Gran Turismo 5 requires a small install of 256MB to run - but to get the best out of the game, you're going to need to take up a much bigger chunk of your PS3's HDD.

Polyphony Digital boss Kaz Yamauci has recommended players earmark 10GB of space to install the game - presumably to take the heat off the Blu-ray disc.

According to a Tweet from the man himself (translated by Andriasang), Yamauchi believes a 10GB install is required for a "smooth" gameplay experience.

Cripes. We can only imagine what Gran Turismo 6 will take up.

Sony this month detailed a Collector's Edition of GT5, which contains a model car, a key fob and loads more besides.

GT5 is due for release on November 2 in the US and a day later in the UK and Europe.

Bloody hell... Mind you, what's the average? :?

All I know is that GTA4 came with a beard trimmer... :lol:

Dammit. Sony were a bit stingy with mine, giving me only 20GB HDD. Given that they had issues over people upgrading their hard drives, I think this is gonna be an issue.

Then you have to add in game saves. That will add up to a lot. I have filled my Xbox solely with saved games.

Only with the last but one firmware, but they've apparently fixed that.

When the PS3 was released, they were saying this about a lot of games. Never really came to fruition, personally I would like to option to install the game (or at least chunks of it) onto the HDD in more cases.

Especially as it is faster than the optical drives.

Those prices cant be right can they. G25 for £77 and G27 for £100. Cant see it. I know they do the Driving Force GT for about £70-£80 already.

I think the prices are direct currency conversions and not the expected price One of the comments states:
Quote:
£329 for the GT27 and £119 for the GT. The prices are on Logitech's site.


A bit pricey to say the least!
