Quote from BlueFlame :GT5 physics better than Forza? LOL

Forza has pretty much no lift off oversteer and the cars are glued to the road with how numb and stiff the cars feel, They all handle like the suspension is 5x too hard then they understeer off the road because the steering aid wont turn the wheel as much as an analogue controller wants, Which is easy to see when using cockpit view...

T10 even said they were dumbing down the Sim aspects to make it more accessible to people that have no interest in Sims, i.e. cripple its sim like edgy driving that had potential in FM1. FM2 feels a better sim than FM3 lol.

Even watching comparison vids u can see FM3 is a numb glued to road arcade racer, No camera shake, no twitchy opposite lock etc etc even in powerful rwd's.. Every vid of FM looks like they are using full assists even when the dash say there r not lol.

Quote from shaun463 :Just got my PS3 and GT5 - disappointed with the physics, but amazed at the graphics .

Best physics so far in a console racing game imo, Better than the Forza understeer off road autopilot u cannot turn off.

Have u patched the game yet? If u just got it then will probably be another 3 days til the small patch has finished downloading lol...

I wouldnt go for the 1.4 turbo astra, Its slow as shit. Went for a test drive in one with a mate and he ended up getting the 1.6 turbo instead... Still not too fast either.

Also the Astra is huge, Almost like an mpv inside with a huge long dashboard and extra windows in front of the doors, Not really sporty at all and had nothing but problems with the electric handbrake and seatbelt warning lights. The red lights inside look terrible too, Like someone has riced up the interior with LED's. They are everywhere and looks stupid at night with red glows everywhere lighting the place up..

She is guilty, People have been locked up for less and if she was black she wouldnt get a 2nd chance..

Its only because the parents are in bed with US politicians and creating a public spectacle just just for camwhoring and money begging, Everyones along for the free media ride humping the publicity.

The justice system in Italy seems to work for them and its kind of pointless getting lawyers from the clown court system of America to try and change the outcome.

Just watching some of the "shes innocent" vids from her parents n friends proves that they are idiots that dont know whats going on, They all seem to have their fingers in their ears over the evidence so far so.

The prosecution is pushing to get her conviction extended to life as they think its too lenient, There must be enough evidence to make them push for life so its not just a clear cut innocent mistake conviction...

1 bit of iffy dna evidence isnt going to make the mountain of other circumstantial evidence just vanish, Or the fact that she couldnt get her story straight from 1 time to another, She changed it/lied so many times it was obvious there was something going on.

3 things i think...

U are running Win7 on it with quite a weak cpu to be doing server loads... Better with Win Xp if u need the computer lag free with spare resources for other things except keeping the Os happy.

U are only running 2GB ram which is kinda low for hosting a few games, especially with Win7.

U are running 64 bit windows while only having 2GB ram in the thing which is pointless and leaves even less ram for apps n shit due to 64 bit bigger registers n code n etc etc. 64 bit Windows is only needed if u are going above 4GB ram, Otherwise it makes things much worse than just running 32 bit Windows.

Also, 32 bit apps run in an emulator on 64 bit windows and run a fair bit slower than native so unless theres a 64bit version of the server then it will run crap anyways...

Do u have loads of crap auto-starting when the computer boots/loads of icons next to the clock? Check in msconfig for how many startup apps u have, U only really want antivirus/Firewall to autorun at startup if u need the pc lag free. I use a seperate "lite" windows install for when mixing or streaming...

Quote from Krane :Disclaimer; I do not support the views purported here in, I, as the provider of the attached picture manufactured elsewhere, only provide the picture for comical relief for which I do not support. I could draw you a picture, but lets just say I have had few people of alternative colouring even few romanís in my close circle of acquaintances, so do not call me any names. Additionally, it's in Finnish and untranslatable so you will not be able to understand any of it anyway.

Is the oil crap coming from a worn cv joint rubber?

The noise might be a failed blow off valve or whatever its officially called. I had one fail on my Passat and it sounded like a wrc dump valve filled with nuts and bolts when it surged..

Quote from Boris Lozac :No one has reported missing money yet.. and who exactly cares where you live? Google already has everything about you anyway..

No credit card numbers were stolen. Or if they were they were encrypted... Well not encrypted but crypro hashed so pretty much the same thing, thats why Sony said they werent encrypted because they werent tho they were still scrambled and unreadable...

Have u done a fresh install of windows or does it still have all the bloat crap u get free with a computer installed?

A fresh install from a proper windows disc is about the best way to get ur laptop cooler and longer battery life...

Also do u use it on ur lap all the time because chances are ur blocking an airvent on the bottom of the thing.

Having the power on max performance all the time wont help either. Better having it on balanced for when on battery at least.

Quote from DeKo :"A big fee" which is £20 per year, or £1.50 per month. What a rip-off. I could buy a can of Irn Bru for that.

Yea but its not some specialist different thing. It doesnt cost on Pc, Wii, Phones or PS3. It might not cost much but still, I shouldnt have to pay twice to use my internet, Especially when its our Xbox acting as the server most the times these days doing the job M$ should be doing...

At the end of the day its internet gaming and LIVE is a perfect working example of selling snow to eskimos...

Also is it not £50 in the shops? Its only cheap if u give M$ ur card details...

Quote from Becky Rose :I'm really not qualified to discuss in depth on the issue as i'm not a Playstation owner. An ex left me a playstation 2 once and I gave it away...

But as I understand it PSN does charge for it's plus service - so what in effect the free PSN is is a free demo version where you pay for the content you use individually. Does this accurately sum it up?

*shrug* It's 6 of one and half a dozen of the other. Sony are after your money, the method they use is the one that they feel will generate them the most money. That doesn't sound terribly "noble" to me. I wouldn't expect any company to act in a noble way frankly, so it's no fault of Sony. I just don't see the point of idolising them.

All of this is far far away from the original point though, which is that Sony were targetted because of what they represent, rather than any specific ill.

Although serving court papers on the friends of the hackers probably didn't win them any merit...

PSN works like gaming on ur pc, U dont pay for anything other than the game for it to work properly. M$ charges u a big fee for what is just a tarted up server browser for internet based games, Which is even more of a ripoff now that most games use p2p/ad-hoc instead of dedicated servers. Unlike free PSN lol, Thats why u get 32-256 player matches on PSN while the biggest i think u get on LIVE is 8-16 players, thats ruined by host advantage all the time too.

Even most of the media content available on LIVE gets sent straight from private internet servers and dont even get routed thru LIVE servers at all.

All u get extra if u pay for PSN+ is free online storage for ur saves, early accesss to betas n free PS1 and arcade games...

In full auto the car probably goes into too high a gear for the situation then rides the torque converter/slips the clutch wasting fuel.

Ive had 2 autos and drive my parents now and again and its damn obvious. Even driving thru town it will go into 5th and then slip and unless u step on the gas hard to get into a reasonable gear, it will go around the place sounding like a scooter or go-kart gearbox...

I just keep the car in 3rd or 4th to keep it with locked torque converter rather than scooter mode...

Im getting this atm with my momo racing. Every time i go across dead centre the wheel jumps and grinds like its missing teeth on the gears, Puts me off being rough with it incase it smashes something inside...

Ive had it in bits and theres no damage inside so idk if its a faulty motor or just ffb bugs in the game...

Going to see if they will exchange it even tho its 2 years old lol, It still looks brand new and has only had maybe 10 hours use...
