right, I think it means I'll be able to setup and control b-spec while I'm at work, away from my PS3???

that would rock so hard!

You can just buy the body colored carbon fiber hood and it'll replace any you have on now. Only difference is that now you'll have hood pins on your car.
