PD is doing a great job. I really hope they keep it coming and try to always improve themselves and their games. That's what's most important I think. Just like a driver has to conquer himself and his own weaknesses to be the best.
I wonder if PD will add the option of having a rolling start to the online part of the update? That would be cool to have in the game...
Woo hoo. I'll have to wait my patience being 3hrs behind most of you guys, plus I have an appointment after work. It's going to be a long 6-7 hours before I get home to start downloading :/ BTW I dunno about you guys but I'm going to backup my GT5 save data before installing the update......just in case
Some great pics of the new interior views for open top standard models.... sahweet. http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?p=6009142#post6009142 I'm keeping an eye of the very fast moving GTP thread and will update here reports on noteable updates that weren't announced or certain prior to release...

yeah koastr i've just started downloading 2.0 and haven't backed up so finger crossed and touch wood, :/ that nothing goes wrong. will post roughly how long it takes to download, but that with my connection which has had heaps of issues ever sense i got it it started saying it would take 65 mins but it flying at the moment. (happy with that)
Sweet. I'll be interested to know. Driving the super fast cars like the X2010 and forumula's the shaking and jerky FFB in my G25 was terrible sometimes, especially over bumps. Would be nice if that's smoothed out.
