Uh, what? I believe that's what an English teacher would call a run on sentance, I'm having trouble figuring out what you meant, "thats my main complaint about this game every thing is good". What??

On another note, I think that GT's designers are either getting lazy or uncreative. GT3 was revolutionary, GT4 was still good but it didn't really change very much, it's only real changes were wings (oohh, I can rice out my NSX!), B-spec (now I don't even have to drive) and nitrous (oohh, naws!), it was more like GT3 2004 edition. GT5 just seems like yet another minor evolution. There are very few new features, in car view (big deal) and maybe, possibly crash damage (about time). One of the main things that shows a complete lack of creativity and lack of effort on the designers part is the complete lack of visual customization (same size rims and gaudy wings don't count). While it may not matter to some, I think it makes GT5 look out dated even before it's launch. Extensive visual customization has been commonplace on all "real car" style driving games for years. I mean come on, I'm not just talking about body kits, even things like upgraded brakes and exhausts don't show up on your car (it always shows factory brakes and exhausts, no matter what upgrades you have). You also can't add functional upgrades such as splitters an diffusers, and how hard would it be to allow you to paint your car in something other than a factory color. The reason GT's developers say they can't do visual upgrades because then they wouldn't be able to model the cars to their standards. Forza and NFS pro street both offer both extensive visual upgrades and impressive photo realistic modeling, how come GT5 only offers one? Even though I am a big GT fan I hope that GT5 flops, I think that the lack of progress with the franchise is disappointing and I think the developers have become uncreative. If GT5 is a flop then maybe GT6 would be much more innovative and impressive. End rant.
