    Exclamation Gran Turismo 5 updates to v2.0

    Sony of course times big GT5 v2.0 update to match the launch date for Forza 4 by Microsoft



    Finally with v2.0 released GT5 feels more complete, adding in details, options, views that shoud have been there from day 1 when GT5 first got released!

    Microsoft is busy selling Forza 4, already #1 in today's sales, and PS3 owners are busy sitting online download the largest update ever released for a game, this one being GT5, at the same time stores are marking down the price of GT5 to $39.99 in honor of the big update, and Sony is bragging that the update is of course free, while at the same time showing off a bunch of new DLC (like race, paints, cars) that of course you have to BUY!

    If you have been keeping up with GT5, you know Polyphony Digital has been very diligent about releasing free updates to improve the game, especially the online racing mode. Ever since the launch, Kazunori Yamauchi and his team have been carefully studying posts on forums, reading comments on PlayStation.Blog posts and across Twitter, talking to fans at events, and more. The game has evolved a lot since last November, thanks in part to the dedicated GT fans voicing their opinions.

    Now I’m here to share with you some very exciting news about the biggest FREE update yet, releasing in the next few weeks. It will add new features and even more functionality to your GT5 experience.

    Polyphony learned that a lot of fans out there love driving using the game’s interior view, and has given some serious thought to it. With this new update, all cars in the game will now have interior views. Although the level of visual details will vary based on what car you choose, you can now race from behind the wheel of any car in the game. In addition, you’ll be able to get the 2011 season versions of the 11 NASCAR race cars for the first time.

    Some of the other improvements introduced are greatly reduced load times when loading races, quicker menu response times, and adjustable opponent AI in Arcade Mode. Players will now have the option to save their progress during lengthy racing events so they can come back and finish at a later time, and can also adjust weather conditions for races using a slider function that goes from mild to severe.
    Most of these should be included in the original release, but I guess doing so would have delay'ed the game even more until this year. -- All tho I getting worried as they keep using the word FREE update, does that mean they MIGHT charge for updates in the future! -- Oh'well, I still d/l'ing my GT5 update, I got slow 'net here!

    Bioshock Infinite is rated as maybe the best game this generation. Irrational Games really deserved this.

    Try going into "recovery menu", and selecting "rebuild database" -- That normally helps after large updates.
