Heads up, this a pretty good sized download. I've actually seen several different file sizes, including a 380 MB and now 1192 MB.

Definitely getting this now while the traffic's low - not gonna be fun to download something like this when the store updates. No background DL's for patches either, which is what this is being treated as.

Additionally, the new intro movie doesn't come with everything else - it's optional. You get it by going to Gran Turismo TV from the main menu and downloading it - it then replaces the old one when you start up the game (or so the update notice in-game says). It's 590 MB.

Downloading now, 1192 MB. I'm looking forward to this. I've got a bunch of standard cars I won't drive because they did not have the in car view. Now with this update will I will finally enjoy driving them.

Going to be a busy day, the GT5 update and getting Forza 4 at 9:00am. Drive , drive , drive.

Question to those who have the update: when you save a race in progress, do you have to leave the game completely, or you can keep on racing on other tracks? Thanks

Downloading now... kinda psyched for this after putting the game down since The Show's release.

Maybe I'll finally complete the Endurance races now that I can save them during the race now.

I hope the Greatest Hits version has the patches on the disc. Until then, I plan to wait. GT5 just eats up too much space and my PSN download speed is not very good.

Not sure what to make of this update. Some good features, but it almost seams like the cars are really touchy now. Don't think I like the physica change....whatever that was.

Also I was sad to see the bugatti not get a change to premium. I would have rather had 10 of the best standards go to premium, then have all standard cars get a bogus blackened cockpit view from the bumper cam.
