So while playing with hotwheels with my daughter, I realized that I hadnt bought the game yet, and then realized, ITS GOTTA BE CHEAP NOW! Does anyone actually play this online? I was always really good on that game, and racing games in general, and thought why not thisll be fun! So Im going to be buying this title soonish. Hows the online part?

I've bought it, was only £10. But i'm rubbish on racing games, I never get the hang of turning, i've even turned all the settings up/down to make it easy and still don't get it right half the time. So i'm not even going to bother playing online, i'll have no chance.....

Don't do it KC. It will do one of two things, you will either be completely consumed by it ,and itll be all you ever think about for a good 6 months. Which is what happened to me with GT4....

OR, you will realise that the nigh on 1 hour it takes too install all the important gubbins from GT5 onto your PS3's HDD just isn't worth it and after 2 hours playing it, think it's just not a patch on GT4.

Which is how I felt.

Patch or no, I love me some GT games. Ive been a fan since #1 dropped. And like I said, Im actually pretty good at racing games. Im OK at shooters, but racing, Im a fething menace
