I just got my copy of GT5 Prologue after waiting a few weeks for it. I have all the menu translations from GT planet which is cool. Man oh man, if this is a sign of things to come, move over forza, Gran Turismo is back. BTW i got the game and the Dual Shock 3 White controller for about $130 shipped.

None right now just getting the bundle pack that comes with some racing game. I'll pick up GT5 Prologue when it comes out. The only reason why I'm gtting the PS3 right now is because GT5 Prologue is coming out soon.

BTW what are the best games for the PS3?

Ratchet and Clank, Ninja Gaiden are among my faves right now...However, it depends on what genre-type game you prefer as well.

Congrats!

DL the demo for Ninja Gaiden Sigma and see if you like it (or can take it as the game is rather hard right from the get-go)...if yes, BUY IT!

Yeah, try it first...there's also a thread about the game if you do a search in here. Just keep in mind, the game makes no apologies about kicking your @$$ right from the start...

So, if you can take it and have the patience, the game is absolutely one of the most rewarding and fun you'll ever play...

playasia.com, they had a special going on in late december. But you can pick up the game and controller seperately on the site.

So does anyone have this game already? If so, please add me to your PS3 list. My username for GT5 is japan1109 (yes, I use another username for other games).

The G25 works pretty well with GT5, the only problem is the clutch, it's like a on-off button. Hopefully they will fix it soon. But with the clutch now, shifting becomes much faster than before. Graphics wise, I can't comment on it because I don't have a HDTV...but I am happy with it already.

The clutch issue isn't a big problem unless you are cruising around and doing a lot of "stop and go."
