Gran Turismo 5 Birthday Ticket Guide

Gran Turismo 5 Birthday Ticket Guide

Gran Turismo 5 birthday ticket guide by sprodigy.

The purpose of this guide is to give you an idea of what to expect when opening your birthday ticket.

F.A.Q.

What is a Birthday Ticket?
----------------------------
A birthday ticket is a prize-car ticket that unlocks on your birthday.
It will automatically alert you of the ticket when you log into Gran Turismo 5
on your birthday. You must have a PSN account and be logged into PSN for the
ticket to unlock. The ticket that unlocks is a car from the year of your
birthday. Example, if you were born in 1985, a car from 1985 will be on the
ticket.

I can't wait for my birthday, can I hurry it up?
------------------------------------------------
No, since this would require changing the birthdate on your PSN account;
something that cannot be done.

Is there a way to cheat the system?
-----------------------------------
Yes, although controversial, there is a way to do it with multiple PSN
accounts. All you have to do is create an alternate PSN account with the
year of your choice (must be 18 years old, so 1992 is the latest), and the
birthday ticket will unlock on the day and month you choose. There are a few
other creative ways to "glitch" the birthday ticket system, but I will not
post them here.

Can I trade/gift the tickets?
-----------------------------
Yes.



Car List


Below is a list of cars that will unlock for the year of your birth. You will
get one random car from that year.

Black OPS Tips and Hints

Black Ops Tips and Hints

Here are some Call of Duty Black OPS tips, if you would like to submit your own, please contact us. Thank you for your submissions.

Silenced Rushing Tip by Aerotobi:

I like to rush with a silenced AR (AK47, M16). Usually run either Ghost, Warlord, and Marathon or I swap Warlord with Sleight of Hand or Marathon with Ninja. There is a range of diverse routes you can take in every map, but the best approach is to rush to safe spots of low traffick before entering hot spots on the map. Avoid cutting into spawn routes and instead go behind or to the side from where they're spawning. Don't stay too long and try to migrate away from where you stay to the other side slowly since the enemy will pick up on this. I try to leave C4 where I was and detonate it once I'm safely away by double tapping X.

Hacker is nice to find equipment that may well potentially ruin your flank path. I sometimes put Motion Sensors in low traffick areas and run off and maintain an eye on the red blips to catch flankers. Marathon is the obvious rush perk, however as I use a headset, I prefer Ninja because it helps me hear which direction enemies come from and helps me stay a bit more secure from enemies who also use a headset.

In close combat situations the person who hipfires first will usually win. Steady Aim Pro will help you ADS quicker out of sprinting, but you should not be sprinting into a firefight in the first place, and more crucial, avoid getting caught off guard as the flanker. Meanwhile, Sleight of Hand Pro helps you ADS faster in general, and the fast reload is always nifty in a pinch. I use Warlord for Duel Mags merely because I prefer the extra ammo along with the Suppressor. Scavenger isn't helping since I'm running Ghost to avoid SP and not all guns enemies use have the Suppressor either. Then the extra lethal and tactical grenade is always good too.

Story & Setting

The King has died, the people of Skyrim are now divided on whether to secede from the empire or to stay a part of it, this conflict could spark civil war. The Elder Scrolls prophesied the return of Dragons. Signs of a shattered Staff of Chaos (Elder Scrolls: Arena), the appearance of Numidium (Daggerfall), the volcanic Red Mountain (Morrowind), the opening of the Oblivions Gates (Oblivion) and a Civil War were all precursors to the truth, the destruction of the world through fire, a dragon named Alduin also known as The World Eater will ravage the world.

You are guided by Esbern, one of the few surviving blades. He's been following the prophecies and knows that Tamriel is in serious danger. You belong to a dieing blood line, you are the only known Dragonborn in Skyrim, a blood line capable of facing dragons. Skyrim is set 200 years after Oblivion.

Bethesda Clarifies Skyrim Level Scaling Rumors

Bethesda Clarifies Skyrim Level Scaling Rumors

Here is a quote from an official at Bethesda about the Elder of Scrolls V Skyrim level scaling rumors that have been going around

"Since people are asking, wanted to briefly touch on level scaling. All our games have had some amount of randomness/levelling based on player level. Skyrim's is similar to Fallout 3's, not Oblivion's."

The quote is from this post on the official forums.



Dead Rising 3 In the Works

Dead Rising 3 In the Works

Capcom has announced that Dead Rising 3 is in the works. Here is the quote:

"Obviously, with all of that success on Dead Rising 2, it makes sense to move onto Dead Rising 3," said Reeves. "I think that they [developer Blue Castle Games] may extend it by bringing in new characters and new interactions, or bring back others from before.

"The idea would be that we'll bring digital content to bridge a link between DR2 and DR3. It's a bit like an online game in that way - a continuous story. I don't want to say episodic, but I think you'll be find there'll be scriptwriters coming in to [continue the story]."



3DS will last for 8 hours of play time per charge

3DS will last for 8 hours of play time per charge

The official numbers for the Nintendo 3DS are three to five hours of playing time. The number increases to five to eight hours if playing an older DS title. Compared to the 10-14 hours of charge time the DS has, this is pretty low. Haus of Mario Chief Satoru Iwata has stated that it is "inevitable that the Nintendo 3DS will require more frequent recharging than the Nintendo DS."
