Default Anyone else getting Gran Turismo 5?

Just wondering if any of you will also be picking up GT5 next week. I should have my copy on day one and will definitely be squeezing in some game time during the Thanksgiving weekend. Maybe we could plan an online S2Ki race?

pre-ordered through amazon and getting release-date delivery. this game will be epic. at least it'd better be after how long we've waited.

It looks ghetto because I haven't zip tied the wires cleanly yet. Works really well and folds up nicely to hide when not in use. I pre-ordered the CE from Amazon. Can't wait

Riding position makes it look like you're driving a semi truck

It folds down The rubber stops at the ends of those extensions lean on the chair arms or sofa, so it holds the wheel right above your knees (at an adjustable distance).

For those wondering, it's the Xlerator Wheel Stand for Logitech driving wheels. I got the big boy one because it has an extra couple of (adjustable) inches extension and width for the area that sits above your legs/knees. The regular one is not adjustable, and probably would've worked just as well, but the price difference was negligible.

Nice! You won't be disappointed Do you know if GT5 is going to use PSN gamer tags for online races?
