    The sound is disappointing also. I thought the car sounds were going to be significantly improved in GT6, but they seem identical to GT5.

    Supposedly sounds will get re-vamped via an update to come at a later date.

    Yeah, a new generation of Dyson and Hoovers is just around the corner. Eddy Van Halen even lent Kazanori his phase shifter pedal again.

    Yeah sounds seem identical. I will say one thing though- this is the last of the games that aren't some corporate BS. Sure this thing has to make money, but it still feels like it's some man's dream, and that's why I still love it, warts and all.

    Doing the glitch now, it's quite apparent PD has severely pulled back the amount of money you earn in an attempt to get you to buy credit with real money. I'm a good way through the game and still broke, relatively.

    exactly my feeling. I had everything done up to the international a license and still hadn't reached 1 million bucks.

    I believe I read somewhere that doing the entire game once and only using prize cars will net you a total of $7m, that's just ridiculous.

    I'm getting offers for this game as a present to me, but I'm declining them all. Polyphony is too disappointing, I don't even want the game for free! I'm still bummed out about GT5 tbh, Forza is making far more fun games with far more relevant cars.

    I just tried the $20 million glitch. Nope. Didn't work for me. Cost me 700,000 cr. FWIW, I have the 15th anniversary version. So...waaaaah for me.

    It might have already been patched but really not sure yet. Also finding out that even though the game has boasting 1200 plus cars, there is only room in your garage for 500 of them but that might be a another bug as well.

    I did the rally IB off road & snow rally challenges last night & found it all to easy, not really much to it. With the 25 cars the anniversary addition provides, the Audi Quattro stomps every thing else. Tonight I played Dirt 3, a game that was released back in 2011 & I really found it a bit more enjoyable. The engine sounds, crash physics, tracks, & even graphics seem better than GT6.

    There is something called the "stockyard" where you can supposedly store 9,999 cars.

    bought the nitrous tune part and can't get it to work? I drive the car push EVERY button over and over and nothing happens!

    I don't think there is a default button for it, once mapped it worked fine for me.

    I got mine and played an hour today. Cant see much difference in terms of graphics with GT5. Actually it seems the cars have a mirror like paint in some angles which is pretty bad.
    Sound for the 458 is still awful. XKRS has a decent sound though.

    Everything i *****ed about GT1/2/3/4/5 is still there (Countless Nissans and such, stupid championships, slow loading menus).

    The plus are the new tracks and some new cars.

    The paint/customisation is still below forza.

    Can you turn off body damage??

    Includes a repair to the winnings. I went from $300k to $2MM in a single event. Also adds a new Vettel/Newey "Formula Driving School" (I haven't opened International B license yet) that sounds pretty cool. I believe there will similarly be something built around Senna in the future...and all of this is free.

    While the game does have warts, I really like the depth of support Polyphony is putting around it. While no Vettel fan, I'm looking forward to unlocking that feature and seeing what the Red Bull team bring to the GT6 experience.

    The Red Bull Formula X2014 Jr. are a blast to race, very fun challenge & the cars stick to the course very well but not all that high powered. The best I could to is finish 2nd in the series. Not all that much of a fan of the 125cc karts, one bump into a wall & then your in 12th place. That new arena track is a pain in the arse.

    I'm currently on the IA challenges, at least the payouts have increased. Gotta buy some more Ferraris.

    Do the seasonal events...you get to the $1MM+ range very quickly. Same with the Goodwood challenges.

    Yeah, not real happy about the karts...one mistake is fatal. And yes, that new arena track is terrible!

    The Goodwood event was fun. You need a Logitech G27 and PlaySeat though to bag gold with that last one with the ridiculously fast Red Bull car.

    I'm a huge fan of the X2014 Junior I hate to say. Drives VERY well and actually controllable as opposed to the full blown monstrosity.

    So fun, but i still couldn't get below 7 mins at the Nurburgring. Its lack of horsepower offsets the impeccable road manners and handling.

    Still playing, has anyone had issues with the IB NASCAR challenges? I know it's all about drafting but one bump into the wall, I get airborn then wind up in 16th place.

    @#$%!!
