Oh, ok. I know what caching is, it was just when I quickly read over Metal's post it sounded like it was installing the whole game to the HDD. Thanks for correcting me there.

Not to mention that if you get one with faster seek times, as Oldskooler mentioned, you could improve them further. This is definitely good news, as well as Phil Harrison confirming that trailers/demos will be free.

Ridge Racer 7 new feature interview

Def Jam: Icon Gamer's Day HD gameplay

Fight Night: Round 3 HD gameplay

Ted Price interview

Wow, look what Resistance used to look like (known as I-8 back in May '05):

(Resistance, Oct '06):

Here's some PS3 gameplay demonstration for a few games done during Gamer's Day.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance:http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...14279&type=wmv

Gran Turismo HS: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...14273&type=wmv

Call of Duty 3: http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...14267&type=wmv

EDIT: Links edited so that you don't watch the same thing twice. There's also a Full Auto 2 demonstration at the site too, however I am waiting for the HD video (coming soon) before posting a link.

Fight Night and Icon videos are posted above, Slayer. Downloading the Marvel Alliance, GTHD and Call of Duty videos now.

Can we PLEASE start putting the images in spoiler tags. I know it doesn't save bandwith, but it's annoying as hell to scroll through every single one every time I check this thread out.

Should I start putting the articles and other reads in quotes too?

I don't know if you're being sarcastic, but no. One single article is usually only the size of 1 images, so it hardly takes any space.

No, I was actually being serious. Sorry, I don't know how to pull of being sarcastic IRL, this applies even moreso online.

Wouldn't it be a hassle for those who want to see the images, to click the spoiler tags all the way down a page, even if it's just to view them once?

I guess, but I think most people only view them once or twice. I only view them once, and every other time I check the thread it's just scrolling through all the madness. It's only one click to show them, and scrolling through them all makes it hard for me to find the newest post, which is far more inconvienent then just clicking a couple times to see some images.

True, I figured as much. I've gone back and tagged all, or at least most, of the pictures on those pages. From here on I'll tag screenshots as they go up. It's less trouble for ya'll and for me (since I won't have to go back and spoiler tag them).

Remember those MotorStorm FLVs from a while back? Here they are, courtesy of Bruce, in 720p:

"Donor-cycle"

"Dune Buggy Damage"

"Mean Truckin'

Another article on the feature, and apparently, Mobile Suit Gundam is also another title that has this feature. 15 seconds isn't bad, but damn, 4 is just wild.

you probably already know that but you can click on this little button http://www.gamingforce.com/forums/im...s/firstnew.gif before each thread that have new post and it take you right away to the newest post since your last visit (it even scroll the page down to the newest post >.>)

For those of you interested in GT5, here's a repost of the GT:HD video linked to by Slayer as well as the TGS presentation of GT:HD/Premium by Kazunori Yamauchi. It's subtitled, so no worries.

GT:HD video (The Lotus Elise in this game looks gorgeous. I can't believe we have to wait until 2008 for GT5 proper.

TGS GT:HD/Premium presentation

Edit: Ah, more goodies for you GT fans out there. Logitech's got a new steering wheel launching with the PS3 in Japan. While a U.S. release date hasn't been announced, I'm sure there will be one soon after it hits the Japanese market.

In other news, downloading HD videos really does a number on my internet connection.

Yeah, but that doesn't work to well when it's loading about 5000 images all at once, and the page just skips around randomly.

Those MotorStorm vids are nice, I think I'm finally convinced to get it now.

Word is MotorStorm is a 2007 title, probably a European launch release. They're definitely going to have a very strong launch lineup over there. Don't fret though, because the Phil Harrison interview I posted had him confirm that MotorStorm would be one of game demos available for download on November 17th.

I think they forgot how shadows work though. The race track environment doesnt affect the lighting on the car =( Sure photorealistic mountains but I think I'd rather have shadows that are darkening the road you're driving on actually darken the car when it drives through them. It looks so weird. =/

That's a GT4 background. It's even more obvious if you see the Ferrari video they had eariler. The cars in this video are closer to completion than the track.

I'm still not digging anything regarding GT:HD... It just seems like a cop out.

Work on GT5 (though I won't play it anyways), and release a 2-track demo on the PS3 network for those interested.

Two new screens for anyone looking for bluetooth headset/microphones/headphones or any other bluetooth device. That report that came up a few days ago mentioned this is where you register the controller, and from what I've heard, this is how all bluetooth compliant devices are when first used.

Not much to add today.

Here's a gameplay demo from Gamer's Day of Full Auto 2 for the PS3.
http://www.gametrailers.com/player.p...14290&type=wmv

Just to clarify, those last 3 screens are shots from the track viewer that uses the Sixaxis to move around and enjoy the details of the track... or something. The other thing is some neat 4 player split-screen online mode.

Can I say again how amazing RR7 looks in those shots? I love the attention to detail. Can't say that about the bloody GT:HD environments we've seen... In comparison, they look downright lifeless imho.

Well if you watch the Gran Turismo gameplay demonstration from friday they say in that that the game's character models still have a ways to go before completion. But to me they still look pretty good. Also in a previous interview they pointed out that car lighting and shadowing have yet to be applied to the game also. So it's hard to say how much better GT:HD will look, but it doesn't come out until summer '07 where RR7 is a launch title as you know and therefore is much more complete then GT. But to tell you the honest truth, the GT franchise has always just been a pretty tech demo for the PS consoles to me for I can't really get into sim games of any type. So I'm not too concerned with GT myself. However RR7 will be in my library probably even before I get the console, ^^;

UPDATE:
