Maybe it's a "not news" but here in Italy Gamestop and other retailers started to take preorder for Gt Sports and Horizon Zero Dawn.
Amazon too, listing it for December.

Polyphony didn't laser scan the TT course
Big Ben and Isle of Man government did for the official TT Isle of Man - Ride on the Edge game.
Bigben Interactive and Kylotonn have already begun a programme to assess, record and digitally map the iconic 37¾ mile TT Mountain Course, which is run entirely on closed public roads. The TT Races is widely recognised as one of the world’s leading motorsport events and has run on the Isle of Man since 1907.
The quote from the press release is this:
So it may have been them however I don;t think this deal has been in the works from 2014.
Either way, I can't bloody wait! The TT and Road Racing is what I grew up with used to go to all the National Road Races so I am properly excited.
Where is that press release saying it's exclusive though?
http://www.bigben-interactive.co.uk...es-brand-new-isle-of-man-tt-races-video-game/
It doesn't say anything about exclusivity.
http://www.euroinvestor.com/news/20...-new-isle-of-man-tt-races-video-game/13349360Bigben Interactive and the Isle of Man Government Department of Economic Development, the commercial rights holders of the Isle of Man TT Races, has reached an agreement to exclusively produce, under global licence, TT Isle Of Man - Ride on the Edge.
Exclusively producing a TT game and having exclusive use of a track is a very different thing. Not saying the course will be in GT of course.
I'm out of the loop, my fault for not subscibing to this I suppose.
Do we know exactly what GT Sport is yet? If it's priced like a fully featured GT game is that what players will get?

Did it miss the initial beta window yet? Would be so PD to miss that without any kind of announcement since the initial reveal.No idea, nothing has been said since the initial announcement.

I remember a screenshot coming from a private conversation with Facebook pr guy saying it won't be full price, not sure if it was legit though.I'm out of the loop, my fault for not subscibing to this I suppose.

Wait you get to battle Ghost Saville on Circuit de la Sarthe?
Day 1 I guess.
and with project cars being great
What?
It is. Very great.
PS4 has been weird for me.
Every last Sony console I just couldn't wait for the latest gran Turismo
This time, I don't even really care?
Gran Turismo 6 was so terrible, and with project cars being great and assetto corsa on the horizon I haven't felt a void of sim racing
I really hope this is a reboot of sorts that reignites my passion for gt
Less cars, premium models only, tight and focused. It's a game not a digital car museum, cut the fat and focus on the important stuff
I know at the least the graphics will be impressive
The very great pile of shit itself, you mean? Come on, we all know how "well made" it is. Version 10.0, lol.
Oh look another Project Cars hater.
How many times does it have to be explained that the game clearly isn't "shit"? The great irony is that you are talking about version numbers in a GT thread.
Is it well optimized? - No.
Is it well designed? - No.
Is it balanced? - No
Does it play well with a pad? - No, unless you spend hours til you find something that isn't so bad, and yet you'll still have to tweak it afterwards.
Does it have tons of bugs? - Yes.
I still play Project Cars, and when for a miracle the gigantic number of problems it has don't get in your way (which is very, very rare), yes, it feels great. But racing is my favorite genre, and I know when when a game deserves my respect and when it doesn't. I've played betas that felt much more like a finished product than Project Cars.
What annoys me is that it really had the potential to be an amazing game, but it is so problematic that it's frustrating. Every damn time I boot the game I have to deal with some kind of shit. It feels like it is still in alpha state.DD, I like your style, and your posts. You're a regular in the racing game threads that contributes some good stuff, and I respect your opinions.
The funny thing is despite all those things, which I can't really debate, it's still my favorite next gen circuit racing experience. But boy, you're right, it's rough around the edges. As frustrating as it is sometimes, when things work, it truly shines. It still gives me a better motorsport experience than I've played in the past. I can't wait for pCARS 2.
I'm still holding out hope that GT will be great when it finally does arrive, although I haven't been following much of the tidbits of news. I
Is it going to be a ps4.5 game? Will we need to upgrade consoles to get the most out of it? Are regular ps4 games compatible with the 4.5 aka will we need 2 damn consoles to play racing games this gen?

As a backer for PCars..going to have to agree. Such a shame considering some of the guys on the team made GTR2..arguably the best motorsport sim ever.Is it well optimized? - No.

The beta window is specifically for Spring.
SMS are actively assisting modders now.+1
Backer since the first hour of PCars.
Assetto Corsa is better in every aspect except for the graphics imo. What I love about AC is the mod support. Not many games allow that today.
PCars is still a good game on PC, don't know how it is on PS4.

I agree. The biggest problem is that pCARS is undeniably inconsistent in almost all respects. Also, the first couple months after the game released it unequivocally awful. Considering the development time and community testing... that gets forgotten after patch 10. For me the biggest draw back is that there is a clear rift between the handling of race cars (IMO they are great) and road cars (they are awful). Bringing the conversation back to GT, I do feel that this is something GT does pretty well. There is a consistency (maybe at the expense of accuracy) in the way GT games drive.
I'm really hoping they hammer out the issues deep in the coding for pCARS2. From backer's posts thought, sounds like they might be.
Edit- Ha! Yeah, LMP1 have no business on that. Reminds me of the R1 races on Positano. tight Cobblestone turns in Prototypes. Just silly.

Assetto Corsa is the real deal though.
Thanks, I'll keep an eye on it.About assetto: it has some really nice and accurate tracks (like laser-scanned nordschleife, francorchamps, mugello, zandvoort,...) but do not expect the variety of a gran turismo or a pCars, you will play mostly on real racing tracks and nothing else. after all they are a small team compared to polyphony and others.
Still, the content is great and comes at a good pace.
I play only with a xbox pad and imo the support is awesome. I've no problem being fast and precise.
The AI is ok-tier. It does the job but do not expect something incredible.
If you want the most realistic simulation out there and just drive for the sheer pleasure of driving, absolutely go for it. The feel of the many cars is awesome !
As a game tho it's kinda rough, career mode is barebone. It depends on what you are looking for.
Sorry for the off-topic btw

Assetto Corsa is definitely the one sim I want most on the PC side. Just waiting for a nice price.
I'm a casual fan so the online-only or online-mostly offerings on PC don't really appeal to me, like Rfactor or others.
Polish is really important to me in these types of games because of that. If I can't enjoy a light experience within the simulation it's pretty much useless for me.
I think that's why Gran Turismo has such strong appeal. Even though it is a sim, and even maybe "not as good a sim as other games", it has a ton of value for just being so accessible compared to many other games.
For me and I bet a lot of other players accessibility into a sim experience is super important, just my 2 cents.
Assetto Corsa is the new rFactor - it has all the tasty mods that most PC sim racers want. I see 81 cars and 208 tracks and 3,016 liveries on RD. Just like rFactor the range of mods varies from sublime (anyone care for a laser scanned Tor Poznań to utter tripe. Thankfully Race Department has this covered too with a ranking system and download number.Uh... um... have you seen the mods of Assetto Corsa? Including mods I have roughly 150 cars and 100 tracks. Granted, not every one of those mods is of the highest quality but I would say the majority are (Any track done by Tiago Limo, 787B, Miata, Egg 1:One, various F1 cars, etc).
With consoles going iterative I don't think Kaz will ever get his shit together and actually release anything. He's always going to be saying he needs more hardware power and will keep delaying the game for the next console iteration.
Did Kaz do qualifying for Nur24?
GTP says the GTSport decals on the BMW car were removed.

No. The GT Sport decal was still on the right side of the car. There was a picture also of the car in the thread couple of days ago.Did Kaz do qualifying for Nur24?
