HD is the basic 'demo' that was in the PS store from launch day. Prologue is a more involved stop gap until the proper GT comes out.

It's released on the 28th of March. Where did you order your ps3 from? I'm just trying to see if HD is still available so I can go and buy one today.

GT HD Concept doesn't appear to be available anymore - there was talk of it being removed with the advent of Prologue. Unfortunately, I can't check via the PS3 as I downloaded it at launch, and anything you download 'dissappears' from the store (although you can normally redownload stuff if need be).

That's a shame if it's no longer available because I wanted something to play until prologue came out I'm really waiting for GTA4 to come out next month but these would have kept me ticking along until then.

One option if you cant wait is to buy a jap prologue, there's a few on ebay. i bought one a few month ago, obviously its in japanese, but there is plenty of pages on line that translate everything you need to know
