I think it's obvious that I didn't read that while I was typing. Yes. I assumed that it was in PAL format, and I was wrong. But would you stop freaking out? It's just a game.

I agree. The cars (with the exception of a small few) have never sounded accurate. The NFS Series does a better job of making the cars sound like they are supposed to.

Is this a download of the game or a shipped DVD?

I have had a Japanese account since day 1, the problem I have now confirmed by experiment that a traditional Credit Card is no good for use one either the UK PSN or the Japanese PSN - pity, there are some interesting bits to buy hehe
Anyway, I had to treat myself to an earlt Christmas gift.. I have a copy of GT5 rologue Japanese Edition being Fedexed
I understand the game will be here in the US in "early" 2008 - whatever that means, I guess it cold be in January or May hehe.

I really hope Polyphony makes a good one with GT5, I wont complain with the graphics, or the interior view, but please!! fix the AI, fix those engine noises a.k.a (vacuum cleaner engines), and get Lamborghini and Porsche for gods sake, they want to make a car encyclopedia without two of the most important car makers in the world, its like an encyclopedia that doesnt mention the roman empire or the egyptians.....

I couldn't agree more. I am a huge fan of all the Gran Turismos, but god damnit, we are not on PS One anymore! I swear they are using the same piece of shit engine, tire squeak, kerb bouncing, and wind noise sound effects as in GT2 or maybe even the first GT! They sounded great in PS One days, but FFS, we are on the PS3 now. Same goes for the brain-dead AI. I hope they finally put some fucking tire marks in this one too. That has always bugged me about Gran Turismo, I like to see evidence of my donuts/burnouts painted on the track in rubber. Thank & Praise the lord that they have finally added in-car views. I don't care that much about damage, but COME on Polyphony, pull through with some kick-ass engine noises for GT5.

Agreed. I've played all the GT series up until the demo and can't wait to try out Prologue. However, the physics have always been a glaring flaw. For a while I had fun "tuning" for 1/4 mile and top speed runs. The magical gear ratio "cheating" can be forgiven. However, if you go to a lower (as opposed to taller - no I have no confusion about how gear ratios work) final drive ratio and the car is not topping out before the end of the quarter mile, it has no business getting significantly slower. Likewise, switching to 2.5 somethings in the rear of an otherwise stock '64 GTO should not make it faster! Who coded that?!?!?!
The GT series saving grace is its good graphics and sheer number of cars since driving them isn't all that fun in the game. I hope the greater level of detail doesn't prevent GT5 from showcasing a massive number of cars.
Until then though, I'll be enjoying my new 360 with Forza 2 (limited edition).
