    NASCAR on Gran Tourismo 5, eh? Tell me, will I be able to drive a Hudson Hornet or Chrysler C300 on the old beach circuit at Daytona? Also, if I choose the Hudson, does it include a monkey mascot/navigator option? My inner Tim Flock wants to know...

    A PS3 purchase may be on my horizon- ONLY for GT5. Perhaps I can get a used one at bargain basement prices.

    @Ben Wojdyla: seriously, been waiting for a long time for that.


    I remember Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit on PS1 having damage modeling. It was pretty good as I remember it, and it certainly made you drive differently knowing that you couldn't actually use the guy ahead of you as a cushion for the next corner, and that should you not line up to go through a tunnel or bridge properly at 150mph+, you will not be finishing that race.


    should be very interesting.


    I do remember having some huge problems with GT4 after a certain point. Namely, finding out that the X button on the PS2 didn't provide the kind of 'granularity' in throttle control needed to properly drive a 700hp, rear wheel drive Ford GT.

    @ThreeLitre: Totally agree. This will undoubtably change the game completely for me. I used to dominate on GT3 by just grabbing the Escudo and ramming everyone else off the track. The car never turned, but it ran like a cat that was being raped by its own burning tail in a straight line. So I would just dive straight into each corner, winning races to make money for more interesting cars. Because of that I was never really impressed by Gran Turismo...


    Until I heard GT5 was going to have actual damage modeling, I was about to abandon the PS3 in favor of Forza.

    I just received Rock Band for my birthday, and I'll be buying a steering wheel/pedals for this. My house is slowly filling up with plastic crap.

    @SirNotAppearing: After you get used to the wheel and pedals, you will never want to go back. The only down side is that it's difficult to have the wheel and it not be noticeable when people come over.

    @B1663R: I'm fully willing to give my house over to plastic once I have kids. In fact, I saved all my old legos for just such an event. It's just funny to me when my wife is trying to make our house look like a catalog picture and I am filling it up with toys.

    In other news, I am starting to work on convincing my wife it's time I upgrade to a PS3. She want's a Wii, which is fun, too. So, I figure if she can get a Wii I can get a PS3.

    And since Sony pimped this out for clients instead of friends, they can write it off as a business expense.

    @roberto_145: Ghostbusters with the 40-Year-Old Virgin cast (as it says here: [www.imdb.com]) would be unbelievable, and in fact so unbelievable that it seems likely never to be.
