Ok so I preordered Gran Turismo 5 and it should be coming in the mail the day of or the day after the in-store release.

I admit I probably will be racing single player for the first day or so but I want some Gamespot users to race with online as well (after all you guys are the best) :D.

If you want to add me my PSN ID is commonfate. Make sure to state you're with Gamespot or I will probable ignore you :P.

P.S I also am fairly active on Bad Company 2. Let me know if you have a mike.

I am deffinately going to get it. I've been waiting for this game since Modnation Racers got all buggy on me :P (last decent race game) I also have quite a bit of friends that will get it as we were planning on getting together on certain days and having big races, fun races. :) Just hit me up once GT5 comes... actually I'm pretty into bc2 also.

I might get it the first day/week depending on my financial situation around that time since other games are coming out as well.

Most likely will get it, but will also plan on getting a steering wheel to make driving easier and more fun.

I've got it pre-ordered. Feel free to add me, I'll probably focus on single-player for a few days just to get used to it, but I'll definitely be wanting to get in on the multiplayer too.

It looks ok, but to me it just looks like any other racing game. I don't get the hype for it at all.

Ok so some of you have responded that you will definitely be playing GT5 and I as well will be delving into single player first. Are your screennames here the same as PSN? Mine is but I don't want to send out a bunch of pointless friend requests. Just let me know and I should add you soon :D

P.S. Thanks for the responses so far. I am a newbie, so to see so many people respond so quickly is very suprising. Gamespot community rocks!

I got a Driving Force GT as a Refurb for $63, the retail is near $199. The GT SE version just so I get the small car and the 300 page book with tips and history and what not. Also using Steering wheel for other race games like F1 2010.

The Logitech Driving Force GT wheel is $132 on Amazon in the US. I've had one for a year and it's awesome. I've used it for several racing games (Need For Speed Shift, Grid, GT5 Prologue), and it works with the PS2 as well.

I'll be getting it. Sure, I'm annoyed that it took them so bloody long to get the game out, and how meager an offering GT5P was, but I'll still buy it and enjoy it.

Oh man, I couldn't agree more - especially with regard to Gran Turismo's singleplayer and lackluster AI. Multiplayer will make things more interesting, but there's still something about the game that makes it feel like a solo venture, where you just admire cars and drive them around a track with no other cars around.

I pre-ordered the special edition. I decided what the heck on the off chance the 300 page racing manual would be worth the read. If anyone remembers Falcon 4.0 for the PC, it was a flight simulator that came with a huge manual to teach flying/dogfighting techniques. I am hoping this manual will be the same. The Gamestop pre-order gets you a tuned up McLaren F1.
