New Ferrari looks sweet, disturbing that they are adding cars (what happened to damage model!) when i would muich prefer them to release the proper Gran Turismo

Nah, I'd be happy if they release more cars and tracks for Prologue. Later when there's enough cars they can then release a "GT Mode" option via DLC or something.
Honestly I hope they go down the Criterion method of releasing massive content updates for free!

They made these cars anyway, it's partly to do with the Paris auto show ...

Hopefully they'll release a new track sometime soon though, we really (well I certainly do) need a new track. If that won't happen, then it won't be able to compete with LittleBigPlanet for a long time yet for me (but then what can ;) ).

Excellent move by Polyphony and Sony. Criterion Studios have definitely raised the bar with free DLC.

I'm sure I had read that more tracks for Prologue had been confirmed. Correct?

If so, £1.99 a track and I'm in.

If you take a look at the recent promo video of the Ferrari California, you will see the Nürburgring in full glory. It seems the full nordscheife is ready for GT5.
Private races ?

According to GT5P site, today's update is just the start to the full Spec III version. I'm sure there will be new tracks but the promised damage modeling which isn't that important in my book (just give me a good penalty system) might have to wait till the full GT5 although with Polyphony Digital, nothing is predictable.

A fix for the tearing (particularly on the London track) and the slowdown would be preferable to extra content IMO. I like GT5 Prologue but it doesn't feel as polished as the earlier PS2 games. Still I guess this is really a work-in-progress not a finished game, right?

I've hardly played it. Found it extremely dull after doing a 100% of GT4. That and the inability to play friends online has made it pretty much worthless in my book. That was something that was possible on the original Xbox FFS.

am glad with this updat, finally PD have adressed an issue i've had with GT for year, in time attack u could cut corners and still get away with it, and the engine restriction for a few seconds wasn't the answe, good on ya PF, and ohhhh the "GTbyCitroen" is a cool looking concept car, actuall designed by the PD guys.

Every time they release an update i get my hopes up. Lets hope this one makes it more like a racing game. I still think they have a long way to go to catch up with Forza for me. Iam just glad that Wipeout HD is decent.

new cars are great. also the money awards are now higher. but i've noticed a major new glitch in arcade time trial mode - the framerate is really jerky. absolutely fine in race mode, which doesn't seem to make sense considering all the extra cars. i've tried time-trial with different cars on both the High Speed Ring and the Alps track, everytime it suffered constant frame-rate problems.
i'm guessing there will be another patch very shortly.....

I would trade these free cars in for proper support for he Logitech G25's clutch. I'm sick of having to press triangle at the beginning of every race and then having no idea whether or not it has worked (because, occasionally, it doesn't) unless I press the clutch and gas simultaneously. Why can't they include a menu setting for this?
