Following on from the Tweet detailing GT Academys online parti tion, Kazunori Yamauchi has also Tweeted figures about GT5s c*mulative online racing to date a truly staggering 36.4 billion miles in the 577 days since launch! * +

Numbers of this magnitude are difficult to comprehend without context, so heres some equivalents: GT5 players have driven the distance from the Earth to the Sun. And back. 200 times. Or the distance from the Sun to Neptune. And back. Thirteen times. In under 2 years GT5 players have driven three times further than Voyager 1 has managed in 35 years. Wed still take 1,367 years to drive GT5 to our nearest star * +

The average increase in distance is 63 million miles a day, with GT5s online players covering the same distance in 2 days as the entire GT Academy 2012 competition has so far! This corresponds to 2.6 million mph or around 730 miles per second, enough to: Equal the record distance in the Nrburgring 24hr in 3.4 seconds Drive from San Francisco to New York in 3.5 seconds Drive from New York to London in 4.7 seconds Drive from London to Sydney in 14.4 seconds Drive around the Earth in the time * +

took you to read this article Drive to the Moon in 5 minutes 27 seconds Even though the average online race in Gran Turismo 5 is only just over 12 miles in length, the community as a whole is certainly getting their moneys worth from the game with each player driving nearly 500 online miles. * +

Forza4 and gt5 both try Iracing if you want realism, or stick with forza if your happy with the arcady feel and cr*p graphics! Iracing Yes! yes! yes! * +

If a game sells, doesn't mean its good. I bought Diablo 3 and its a piece o s**t. Can't judge a game based on the sales figure. GT5 is s**t. Fact. fanboys disagree coz, well they like playing s**t. Drive any car there, the engine don't sound right even a bit on every car. s**t I tell you. *
