Title: Downloaded GTHD for the PS3. Amazing graphics.
Post by: GmanJoe on December 24, 2006, 01:58:26 PM
Same stupid synthesized sound. But I was playing it on a sucky analog TV. It\'s free for download for a limited time. So glad it\'s region free! :D

People are busy wth their usual Christmas goings on. And not many have a PS3. I think it\'s time to post at PS3 forums. :( Ah well....only makes sense. :)

Exactly. No one posts about games much anymore. Now it\'s mostly trolls like Titan that replies useless things at the gaming forum. Are you THAT bored Titan?

if we create a main site we\'ll see more traffic :shy:  Dunno how that\'s going.

What kind of cars did you drive btw?  Regular street cars or was there a variety?

Total of 10 cars. You start off with one and the rest are unlockable. The last one is a Ferrari.

me personally, i\'m waitin\' for god of war 2


going to have to wait a while. God of war 2 is on ps2..god of war 3 is on ps3 but who knows when theyll be done with that if the second one isnt out till february.

GTA does look amazing but i always end up sucking at it and giving up. Except i did play the crap out of the first GTA on PS2 just because it was a huge step up like this will be. Ill probably have one by the second ps3 GTA

From the looks of the HD preview vids on gametrailers.com i\'d agree on the graphics and fluidity ; however ; the crowd still seems frozen in time :confused:

actually the crowd is frozen in time during actual races... but in replays they all run around and move and watch you race around... so its kinda lame on that point but oh well

the graphics are amazing altho im only viewing on 1080i atm

I\'m downloading it right now. It\'s 625MB though, so it should take a while. =\\

*edit: Doesn\'t look too impressive in 720p, but then again, you get tired real quick playing the same crappy looking level over and over again. The crowds look dead and it\'s just...meh. If there were more levels, it would be a better demo. I\'ve only tried Time Trial so far. Pretty boring. And there\'s no music in the background for some reason. =\\ The demo is...ok, I guess.

Ugh thats why its called a demo.

Post by: Phil on January 01, 2007, 04:22:29 PM
A demo is supposed to get the people excited for the game.  If its half assed, they shouldn\'t have released it.  No excuses.

With that said, I don\'t doubt Polyphony\'s ability to produce a highly polished end product.  Although after playing all four in the series, I don\'t think this one will be getting a purchase seeing as they really don\'t/can\'t add much to the game other than tracks and the occasional car.

I\'ll have to rent this one because the demo isn\'t doing anything for me (and I usually enjoy the GT series).

Ahm...this isnt a GT5 demo or a demo of a future full game. This is just a free GT game for everyone to download.

There is no relation between this GT and the full GT game PD will release in the future.

Really? That\'s a relief. And I know it\'s not a demo for GT5. I thought it was a demo for the revamped GT game.

Nope. They initially wanted to release it as a full downloadable but not free GT game if you remember but later decided to abandon the effort and release this one for free and concentrate on GT5 ;)

They did? That\'s also good news. I thought the revamped version was a waste of time.

The graphics are amazing

I\'m most impressed with the detail of the cars.  There is No \'edge\' to the car anywhere.  They are all full rounded perfectly

Most impressive for me was seeing the drivier\'s chest push the seatbelt strap out when you braked...wow

Some anti-aliasing problems but besides that fixable problem graphics are top notch.
