yes, but with PS4 they will be limited to two analog button types, the triggers and the sticks.  The "buttons" do nothing more than on and off, no in between.

Exactly,  with PS2 and PS3 the X, O, square, triangle buttons were analog with something like 255 states/levels between on and off.  With the PS4 those same buttons are just on and off.

It's a difficult/frustrating change for some one like myself that used X and Square for gas and brake, since the release of the PS2 and same basic button configuration since the days of the Super Nintendo.  Going from Digital to Analog was a treat. Going back to digital makes these type of games almost unplayable.  Which is why I've bought but barely touched games like Grid Autosport and the older Nascar games by EA because they lack analog button support.

Same here dlr. I've been using X and square since GT1, making the transition to another configuration will be tough. GTA V forces you to use L2/R2 for gas and brake, but you don't have to shift gears. Throw that into the mix, and being even close to competitive will be tough.

The old school guys are getting left behind, and there's no way in hell, I can justify spending hundreds of dollars for a wheel rig, just to play a game. For 5-600 bucks, I can do some cool shit to a real car.



I've been taking a lot of odd jobs (gutter cleaning, tree trimming, etc.) in addition to my regular full time job, just to make some extra money.  I need to find a few thousand this summer.  I cannot justify buying a compatible/cheap wheel (cheap being 4 bills) right now or in the foreseeable future.
I'm with ya Chrome, that extra 5-6 hundred makes a huge difference to me.  Except, I'm not going to be doing anything cool to my cars. :jimi:

That is where I basically at as well.  I'm to the point I can almost justify a PS4 between PCars, GT and a few other games that look promising. But add in a compatible wheel and rig, the price of the games and PS+ to go online, that $400 investment easily jumps to a $1,000 or more.  I can think of several things related to my house or my cars that I could use that money on.

When I was a controller user (GT4) I used square and triangle as down and up shift, respectively.  You might like it.

So according to IGN Project cars has gone gold.  So there should be no more delays.

http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/04/17/project-cars-goes-gold-reveals-110-different-courses


So now the question is, is it worth $460 plus tax?  :-\

 I like the track list...

Same here, I think.  I'm floundering like a tuna out of water.

My buy in a few years ago was supposed to be my platform of choice. They have since changed that and I get the full game with the first car pack on Steam only. So, PC here ::)

Here's a PS4 video just a couple weeks old for you console guys to ponder. They are still claiming 60FPS in all conditions and I think he mentioned 40 cars? Keep in mind this dude is using a controller. So when you see the wheel flicking back and forth he says that's why.
