87GT Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Can't wait. Might even build this when it comes out. http://lifehacker.com/5683430/diy-racing-game-cockpit-inside-an-ottoman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
944s2 Posted November 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Haha I have the G25 and a playseat as mentioned before and love it. http://www.playseat.com/en Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 I always said that when GT5 finally made it, I'd consider building a full scale racing rig. Trying to figure out which direction to go. Full rig like Visionracers is nice. It can be moved room to room, allows for essentially a racing "appliance". Another option is to mount a large LCD to the wall and use one of cheaper rigs pushed up against the wall. Less tidy for sure. For me I'd use the PS3 for nothing but GT5, so a full blown standalone rig wold work for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do it and send me pictures of your "appliance" setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Brian Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 I'd rather just use a controller.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 I still have the wheel from GT3 that has the 900 degree rotation. Though I might update for 5. Downside is that the playseat setup I have isn't all that great and doesn't have an allowance for the G25's shifter module. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thorne Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 http://www.logitech.com/en-us/gaming/wheels/devices/4172 I have that and I'm contemplating buying a STi Seat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicranium Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Good sweet christ... looks like I might need to pick up a PS3 for this. Didn't get into GT4 too much but GT2 and GT3 absolutely raped my adolescence. That video was incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Just *peeked* at the first moments of the intro. Weather effects will be awesome to have. I hope GT5 lets me run the 'Ring in the snow. Even better if it'll let me do that with one of the WRC cars.. *drool* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmonda Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 I have one of these http://www.virtualr.net/obutto-ozone-racing-cockpit-review/ with with a G25. I use the 'keyboard' shelf for my laptop and the 'mouse' shelf for my booze. A friend of mine in Florida has the same setup and we use eyeball chat as a cockpit cam while we are racing with the prologue version of the game. Can't wait for the actual game.

CRed05 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 I hate waiting to play a game for the first time when there's an update. This one is 133MB, and the game isnt even out yet. This should clog the series of tubes pretty good on a release day right before thanksgiving. http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=277393 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

944s2 Posted November 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 BTW be prepared this game takes 50 min to install I hear..... so grab a beer. Soooo much compressed shit unpacking I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard you can install as you go with this game actually. Maybe that was a different PS3 game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 I think it's hilarious that after waiting all this time; days, months, years, and you guys are bitching about the install already. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 I heard you can install as you go with this game actually. Maybe that was a different PS3 game. I thought I read that about GT5 too.... I am going to be picking it up tonight, and dusting my PS3 off. I haven't played it since God of War III came out, so in addition to having to install the game, I will probably have to install updates too, and PS3 updates take FOREVER.
