i agree..
the best one was the first one.. was neat for 1998 on console.
just proves that console hasn’t evolve in the sim area,that’s sad because i’m sure some people would love the physics of a real sim on consoles.
when i bought gt4 and forza i played a few hours and returned to my LFS.
Imagine live for speed or GTR2 on a console.. or imagine paying for all the rfactor mods on xbox live

i just gave a very bad idea to microsoft

Why does anyone who isn’t a graphics whore even care about Gran Turismo, especially since it’s not even a sim?

They’re clearly not worried about any other PS3 racers coming along anytime before Christmas 2009 then.
If the PS3 was flush with fun racing games (like the PS1 was) I expect GT5 would’ve been ready at [or shortly after] the PS3′s launch.

Though I am wary. I remember a few years ago it was said that you’d buy the game, but only have a handful of cars, and have to BUY the rest over PSN. Or pay for a PREMIUM version and have most of the cars.

Any sale depends on whether they’re just selling you the core game and no cars.

So that means I’ve got a year to save for a PS3 and convince the wife I need one. Ace.

(And I’d need a new TV too.)
