Sony has set the pace once more, and if Prologue is anything to go by, the full version due out next year will be mind-blowing. Roll on 2009!...
Great graphics and physics engine. Retains the traditional Gran Turismo “feel”. New features like drifting are loads of fun. Full support for most steering wheels including H shifter and clutch.
Total lack of antialiasing detracts from the otherwise stunning 1080p graphics. Some odd bugs and flaws here and there, but these should be ironed out when the full game is released.

It’s difficult to know whether or not Polyphony Digital has been hung by a misjudged consumer love for its longrunning series of racers. Or if, on the other hand, whether giving us what’s essentially an extended demo, is little more than a revenuegener...

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue might only be a demo, but it’s worth 40 bucks alone to justify the $2000 you splurged on a PS3 and a 1080p HDTV. Prologue - the preview version of 2009’s full-on GT5 - looks even better than the screenshots you can see here. It’...

Gran Turismo 5 has been in the womb so long we were surprised to discover it didn't launch with a fully developed set of teeth. Can this long overdue game live up to the considerable expectations of an attentive racing fraternity?...
The new tracks and cars are incredibly detailed. The traditional GT racing experience is better than ever, with amazing attention to physics and handling. The challenges are diverse, and accumulating vehicles is just as addictive as it always was. PSP integration is a nice touch, too.
Little development shown on cars and tracks lifted from previous games. No Top Gear cars. Online multiplayer needs attention. Track creation tool is too basic. Soundtrack is uninspiring. Load times are grating. Non-intuitive interface.
