just picked up Driveclub and a wheel
yall got any room left in the NT club?

Nice. One thing I can say is using brake is very important. Sometimes instead of holding down brake I'll keep tapping until I get to a speed I like.


One car I underestimated because of previous racing games was the Bentley. Not the fastest but for reason I was about to get 3 stars from a time trial that three other cars gave me trouble doing.

This is so true... and for all racing games.  To many times I've seen people keep their foot on the gas and just try to plow through EVERY corner... it just doesn't work that way! 

And sometimes it's not even necessarily using the brake... depending on the corner, lifting-off will be enough!  Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.

@empirestrikesfirst  have you tried to play Vita games on the PSTV? How do they look? All the reviews I read focus on the cons which are mostly about how the PS4 remote play is trash. I feel like I must be the only who is getting the PSTV to actually play my Vita games on a TV. I bought a PS4 to play PS4 games on the console itself, didn't really know that this was a bog deal for potential buyers

Yea the game's SIM like in that aspect, it's just more forgiving if you make an error and doesn't have assists or tuning options.

Some of the Hyper cars definitely need that delicate throttle control around and when coming out of corners. Especially the Hennessy Venom :x

I'm not even there yet but I'm anticipating it. I drove the Maserati and kept spinning out lol.. I don't even like using handbrake anymore.

Contacted Sony about getting my DS4 replaced, couldn't get anything extra out of it though, not even a lousy PS store card or extra months of psMINUS.  Oh well..

Same here, they wasn't budging. I even talked to a manager about it. At first I really was just trying to scam them but then the more I thought about it, the more pissed off I got. I pay $65 for a controller, after tax. Why should I have to pay to ship it back to Sony when they shipped a broken product. I don't care if it's only a few $ to ship it. After you pay for shipping, you looking at $70-$75 for a controller

I got a free one from amazon and kept the old one.

Just so you know, amazon keeps track of that. If you abuse that courtsey, they'll ban your account. I read several ppl's accounts of that.

Only had my PS4 for a lil over a month and the rubber on my left thumbstick is already starting to peel off.

Thumbstick grips, fellas. Don't know how many times it has been recommended to y'all.

i think it is truly the luck of the draw because mine are still in good shape and others who have had it for less than me have bad thumbsticks
