PeeWee Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 apparently the reason the 3 days has turned into 'tba' is down to the fact the latest firmware for ps3 has been cracked so gt5 needs new copy protection. Had the discs been made already then this wouldn't have been a problem The amount of uploaded PS3 games is incredible over the last few weeks. Not sure how adding copy protection to the disc combats the firmware crack though, surely a firmware update is needed not a new disc protection modification?

Might be, Could be a specific file must be read before the game can be loaded and that it's encrypted. That encrytion key would be stored in the new firmware. Could even be large chunks of the game, ability to save the game etc need to be unlocked by coding in the firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andaba Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Bought myself a wheel the other day, now that the release is "imminent". It's got a clutch, 6 speed gearstick + reverse, and advanced force feedback with ABS effects! I can't wait for it to arrive! http://993c4s.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/fanatec-porsche911-wheel-pedals-shifter.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig855S Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 I got a DFGT for prologue over a year ago, although i dont have anything suitable to mount it on. I need to build an stand, and soon. I was crap with it on prologue as soon as the car began to oversteer. But im hoping with GT5 as ill start with crap cars and work up ill get used to how to control slides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andaba Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I love my old Driving Force Pro (nearly the same as DFGT), but wanted to go to the next step with the clutch and gears. The Logitech wheels are great value for money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuey650 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 How much did that steering wheel sting you? Can you put the gear stick to the left?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andaba Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Wheel was around £150. You can get a Driving Force GT For Half that at Argos at the moment >> Here << Don't know about the left/right yet - would assume not. Doesn't bother me that much though. Wheel was around £150.

andaba Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Ahhhhh yeah http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs904.snc4/71714_10150302293095574_621605573_15604327_1824398_n.jpg It's superb. Driving my Integra round Suzuka on GT5P is awesome - proper clutch in, off throttle, change gear, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
