Gran Turismo 5

Developed exclusively for PS3 by Polyphony Digital, Gran Turismo 5 brings the world's most realistic and comprehensive driving experience to fans in one of the most highly anticipated games of all time. Gran Turismo 5 features more than 1000 licensed cars from the world’s top manufacturers and more than 20 tracks with more than 70 variations, including famous world circuits, city courses, and other environments.

Featuring exciting gameplay and modes to suit newcomers, automotive enthusiasts, and seasoned fans, Gran Turismo 5 raises the bar on the franchise's depth of content and unparalleled visuals difficult to distinguish from a live race. Further reflecting this realism, cars will feature real-time visual damage with adaptive and accurate car deformation based on point of impact and velocity. Additionally for the first time, Gran Turismo 5 will feature an extremely deep online and community feature set. Players can progress and acquire credits through a variety of modes like GT Career Mode, Championship Races, License Tests and more, or they can explore different tracks and circuit variations in Arcade Mode. Additionally, players can race online with up to 16 players through PlayStation Network.

Ratings for Gran Turismo 5

Rating Description
7
Presentation A cumbersome front-end and minimal, overlong loading screens hinder it, as do a series of other strange design choices.
9
Graphics It's moments of sheer beauty ultimately outweigh the uglier ones, though sadly they don't quite outnumber them.
8
Sound The visuals aren't met by the audio, and the engine notes lack grunt. The less said about the soundtrack the better.
9
Gameplay For all its missteps in the single player mode it's still an unrivalled driving experience - and that's where it really counts.
9
Lasting Appeal There's certainly not a paucity of content, and if any future patches can help streamline the online it could have serious legs.
8.5
