Anyone downloaded the demo with the Nissan on the Indy road course?

I never really got into the prologue version and if the demo is anything  to go by, it seems worse to me.

The graphics don't seem as nice from memory for a start.

The demo only has the Nissan in standard or tuned form and they are near impossible to drive with a control pad especially the standard one.

I've not got a wheel here to compare though but I rarely had my wheel connected to the PS3.

The track just looks dull too.

Not sure if I was expecting too much but after 10 minutes my patience ran out with it.

this "Demo" is actually the GT Academy release, and if you can top the times (if you live in europe) you'll have a chance to goto the GT Academy to drive a Nissan 370Z in a 24h race.

Nah couldn't be bothered this time around. Prologue was such a dissapointment that I thought what's the point. Rubbish on the wheel, AI was still absolutely terrible and online was racing 3 year olds. It's amazing that they are still producing the same game as they did 15 years ago with better graphics and calling it evolutionary, let alone the revolutionary they usually use.

Just tried this....and.....eeeewwww!!!  Does the real car have jelly for suspension?

Awful physics, dull lifeless textures, no crash physics.....

And to think this will be heralded as the greatest racing sim ever. Angry
