Crap I preordered at amazon. Newegg include shipping and tax?

Well, it's still a while before the release, so you can get away with cancelling and pre-ordering with Newegg. I doubt many people ordered it there. :p

Gran Turismo 5 "Car Index" PlayView Tech Demo

First, the good news: more than 756 of GT5's cars were revealed in a recent tech demo of Sony's PlayView image rendering software. The bad news: we only know that one of them is a Nissan 240ZG.

The only two pictures we have of this PlayView demo (apparently featured at the Tokyo Game Show 2010) were unearthed by our own CoolColJ, which you can see above. To get a better understanding of what you're looking at, check out the following video to see PlayView in action. Basically, it allows you to quickly zoom in on extremely large (34,800 x 92,300) interactive images. Here's an article which goes in to more detail, and curiously mentions that Sony will bring the technology to their games in "fall of 2010″:

The PlayView can deal with not only still pictures but also movies, music, hypertext links, etc. And SCE plans to use the PlayView for electronic documents such as the instruction manuals and guides for game software and start a service called "PlayView for Games" in the fall of 2010.

It sure would provide a fun, fast way to browse GT5's massive car list, don't you think?
