The GT5 v2.0 update was released this week, and now the upcoming DLC packs have been confirmed. Update 2.0 is a fairly major enhancement for GT5 with some great new features and free content, as well as some popular improvements and fixes. Now for the DLC packs – GT5 will be getting four DLC packs arriving on the PlayStation Store on 18th October.
Gran Turismo 5 is getting a massive update to the game. Yamauchi-san and the Polyphony team have been closely monitoring the feedback of the dedicated and discerning GT5 community. As a result of this, we have seen significant support for GT5 in the form of regular functionality updates.
Gran Turismo 5 has received a patch now that the PSN is back up and running. Kazunori Yamauchi made it clear at launch back in November that the game would continue to develop and be updated during its life cycle. This latest update from Polyphony comes in the form of version 1.10 and includes many improvements and new features to welcome players back to online racing via PSN.
If you are a serious racer and have €500 lying around then the Thrustmaster T500 RS is what you want. The Thrustmaster T500 RS is only the second ever steering wheel to be officially licensed for use with Gran Turismo, and is available in Europe, Africa and Australasia.
A new update for Gran Turismo 5 is now available to download. The patch adds several new features and improvements to the game (detailed below), including better rewards in GT Mode for a limited time only, and earning experience when playing online.
As of 6 December, more than 5.5 million units of Gran Turismo 5 have been sold worldwide. This remarkable figure has pushed the series past the 60 million units mark since the series first launched on the PlayStation around 12 years and 11 months ago, back in December 1997.
Gran Turismo 5 has received yet another patch, this time weighing in at nearly 150MB. The new patch required the latest PS3 Firmware update v3.55, which was released earlier today. Early reports suggest that this particular update added a setting for mechanical damage in online games, from “none”, “light” and “heavy”.
Playing online in GT5 is all good until someone brings a super-charged car to the race and smokes everyone in the race. To address the issue Polyphony Digital will be releasing a new patch this weekend to restrict things like max power and weight. As a result, the races will be evenly matched giving everyone a equal chance to win.
