Just bought my C5Z(on the game).. the wife would kill me, if I get another car!!! lol

I have to admit, they didnt give it the power, feel, or sound, that I was was expecting to get out of it.. But still its awesome, and even if I do need slicks to keep it from doing donuts all race... its fun..

The game is alittle nissan heavy... as in they seem to favor them ALOT..

those are my only real gripes.. I would complain about the load times, but its already been said.

Lol

Yeah the little Nissan MMR race car (136hp) Im using to win the small cicuits is fast as hell. lol. Just gonna wait till level 12 and hopefully the ZR1 will perform more like the real car. I thought the sound wasnt as great but when I heard it on a friends home theater system I changed my mind! I need some better speakers.

I'll try turning up the 6.1, the kids were sleeping, so I was restricted to tv speakers at low...

If you do the special events, they payout alot!! Also the driver lic, I did my I-C just to get more xp..

I don't really like the game, graphics are decent and you can see the skid marks now, but that's about it. No 0-400m (1/4 mile), 0-1000m or top speed testing anymore. Drag racing is about all I did with the old GT4 when I got bored. It was also the best way for me to tell how well the performance mods did for me. I've played it a little, but got bored real quick, I need my 1/4 mile.

Edit: Also the Pontiac section was not updated at all, would have like to seen the G8, or even a LS2 GTO. For Chevy adding the Cobalt SS would have been nice.

I like the game cause it has updated cars, but Im really disappointed with the graphics. Compared to the GT HD demo and GT5 prologue the graphics are a cleaned up GT4. Even the interior of the C6 Z06 looks like its been downgraded from GT5 Prologue version. Also, more about the gauges, most are to dark to see what the gauges are reading especially in the C5 Z06. At certain times when your racing and the sun hits the gauges you can read it but other than that its too dark.

Plus the lineup is really complicated. For example the Camaro SS 00, and Chevelle 454 70, are still in the game but cannot be viewed at the Chevy dealership. I bought both as used cars because I wanted them, and since used cars are cycled through, I didnt know when they would be available again.

Overall I would give the game a 4 out of 5. What I think they should have done was kept the game the same as GT4 but include all the new features that are in GT5.
