Yes, no matter how you spin it, Polyphony/Sony are milking their customers. This is more than a demo but less than a full game. Its content will be included in the full release in a year. However, no one is forcing you to buy Prologue, so to call it a $100 game is a bit unfair because it's not as if you have to play it to get the full experience. If you love GT and can't wait for GT5 and you get Prologue, then that's fine, just realize that what you spend doesn't count towards the real thing.

A year from now, or whenevea GT5 comes out, no one will even care about the $40. Most of the guys on here are just nitpicking. I would rather pay $40 for a game vs $60 any day. How many people bought 2 and 3 360's instead of sending the 1st or 2nd one back? How many people wasted money of XBLA game, when they already had the game?....Castlevania. How many people have a Wii and download from the VC?

The point that i'm trying to make is that, most people complain about buying a game twice, when everyone does it.

i have NEVER bought the same game twice. plus VC doesnt count seeing as it sells OLD games, not demos for future games

[QUOTE="real45"][QUOTE="EPaul"]*sigh* Polyphony have been releasing Prologues before why is there a huge uproar nowwmc540

40$:shock:

Yeah, and I bought it. It's great so far, it's like people who buy sport games every year- ain't they just the same?

And by that logic you should have not bought GeoW but wait for GeoW2 which will be much better. All I know is that I am enjoying GT5P and if that is bad...well, I'm bad.

I don't pay $40 on a Madden demo.

You don't get the Madden demo only a year early, and how long did you play that demo for? I'm sure I'll be playing Prologue alot longer than that :D

if your using that logic then thats not so good. i have been playing the Skate demo since it came out... and its free. i have gotten more gaming hours out of the skate demo than some retail games.

so if you look at my example, i have been playing this demo for months and months for free, while people pay to play the GT5:p demo

Because now a Prologue cost as much as a full game did before... $40 is a lot to spend for a demo of a game over 1 year away...

"Now, Prologue is better than nothing, but that means we'll end up shelling out $100 for the entire GT5 experience."

that means if you got GT5 ($60) + GT5: Prologue ($40) = $100

very misleading topic title.

How many people bought 2 and 3 360's instead of sending the 1st or 2nd one back? How many people wasted money of XBLA game, when they already had the game?....Castlevania. How many people have a Wii and download from the VC?

The point that i'm trying to make is that, most people complain about buying a game twice, when everyone does it.

ogvampire

i have NEVER bought the same game twice. plus VC doesnt count seeing as it sells OLD games, not demos for future games

I said MOST people. I didnt point the finger at you....... did I?

Why doesnt VC count? Old or new, a game is a game. Right or wrong? If you can play the "demo", then its a game

But you have a choice! is what the cows now say....so much for the attitude that lemmings are pretty much forced to buy all dlc...ect they got a choice now. good for them they get a choice to pay 40 dollars for a demo if they dont wanna wait for another year for a game with 2d static high def gif drops and will cost 100 dollars if they buy the demo first, basically for the same game that gt4 was.

listen here, kid. im a grown man, dont call me any names.

VC doesnt count cause you are assuming that everybody is just buying games they already own. why would they?

most people buy games that they USED to own, meaning that they lost, broke, or sold that game. you know, they are buying a game they dont have anymore.

yeah, it all makes sense. EXCEPT that people will STILL have GTA5p so they ARE buying a game that they currently have in their possessions. dude, just stop grasping at straws, VC is NOT a good excuse for you. the difference in VC titles is that they are at least 7 years old. 7 YEARS!

GTA5p is only 1 year away from its actual game.

lol......4real yo, you need to stop because you are not making any since. And by the way, you are the one who is grasping at straws. VC is a prime example of someone buy the same game twice, no matter how old the game is. Look, just face it, you lost this one, so just move on.

I assume that you are talking about GT5P, but I have no problems with buying it and if you read all of my post on this thread, you see where i said that.

Doesn't make the fact that GT5P is any less enjoyable, quite frankly.

Ok kid, then dont buy it.

Whats the problem? Does it hurt you so much that we are buying this game? Does it make you lose nights the fact that we actually enjoy this? Does it make you curse all the day that fact that we are going to be buying the full game next year, even if we bought this? You dont even know what GT5P has and you think that its only useful to race, thats just wrong mate. We get money, and then we can transfer it to GT5, we are not playing this game from a achievement point of view for nothing. What we do here will be transfered to GT5, so we will be having a headstart also.

If you want to wait, then wait. But dont come back later crying because a new delay arised. Cause we GT vets know that Poly takes a long time to finish GTs.

yeah, 4real yo gangsta playa pimp. whatever :roll:

like i said, i never bought the same game twice. second, of ALL the games on the VC none of them are being made anymore. when gt5 comes out, you can still purchase gt5p (same freakin game). third, i will never pay for a $40 demo. so enjoy getting milked...

lol....like i said before......lil boy.

somebody else can have this kid, i'm done with him.

its been said before, but now i agree. why is it always the ones with the DBZ avatar that are always so blind

lol...you are too funny. you say that i'm blind, but yet, i serve you on every reply. you dont even know the difference buying a game twice vs buying a game that you OWN 7+ years ago.
