I'm playing the demo right now, you can feel the difference in the suspension from the get go. I don't know about you guys with the steering wheel. But it feels much better to drive. :D

No plans to include canada into GT Academy?
Then I have no plans on buying GT6 at all, neither will I buy that 370z I've spotted. Good call Polyphony and Nissan.

I'll have to give it a go. My biggest issue with GT5 was not being able to really "feel" the weight shift...so I had a hard time transferring the weight and thus cornering haha....so if it feels better then that's awesome. I like the look of the body roll...always thought they looked way too stiff.

I think the demo's not available to download anymore since the gt academy qualification thingy is over. But yeah weight transfer seemed to have been improved from GT5.

Well, it's not like they don't want to.

OK Hopefully this will clear it up a little for you. Canadian residents are not allowed to play in online tournaments because of the countries Laws. Which laws you ask ? Well under Canadian law, games of skill or chance are governed under the Canadian Criminal Code specifically Part VII section 197 to 206. Now because the tournament is played by the Canadian resident solely in Canada he is subject to this section of the law.

In this section there are certain requirements for Canadians to be able to claim there prize, One (as Canadian Residents are very familiar with) is the Skill testing questions (or STQ) and depending on which Province you live in you must also meet the "AGE OF MAJORITY (AOM)" Which dose very from to Province. Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, Saskatchewan, or Prince Edward Island.British Columbia, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Yukon, Nunavut, Newfoundland and Labrador, or Northwest Territories.

Now As many Canadians are aware there is Province that causes more problems and makes things more difficult than any other. And of course that Province is Quebec. And under Quebec law any contest that is open to Residents of Quebec must register the contest in advance with the Quebec government, pay a fee of the total contest prize value, and many other regulations. To avoid the extra work, financial obligations, and also avoid any legal action by the Quebec government, many companies will simply exclude Quebec in its eligibility requirement clause in the contest rules. Now as u can see running contest in Canada is very difficult and meeting American restrictions for contests are hard enough. So for that reason we exclude Canada from are Online Tournaments.

I hope this helps you understand why we can't play online, But understand a lot of people are trying to make it legal for us
