The Spec 2 update is now up, size is 1.2GB.

[Ryzza5]

Any way to download that on a PC and transfer it?

 

Will give the PS3 Proxy server app another go I think...

If anyone needs to download the 1.16GB Spec 2.0 update on a PC rather than direct to their PS3 using the PS3 ProxyServer app, then they can download the update here:

Yes, that's MegaBYTES per second :yay:

Totally buying the Racing car pack just for the Prius Touring car. :cheeky: Spa is nice to have though.

 

Edit: Seems like the Karts are available in Arcade mode after the Spec 2 update.

[Ryzza5]

Only two new tracks after a whole year - disappointed :(

[Ken]

I was hoping more of different cars, not just the same cars in the game with racing trim packages...

[T1M]

The car DLC is rather disappointing, the same cars we already have with a few modifications shoved on.. 1 year to come up with that? Hmm. I was expecting some new road cars but oh well. The Spa track pack though.. :drool:

[TDUFREAK500]

I am totally disappointed about the DLC

 

E: just saw the pics on GTP and the Kart track and the cars look hot

[superhyper]

Spa? Re-he-he-he-heally? :( If I know T10, we'll never get such an awesome track in Forza >_> The car pack is just nothing special, altough the new Red Bull prototype looks pretty badass :hmmm:

 

Atleast Forza kicks GT5's bottom on pretty much every other aspect :cheeky:

[Ryzza5]

Maybe only a few were working on the DLC while most have moved onto GT6 :mhmm:

[Paladin Skylark]

Same.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA - YOU SO FUNNEH.

 

In all seriousness, way to go PolyPHONY - you've managed to make crap DLC and expect us to pay for it.

[Ozzmcom]

SPA FTW I'm defo buying it. Altho I won't buy the car pack they're all the same :hmmm:

[Paladin Skylark]

Even though it's Spa, it's only one good track.... Not worth my money.

[calster17]

Although Slightly disappointed, It's actually nice that something came from it.

 

Sure its not what everyone was expecting, but least it something. I can safely say that I'm buying them completed pack(all DLC in one).

We can hope that maybe they'll add more after this, but I can see that it'l be be for GT6 whats done from now.

 

The idea of 125 Karts on Green Hell sounds a bit mad!:D

[Ozzmcom]

Even though it's Spa, it's only one good track.... Not worth my money.

 

I'd still pay for it if it was $10 . I love spa that much. Where's I won't even spend my time looking for that car pack in ps store.

[t.]

The car pack is frankly an insult to GT5 players.

[Ozzmcom]

yeah I have to say forza is far ahead of gt in the car list section , even forza3 could easily beat the list.

[cis4care]

This.

[Ken]

The only car I like coming out of that car pack is that RX-7.

[cis4care]

PD gets the award for the most useless, unneeded and, for the most part, unwanted additions to a game ever. Bravo, PD. Bra-flipping-vo.

[Camel]

Lol, what a waste of time. I was hoping the update would actually be something good. Oh well.

[cis4care]

Well, it has many upsides, but honestly, they could have saved my time and excluded the brand new 500mb intro. I have it disabled anyways and I simply dgaf.

[Paladin Skylark]

I'm questioning if Polyphony knows what their customers really want... they seem to have no clue.

 

[Prophecy]

looks at dlc pricing again* if the track pack is 10 dollars like i think it is, and the complete dlc pack is 11, i will probably get the complete one, but yeah... What a ridiculous idea this all is.

 

edit: nope, track pack is 5 dollars. I dont think im getting any of it then. Spa is great but not that great.

Ok, So if I download this now .pkg file, How on earth am I going to install it on the PlayStation and make it work with my Gran Turismo??? And is it Legal to do it this way? Because the PlayStation is just to far from my router to get a good signal for downloading so I want to use my PC...
