VA/MD Gran Turismo Challenge (March 15)
 
UPDATE:

Okay.. This event is a go. I may post this to our PSI challenged friends on CR.net also.

Here are the details:

When:
Saturday March 15, 2008 starting at 10am

Where:
My crib - Alexandria, VA 22303 (I will give address personally)

What:
Gran Turismo Prologue - I will order the Jap Spec as the US game is not out. I will have ONE racing wheel and ONE gaming chair + sofas and what not.

Food:
Pizza and Beer will be provided

What can I bring:
More beer, PS3 wheels, any peripherals you may need.



Please post if you plan on attending.



Other notes: If this date does not work for people.. let me know personally and we can shift it to a later weekend. I have a 52" 1080P TV, however, if we wish we can rent out the "screening room (seen below)" in my complex which consists of a full HD projector, kitchen, and billiards room upstairs.

OLD:Well.. since GT Prologue is coming out soon I thought I would throw this idea out there:
I am thinking of hosting a GTP (or GTHD depending on the date) challenge in the NOVA (alexandria) area. Anyone would be welcome... I'll provide the beer/food/PS3 (52" 1080P) /Steering Wheel..
As another option, my community has a screening room that accepts HD plug ins.. so if people chip in we could play it on the big screen and also use the billiards table.

I was thinking the first weekend in March.

Anyone interested?


Who's coming list:
Newbsauce (Brad)
Braineack (S
cott)
y8s (Matt)

That7Guy (Sevan)
pschmidt
Shueind (Lars)

I can hold down last place... but interested.

(i'm spoiled for simulators with my job)

Your job of creating virtual reality sex devices in no way gives you street cred in a GT challenge :nono:

who said I had cred? I said I suct.

I'm no good because I can't feel how fast I'm going--especially around corners. I spin. Lots. Road Hazard Lots.

Braineack 02-01-2008 04:02 PM

haha i'm down. I haven't played since GT2 on PS2.

Newbsauce 02-01-2008 04:06 PM

If you want to make it real fun.. turn off the traction control and driver assist or whatever that shit is.

that7guy 02-01-2008 04:12 PM

lol I sux too but I would give it a shot. I heard the game is killer.

I turn it on but not maximum. I need a LITTLE drifty.

pschmidt 02-01-2008 06:26 PM

I can probably score the race seat the wheel bolts and two extra wheels if that helps at all.

shuiend 02-01-2008 08:33 PM

I am game. Just give me a date and time and I will be there. Well as long as it isnt the weekend of the 22nd or Feb.

that7guy 02-02-2008 01:46 PM

As you can see from the title of this thread...DC people are not invited. So if you could just see you way out now that would be great.....K thanks....

y8s 02-02-2008 04:32 PM

oh damn, sure enough. you still bitter over my faux pas? ;)

Newbsauce 02-02-2008 10:26 PM

I am looking to do it the first weekend of March. However GTP is not releasing until April 15th in the states. So either I'll buy the region free Japanese version or we'll do GT HD.
