One of the best racing games available and a lot of fun
One of the best games ive played
Except the online features being disabled I found the game to be quite good in terms of graphics and whatnot I always enjoyed Gran Turismo since day one because it felt somewhat real when driving but now many years later it feels even more realistic.
It goes without saying that the new game looks astonishing – far better even than Gran Turismo 5 Prologue – but as ever the beauty of Gran Turismo is that it drives as realistically as it looks. With the 950 different cars modelled to a higher degree of accuracy than ever before this also features more manufacturers than any other game – including, for the first time ever, Lamborghini and Bugatti.
Other fan demands that have finally been met too, including fully realistic
damage-modelling, a 16-player online mode, dynamic weather changes and night
racing. Any more realistic than this and you'd be knocked out by the petrol
fumes.

Course Maker
Make an Original Surprise Course and Invite Your Friends.
In Gran Turismo 5, you can finally generate your own original tracks. This is
the “Course Maker” feature.
In the “Course Maker”, you will select the base theme (terrain), and select
a variety of parameters such as the length of the course, to easily create a
track which matches your parameters. If you come up with a good track, you can
also give these original tracks to your friends online, and use them in the
races with your friends in My Lounge.
Now with a massive number of course layouts available, the never ending world of
“Gran Turismo” awaits your presence.
Racing Karts
Make New Discoveries on the Tracks through Kart Racing
Racing Karts are now appearing for the first time in the Gran Turismo series.
Karts are a popular way to get into motorsports in real life, and even a
beginner player of Gran Turismo will be able to enjoy racing in one.
The dynamic characteristics of racing karts have been thoroughly recreated
through the experience and technology amassed at Gran Turismo. The size, ride
height and dynamics of a Kart are totally different from that of a normal car.
Witness the moment when the familiar world of Gran Turismo transforms into a
whole new world
The Most Exciting American Motorsport: NASCAR
For the first time in the series, Gran Turismo 5 will contain NASCAR.
You can drive the modified Stock Cars, while star NASCAR drivers like Jeff
Gordon, Tony Stuart, and Dale Earnhardt Jr. appear with their real life
names.
Another scene of interest in NASCAR is the incredible pitwork. The lifting of
the car, the lightning fast tyre changes and refuelling performed by the elite
pit staff, have all been recreated in detail.
Excitement and Sensations Only Possible in stereophonic 3D
A Richer World of Gran Turismo Awaits Through Two Very New
Features
One of the new features added for the very first time in Gran Turismo 5, is
support for 3D and face tracking
Using 3D compatible televisions such as the Sony 3D BRAVIA series with 3D
glasses, you can experience an ultra-realistic sensation like never seen
before.
The other major feature is a unique face tracking function using the USB camera,
PlayStation®Eye camera for PlayStation®3. By using facial recognition with the
PlayStation®Eye, you can move your face to the left and right to move your
field of vision while you are driving in a race.
3D and face tracking are both innovative features by themselves, and combined
together, an even richer, high quality world of Gran Turismo 5 is made
possible.By moving your face parallel in front of the screen, you can change
your field of view. This makes possible a sensation as though you are actually
inside your chosen car.
