Go! Start downloading and then read more! As you can see above, I'm also downloading it. I hope this bitch fits on my old 60GB PS3.
Make your Gran Turismo 5 bigger and better with the Spec 2.0 patch. This highly anticipated upgrade has come a bit early, and is now available on the PlayStation Network.
I'd like to hear what racing fans think. Is this too little too late? Have you moved on to Forza 4? Or have you been patiently waiting for this big upgrade?

Shadows and fog pixelation greatly improved.
Thank you based Kaz.
I play em for different reasons...
I traded GT5 in because taking a car that could piss all over everyone or taking a car that you didn't stand a chance in, got boring. Does it fix that?
Still one negative on a massive update that fixes more serious problems such as load times and the horrid shadows that occurred at times.
@SC I think they fixed that problem a while back... every car has a rating and each race has a set range allowed to enter. so if the race is rated 400-500pp and the average opponent is 450pp you can adjust your own car's settings to make the race extremely difficult, easy, or middle of the road.
For anybody who hasn't fired up GT5 in a couple days, I would suggest doing so now. Everybody got gifted the Red Bull X2010 car because that one guy won real races.
But I don't so I'm going to pick up my forza 4 ce preorder after work. Yay
You just sold me on re-buying this aweosme game! That was my 1 and only major problem! EXCELLENT!
Tell me how much space it takes when you're done, Dale, as I'm on a 60GB as well.
welcome, brah. can't remember when they implemented that, but it made a huge difference to me.
one thing I wish they would do is adjust the HUD settings (again)... I was excited when they added the ability to choose what HUD info to display, but they left out the one option that I assume would appeal to most people. currently, you can turn off your car's info (rpm, mph, tires, gear shift, etc) or turn off everything. makes no fucking sense. I would much rather turn everything off EXCEPT my car's info... I mean really, they fucking fill the screen up with HUD info that isn't very critical to the race, but I can't get rid of that without also ditching my speedometer and tachometer? I get used to having that visual feedback, especially with a manual transmission.
Sorry to burst your anti-sony bubble but forza 4 is not and will not be better than gt5. Played the demo and the cars do not feel realistic at all. So unless you have a ps3 shut your 12 yr old ass up! The download took me 12 minutes. So get a better connection prick!
@Jimmyx
Your trolling is really get very meager lately, the cracks are showing you're a troll instead of a really retarded 12-year old fanboy, keep working on it, you'll regain your former glory.
You should have gotten it last night. I was downloading it at 10pm
That point is glorious. Forza 4 just came out, and GT5 came quite some time ago, so that means that if there is less used Forza 4s than GT5s in stock GT5 is teh losing!
Having learned the truth, I will convert to the only true, true American based way of life by buying Microsoft stuff and eating at McDo's.
They got that sweet Monopoly thing.
