i suggest you buy only the cars you need for the special races like the one lap overtake all etc. also buy the amuse s200gti whenever you can.

One more thing for guys saving credits to buy the F1 car. The game wont allow you to buy the car unless you have finished all the races (even if you have the credits).

just picked up call of duty 4. havent yet played it. ill also hopefully get racedriver :grid by tuesday and if not then in 2 weeks. also want to buy rainbow 6 vegas and resistance 2. any other games you guys would recommend?

Update on GT5: I played so much that within a day got my credits to 120K and bought myself a Mitsu Evo. I am yet to drive that as my fingers are aching like hell, need a couple of days break.

Btw, i am not able to play apart from C1 class. How do i go to C2,C3 class etc? Which car is essential to play these classes? Also is it mandatory that you move up the game in sequence like C1 then C2 then C3?

Akshay, i highly recommend Ratchet and Clank- Tools of Destruction. I love this game.

Also, I have a brand new original "Assasins Creed" bought in the US and i played this game ONLY ONCE. Is anybody interested to buy it?

Akshay Race driver GRID is home!!! Its a typical arcade style game, decent graphics, insane gameplay. NOt for the likes of GT guys. However, once a GT guy hooks onto it..its simple to understand how this genre of arcade racing can keep you stuck to the PS3 as well.
All in all, race driver Grid is an amazing arcade game.

Anybody here's got Metal Gear Solid 4 yet ?

Does it really have 90 minutes of cut-scenes ?

mobike008 · 19th June 2008, 17:18

Just had a query on GT5 Pro:

Has anybody completed the C event? Out of the 10 events i managed to clear 5 and the remaining 5 just not possible due to :

a) one of the event your using a small powered car and starting at last on the grid and how many times i try, not able to win
b) One of the event you need to come first in a single lap. Again you start last ( overtake all other 20 cars) using a small powered car
c) Swiss alps events are hard to master

Any ideas how to win these events? I really need to get into the big league

. I am playing with automatic, standard physics, driving line etc.

update - i got racedriver grid. seems nice though havent got the time to play it properly. i always brake too late for corners. lol im missing the racing line thats there in f1, gt5, and pro street.

also started playing call of duty 4. amazing game. amazing graphics.

now my next game will probably be dirt.

Guys i just picked up XBOX 360 wireless, hdmi, 20 gb hd

its box says just XBOX 360 its above pro , below elite

however the graphics are amazing and cds are a bunch of loot
70 Rs each i got like 7 complimentary from the vendor.

i have been deciding long for ps3 vs xbox 360 ,
one my frinds has ps3 for almost 9-10 months now. I see him pity..no choice of titles and that too if available 2-3 grands is day light robbery.
another dude of mine actually sold his ps3 to go for xbob 360.

So guys xbox 360

I have 16500 watts sony home theatre DDW1600 and man when I connect
it via optical cable, the monster comes alive and the component display on my 32" samsung lcd tops it off. Plus countless titles to chose from
wow.. life`s fun man!

we are all done with it and on other games.

Shan2nu · 28th June 2008, 22:37

GT5 only had 70odd cars and 5 tracks. It was never gonna last for long. What we need is a team-bhp GT5 meet to spice up things a bit.

Add Nintendo Wii to the title and it will surely liven up. We tried out the Wii at a friends place recently and were blown away by how much FUN this console was. Its altogether different from the Xbox and the PS3 (a battle which the PS3 seems to have won finally and firmly now).

mobike008 · 29th June 2008, 11:15

Thanks guys. I meant how do i overcome the place i am stuck in Gt5. Unable to go to next level just because of the issues that i listed in my earlier post. GT5 gurus,
