i've already pre-payed my GTA4..getting it for my birthday..gonna borrow my buddies gt5 prologue to see if i like it..if i do then i'll just pre-order the game for whenever it comes out.also the same guy pre-ordered MGS4 and the game looks amazing!..graphics are so incredible in the gameas for rainbow six vegas 2, i havent tried the only portion yet, i like offline games..specially if they have a good story and replay value..such as call of duty 4. i may have to go online and give it a shot since i've beat the game in 2 days on normal

Sometimes I work. I called gamestop at 10 when they opened and they had the shipment in, just not unpacked. Took the rest of the day off and been playing since. AI interaction is about the same as the other GT games, they all follow the same lines. New on Prolog is that instead of just the gear selection flashing when approaching a curve it now displays the speed you should be at when attacking the corner as well as still flashing the gear selection. There is also a best line to follow that turns red when you should brake. Graphics are still awesome although I think the demo was still a little better graphic wise but still A+ quality. I started with the Honda Integra and blew through the first group of races and Im now on the second using the GTR. Game play is alot better with 12-16 AI on the track, a little more challanging but not much more.Online is where its at with this, I was online with 12 other people and it was awesome, I will probably be online playing most of the time. Also If you want the credits to add up fast online mode is the place to be. 2nd pays 11,000 4th pays 9,000 I believe. I even had a 6th place finish that paid.I don't think I left much out but I have to take a break to do some errands and some honey doos.Aron

sounds pretty sweet. I was reading that the AI is suppose to react to you... like avoid hitting you should you get into their line. But this may have been for the finished product.

MAV: I m not sure when they are behind you, enev in stock form the AI uses the slowest cars, Their was a couple tracks that I did have to edge the AI over one was the Eiger Norwand and the other was Daytona you have to pass all 15 AI drivers in one lap, I can only get 14 down.I should be online for awhile.Aron

You will be able to do some tuning but you have to complete the class A tournament to have the option avaliable.

well, I have way too many things networked into our home system. If he wants to get online, he's gonna have to get his own internets. Mine is all tapped out!Besides, I prefer to go and drive my car in real life. But I see they have a pic of it right on the cover... so... there you go.

so I played about 40 mins of it last night after we took her new car for a drive. I bought an Integra and breezed through 4 of the C class races. I grinded Daytona a couple times to earn enough money to buy a 2007 (08) white STi. To bad you can't select rim colour. Seems gold BBS rims are only available on blue painted cars. The AI seems smarter to me because some times it seemed they moved out of my way. I'm not always the perfect line racer and some avoided (as best they could) me. Or so it seemed.Graphics are incredible. Getting blinded momentarily after exiting a tunnel is a really cool effect. I've never been a fan if the "bug on a grill" first person view but I LOVE the in camera view. The dash of your car (STi anyway) glows red when your in a tunnel.

I completed C class with gold in everything but the Daytona pass 15 cars, I got second... and third with the cappachino high speed ring time attack and the reverse Eiger Narwand. Off to B class I go. I guess once you beat A class and can tweak your cars... I'll go back to C class cars and power up those wimpy pieces of crap and attack the bronze and silver wins and convert them to gold.

What was your best time with the cappachino on the high speed ring where you have 10 mins to get a 1:49 or less? I got 1:43... that little car couldn't get out of its own way... 63 HP. I'd be impressed if anyone could get a 1:39 out of it without tweaking its HP or something.

I saw it was available for download, but every time I have bought this game I never get into it, so I might just wait this one out.

im the same as you damron, it's hard for me to get into it sometimes. i had forza 2 and liked it abit, after awhile with the longer races it got boring imo.thats why i just purchased the prologue to see if i'd be interested in the actual game purchase when they do happen to release it. i sure hope they got the vibe in it againbeen playing online for abit now..man people dont know what a "clean race" is!! they're all over the damn place trying to push people off the road to get ahead abit
