Well as I said GT5 is 'put on the shelf' for me now, Ive lost all interest in the Game.

GT6 better have some good features or I aint gonna bother buying it nor a PS4.
Im not parting with any cash for the same tuning options even if it has got better graphics, Ive gotten bored and completed GT5 after 2100 days game play....

If GT6 is going to offer the same style etc then im off!

So whats the point?

*Best message ever in gt5 history*

I haven't gotten banned either, or heard of anyone else getting banned, for that matter. I've even done pretty much everything possible, shy of actually using the cars for cheating, even posing as "Kim Jong Un" in online lobbies (although I'm not sure if that "feature" actually works properly). I'm interested to know if anyone here has gotten banned though, and why. It could be that this is just a bluff on PD's side, to try to scare people into stop using the hybrids.

Just seen its made the front home page on the GT planet web site, so i left my message to Sony there it reads:

This I think this is possibly the wrong way for Sony to do and it could do more harm to the GT5 followers than good…..
I’ve been into the GT series since it first started and a petrol head for as long as I can remember!
When GT5 came out I was playing it on the same day and was amazed at the accuracy of the cars and the game play itself. But after a year the game was virtually completed and nearly all the cars bought or won, the game that I loved became ‘stale’ losing the sparkle and attraction it first had.
I’ve played the online lobbies with Track days, Drifting, Nacar, Dirty Nascar, Cops n robbers etc. and again I’m bored of the game again.
Then I started to see these cars that were flying past at 1000mph with 60000bhp and wheels that stick out like wings on a Jumbo…. Now to me they seemed a total waste of time and space , what is the point in going so fast in a straight line and crashing into everyone else? they serve no purpose what so ever!
However it did open the opportunity for a group of Petrol Heads to create some cars with engine/chassis transplants that were appetising.
For example dropping a 1969 V8 from the Ford Pace car into the Aston Martin Vanquish gave it a sound that an Aston should have when driven hard, that deep growl with a hint of a rasp sounded exquisite (ok the Vanquish was a V12 not a V8 but it sounded right) and with the right tweak here and there it had the proper Bhp too. And I’m sure there are lots of other combination people have done that would be a dream to drive….
Personally what they should of done is to restricted the online play so no ‘modified cars’ could be used in any of the online challenges and then to add an option in the lobby set up so that modified cars or hybrids can be excluded when desired. Also putting a limit on the BHP increase capping it at say 1800bhp to stop the silliness would be a good idea too.
Now that the recent injection of life to the game has been removed I feel that GT5 is no longer a game I wish to play, there is nothing exciting there making me want to play it now. (there is only so long one can play a game that has been completed)
I dare say I am probably not the only one who will now be looking for an alternative game to play…..
GT6 better have some good options or tuning/customization features or I’m not going bother buying it nor a PS4 to play it on. It will be just the same as GT5!!!!!
I’m not parting with any money for the same game that will be completed in 2 years even if it has got better graphics……

So Sony you will have ‘Poop or get off the toilet’! You say you will ban everyone involved and that’s a BIG statement. Just remember if you ban everyone who has done it that’s going to be a very large number GT5 gamers who buy DLC’s and potential customers of GT6 and the PS4.

You could lose a lot of business here? (This is where Microsoft come forward with a fully tuning game with all the bells and whistles lol) but for now its sayonara from this GT5 player…….
