the Bmw LOLACAUST is next

Well having the engine attached to the car is a good thing to start...

Well right now I'm on a 32'' TV and I sit 4' from the TV... I think it's quite close tho lol. I can see well from 8', it's just that I got used to play with my controller from that distance (didn't know that it was wireless so I always played with the 3' USB cable plugged in the console. )

So my deal would be between Panasonic and Samsung?

Samsung only does 40'' full HDs in LCD. The LN40A650 one looks nice. 1920x1080, 120Hz, 40''.

Edit: Ouch at the price. >.<

Anyway for the size I can see later, I would like to know more about the good brands and the shitty brands.

Panasonic is all we have here, and they seem a little cheaper (price wise) than Sony. They never let us down so I tend to trust them but we didnt buy a TV for the last 3 years so I wouldn't know...

Hi,

Since I got my PS3, something have been annoying me royally. All the TVs here are big ass TVs with standard definition so I basically can't read anything on my cellphone in GTA IV and GT5: P doesn't look as good as it could be.

I want to get a HD TV 1080p that would fit nicely in my room without being too expensive. I tought 32'' was nice since you can see quite ok from a good distance and they are under 1000$ so that looks alright for me.

So, what brand / size / thing should I know about HD TVs?

I was stuck in traffic...


???

Awww... I lost the track.

Does anyone still have it? Crank, I know you do.

Zen: Je joue presque plus à LFS. Gran Turismo 5 a un effet négatif sur mon temps de gaming. >.<

****. NVM I can't test the Skyline tonight I updated the game and stupid PS3 wont let me play for like 5 hours just like it did for Warhawk. I hate it lol.

So it works well with the Momo? Force Feedback and all?

Yup, FFB, wheel and pedals work. Some buttons work too but you have to use the paddles to shift.

Edit:

Quote from TiJay :

I have a random question about the GTR in GT5... if ASM and TC are turned on, does that then reflect a GTR with the aids turned on and vice versa? Or does GT5 still simulate the GTR's computerised stability things even if the ASM and TC are turned off in game?

I could try and drive the mighty Godzilla tonight just to see. I'll come back with that.

Hi,

As some of you probably know, I bought myself a Playstation 3 for Christmas as I was bored of never being able to play any recent game on my PC. I got it and not so long ago, I was given Gran Turismo 5: Prologue by a friend.

At first I wasn't too sure I would like it since it's really not a rFactor or a Live For Speed. After a few races tho, and using my Logitech Momo, this game is really great. I say game because honestly, it's not a simulator. The cars are still well modeled and the tracks too which makes you forget the so-so physics quite fast.

I never played any Gran Turismo before this one because the only other console I owned was a Xbox but I can say it's really nice for the not-too-serious week-end racer willing to hand out with friends without having to worry about his driving skills. If you aint too good, just put the physics to a easier level and you're good to go. The game is still rather easy to play with Professional physics and all aids OFF. Live For Speed probably helped me.

Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that Gran Turismo isn't as bad as some peoples on this forum are saying. Just like Forza 2, really. If you see it from the point of a hardcore simulation racer, you wont like it. But if you see it from the point of someone who want to drive his dream car on the most popular track around the world, then the game will charm you.

Any american car can be considered as worst IMO.

Oups... I forgot to turn the power bar on... All working now.

Hmm... I tried to plug my Momo as the first controller when the console was turned off. I restarted and it didnt work.

I took my DFP, did the same, and yet the PS3 doesn't seem to read them. It's like they're not plugged. The wheels on the DFP are working and all, it's just like there's no wheel recognised...

No it's plugged, besides that, 7% until I can test the wheel in Grid demo. ^_^

I restarted my console and one of the lights is on now. I only have Motorstorm 2 right now and the wheel is recognised. I can't use the pedals tho, I have to use the buttons to throttle and brake. I'll see when I'm done with downloading Grid if I can set it up properly.

I take it not all the games support FFB? Atleast Motorstorm doesn't seem to have FFB enabled but it's the demo so I can't do anything...

Hi,

I'm currently downloading some racing games on my PS3 and would like to try them wih my steering wheel. I checked and the Momo is compatible with the games I'm downloading, but I would like to know something. Is it normal that the two lights on the wheel arent on as they are on my PC? And do I have to plug the wheel in the first USB port so that the PS3 recognise as the controller I will use to drive?

If you have a DFP or a G25 it's the same thing, I just dont get how to make it properly work.

You know you're a real LFS fanatic when you dont start topics called 'You knw you're a real LFS fanatic when...'

Chirstianism is still cool? I quit going to church couple of years ago. To each his own I guess...

Out with the old...

The only good song on the newest album, IMO.

Listening to the same thing as zeugni, and that is true. I wasted 20$.

Why do Lithuanians always start weird threads.

The point of a request is for the one who take the request to do the work.

None.

I bet if a demo player had created this thread, half the forum would now be flooding the thread with '0mg stupid thread lock lock'.

I might be S2 licensed, but I'll be a demo racer in my hearth, for life. <3
