Gran Turismo 5, don't hate what you don't understand

After reading some of the reviews posted, I feel like I need to point out a few things. First off, Gran Turismo is a driving simulation. It is as close as one can get to driving an actual car in real life. The physics engine is excellent in Gran Turismo 5. The tracks are simulated versions of the real courses, complete with all of the imperfections in the surfaces of the real tracks. Gravity behaves very closely in the game as it does in real life, as well as wind resistance, forces as a result of impacts, and lighting and shadows.

For those that say that the cars do not handle like they do in real life, and that the game is not good as a result, do not know what they are talking about. Using the controller to steer a car in a video game disconnects the player from the simulation experience and should not be used for comparison. Play with a driving wheel such as the Logitech G27 and you will understand the point of this game. By using your imagination you can 'feel' the difference between the cars' handling whether you are using the controller or the wheel.

As far as teaching you how to race? The license tests do just that. They show you how accurately you must steer and how perfectly you must modulate the gas and brake to achieve the best lap times. If you do not understand the handling of cars and are not good at the game at first, keep playing and you will learn. You might have to do the same license test 300 times before you get gold. This is not an easy game to become good at and if someone is expecting it to be similar to Need for Speed they may be disappointed. Games like Need for Speed are fun as well, but they provide an arcade driving experience where breaking isn't always necessary and the focus is less on driving technique and more on visual excitement.

Where Gran Turismo falls short is in comparison of one game in particular: Forza 3. Gran Turismo 5's shortcomings include:

- the sensation of high speed when the car is traveling at high speed. Forza 3 does a much better job making the driver feel like they are going 200mph

- selection of cars and tuning options... there are some key core driver's cars unavailable such as the BMW E30 or E36 M3, the E39 M5, the VW GTI MKII, the Ferrari F50, the FXX... hopefully these cars will be created in the years to come along with the countless others that deserve to be in the game. Forza has a much better list of cars and also provides the ability to to engine swaps and offers more flexibility in tuning.

- Variety and extent of races... I'm not sure why there are so few races in the game, and why they have decided not to limit cars based on class. It's no fun if you can enter a race with a car that is lightly tuned and smoke the competition. Make the individual races more challenging and limit the power cars can have.

- Give better gift cars. This game is truly designed with fans of Japanese cars in mind, which is to be expected, but there are just way too many award or gift cars that I do not care about. An Opera Honda S2000 for beating the S-License with Bronze does not make me happy.

In conclusion, Gran Turismo is meant to be tough master, and because of this it is one of the most satisfying games to play when you finally drive a perfect lap or achieve gold in a license test. Though it does have some flaws, and may lose out to Forza 3 in some aspects, it is the closest one can get to a real driving experience. Enjoy it for what it is.Lire l'avis complet...

The bottom line is I am overall disappointed in offering from PD&Sony.

I bought GT5 with great expectations and was very disappointed. I have to admit that Polyphony Digital did a great job with the graphics in GT5. Overall though they did not listen to their customers again as with GT4.
Pros are great graphics, better realism in car control but it stops there.
Cons: Can't customize standard cars, can't re-run races to get prize cars again, very limited dealership options for premium cars, prize cars are usually standard cars insted of premium cars. Ridiculous prices on the fast cars you need to win races. Many of the cars you want are in the used car lot and they are all standard cars. The game starts with a very low amount of money to get a decent car to start to race. The list goes on and on.
I still enjoy the game and at this point I am racing the same tracks over and over just for the money. I would say don't waste your money on a new one when you can find good used copies on Ebay for much less that the retail price. Hopefully PD & Sony will come up with more download content which would help.Lire l'avis complet...

If you've played GT its great!!!

I came from the GT 1 school so to see the evolution of the game and graphics is incredible. There are some throwbacks and new pieces when it comes to tracks (including NASCAR woohoo!!! left turn city!). The overall driving experience is well done as far racing games go. The music is same cheese that we have come to expect. The graphics are stunning and impressive to non gamers (my wife was amazed by the reflection of the cloud in the rear window). The one thing that this game has over its xbox 360 counterpart is the garage! Excellent selection of awesome cars.

Now for the reason it is not a 5 star game.... can be summed up in one word loading.... starts with an almost 700 mb update (about 12 minutes on a hardline to 2 hours on a wifi) then there is 8 gb data install to "help" the extraneous load time. It is reminiscent of playing on the PS1 (I mean come on it's a freakin PS3).

So overall i give it a solid 7 and all I have to say to the haters out there, "What do you expect more from a racing game; how long do you think it took to get all of the licensingLire l'avis complet...

Great Game... but can use improvement

this game is pretty good but can use improvment
PROS
1.GRAPHICS:The graphics are AMAZING
2.ONLINE:The online gameplay is fantastic!
3.CARS:Comes with over 1,000 cars!
4.EVENTS:There a alot of events to keep you occupied with this game
MUSIC: if you dont like the 100s of songs in the soundtrack you can upload your own
CONS
1. WAITING:When you first put in the game you have to update it and this process took me 2 HOURS! than when you are done the game is gonna tell you too download something to reduce loading times this takes another HALF HOUR!

2.LOADING:If you dont do the download to reduce loading times you have to wait about 6-7 minutes to play any event.

3.SAVEDATA:This game takes SO MUCH memory.i dont know how much exactly because i havent downloaded all the update
WARNING
This game is NOT a fast paced racing game like burnout or need for speed it is REALISTIC which means the cars dont look like they are going 400 mph,they dont DRIFT when you hit the brakes,you cant CRASH into anyone and make them crash,and you cant turn corners easily you have to brake then do the corner
OVERALL
great game worth the money but not for you if you like burnout and games like thatLire l'avis complet...

Great service

There's a quote, attributed to Shigeru Miyamoto, that could well serve as the mantra for racing enthusiasts waiting to play Gran Turismo 5: "A delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever." Much like Miyamoto and other notable perfectionist auteurs of the video game world, Kazunori Yamauchi and his team at Polyphony Digital have kept us at bay for nearly six years -- all the while chumming the water with teases, trailers, demos and Prologues -- as they worked to ensure that the next installment of their "Real Driving Simulator" achieved their exacting levels of refinement. Now that the game is here, the wait is finally over. Sort of.

In many ways, GT5 is all about waiting. In fact, one of the first decisions you'll face upon starting the game is whether you'd prefer to delay satisfaction for a full install of the game's data (a 45-minute, 8GB affair) or get straight to the track and endure some significantly longer load times. As frequently as the game changes menus and venues, I'd definitely recommend the full install.Lire l'avis complet...

Great racing, fun to be had eventually, but tons flaws for 7 year wait

I have to admit I was very excited about this game when I ordered it from ebay. I had been playing Forza 3 non-stop for the few weeks before ordering this title. I own GT 2+3 and they were the best racing games by far IMO and Gran Turismo 5 looked promising to be even better.

But I was disappointed..

When I popped the game in and raced the first race I was a little skeptic about the handling of the cars. When jumping directly from forza back to Gran Turismo it takes some adjusting. I also immediately noticed that there is no Manual Transmission option with a clutch for the regular Ps3 controller. That was one of my favorite features about forza.

The physics engine for the handling is, however, top-notch. It is very realistic. The only problem I had with this "simulation" handling is that it replicates the way a real car should handle SO well that it becomes almost impossible to drive correctly with the little 2cm diameter joystick of the Ps3 controller. A racing wheel is almost needed to play properly. Hardcore GT fans already know this

The game is also a bit slower to get into than older titles, and seems to be a very boring grind until around level 20. The special races are somewhat interesting, especially the kart racing. The Nascar is a nice addition, but seems to be more of an afterthought. Also the special events are the only way to get quick cash to advance quickly in A-Spec racing by taking your mind off the boring grind of racing like you were meant to do. The upside is that high-end racing in the higher levels is quite a blast.

Now on to the annoying flaws. While they may not completely kill the game, they should not exist on a game that has been in development for damn near seven years.

The graphics are to die for, scenery and cars especially. However, this beautiful eye-candy is tainted by the presence of horrid, jagged shadows everywhere. It really takes away from the game and makes the focus on drooling graphics a waste of time.

Also graphics-wise is the blurry/pixilated edges of the car when surrounded by tire smoke, dirt clouds, rain mist, etc. I believe i read somewhere that this is a result of no anti-aliasing around the cars. Once again, seven years and this couldn't be taken care of?

Possibly the biggest let down is the lack of damage.It is a racing "Simulator"! Something about running head-on into a concrete wall at 265mph, doing a U-turn,then going on to win the race doesn't seem to "real" to me. No matter what you do the cars will handle + perform no different.

On to the UI side of things. The main menu is scattered about in typical GT fashion which is barely user friendly. Some menus are hidden and can take some guess-work to find what is needed.

For lack of space im going to quickly list off a few more flaws that come to mind.

Arcade mode only has a limited number of cars you can use if you do not own them.

The new "B-spec" is cool to try but holds your attention for literally 5 races.

In rally racing, traction control is set to level 5 by default making it impossible to power around turns and make the time limit without going into the driving menu and disabling it

Loading times are horrid, even with the content pre-installed.

Car customization is very limited, classic GT, but is becoming a bit dated IMO

Not many racing events compared to past GTs

While I listed a ton a faults there is still much fun to be had and a lot of pros but no room to list. Still a great game.Lire l'avis complet...

Slightly disappointed being a GT fan.

I have been a hardcore GT fan and always play racing simulation games on a proper seat+feedback wheel setting. After playing GRID and DIRT 2 on PS3 I was expecting super-WOW graphics and fun in GT5. But for the first 2 days I was hit with crappy cars with low resolution rendering and sub-par tracks. The exact same tracks look much nicer in GRID. I played them back to back to compare.

The load times were excruciating. I'd say expect to spend about 40mins/hr. in the Menu's and the rest on racing. I am still not happy with the graphics (with 1080p on 60" plasma TV). The shadows flicker during races and replays.

I got little better load times after installing the 6GB game on the HDD. And of course don't forget the 608MB 1.05 update that takes hours to install and cannot be done in the background. You cant even download it on a computer and upload through USB.

The positive points are of course, endless list of cars and customization and different kinds of activities like license tests, B-spec events, online dealership and of course online races. Then there is GT TV, photo mode etc.

The force feedback is great but that was great even in GT3. The tuning options are nice but they are priced the same for all makes/models of cars.

Overall, well, its a must-have for racing fans anyway.Lire l'avis complet...

All horespower you could want in a racer as GT5 still delivers!!

Tons of detail on the premium cards. Gran Turismo is still a great simulation racer, the cars feel and drive like previous installments. I was dissapointed in the cockpit view of non-premium cars, they were just a black generic shadow. The B-spec was a neat addition but winning certain races required spending hours online finding the exact car and setup to win a race and getting a little lucky. Some of the racetracks look great and many look very bland in detail, I would prefer more quality than quantity on the details of the different tracks. Overall after revisiting the game today it still holds up in 2013 as a fun car racing simulator. The only other real gripe is I do have trouble getting into a private race/server with friends.Lire l'avis complet...

Excellent Classic Racing Game

I've forgotten just how great this game is. I used to own it many, many years ago, but after reluctantly selling off my PS3 and the games, I missed how great this was. Now that I have gotten into nostalgia mode, reclaiming this game was a great move, and at a very fair price. Both the disc, manual and case were in excellent condition, and the disc plays without issue. If you like racing, GT5 is the way to go.Lire l'avis complet...

Gt5 Ps3 Awesome

I've alway been a great fan of the Sony GT5. This game never gets old and is still my favourite. I play it with driving force GT at manual mode and what can I say, hours and hours of fun. Game is very easy to play, although, the higher you progress, more difficult the challenges get. I give this game 5 out of 5 stars considering GT6 is already out now. Highly recommend for the racing game fanatics.Lire l'avis complet...
