Sure, the game looks incredible, almost photorealistic.....but, it is a completely monotonous racing game. Why is there no damage? Forza 2 did it....

It's the most popular racing game of all times sold tens of millions of copies.

Though for experienced hardcore racing fan is pretty boring.

It has a insane brand loyalty. Forza 2 wasn't as widely known, even though it arguably has as much simulation as GT5. Europeans simply don't want to buy competition, they just like GT5, refusing to see what else is out there.

They should honestly get away from their sony shrine and give forza a chance.

GT5 is one of the few PS3 games I find worth buying. GT4 was amazing and I'm sure GT5 will be just as great.

What else is there to look forward to for racing fans? It wouldn't be such a big deal as a 360 exclusive thats for sure.

Forza did it half-assed. Not even half-assed, quarter-assed.

Quarter-assed? The ass was only visible through an electron microscope. The damage wasn't that realistic, really...

GT games have always been awesome they always set the bench mark for racing games for each generation of console.

if you dont like GT games fair enough but there are millions of GT fans out there who have been waiting for this game along time.

yea the AI is not the best but who says it wont be improved for the full version of GT5, prolouge is a taster of what is to come.

and then there is the 16 person multiplayer which all GT fans have always wanted.

It's because cows are desperately clamoring for a racing game as good as Halo:CE is.

What are you talking about! ? ! Halo invented racing. Don't you remember the race mode. Gran Turismo is a cheap knock off of Halo.

Seeing as you have a "Halo for President" sig I think I will withdraw from this debate and leave you in your peaceful little world.

Its a racing game, racing games are boring. I've never bought a racing game. It doens't even look that great, people just post the same screenshots that look good. When acual gameplay screenshots come out you will be amazed at how unbelievably unphotorealistic it looks. Its pretty embarassing acually. Poor ps3 owners. Maybe they will get a good game eventually? (not likely)

why was halo3 a big deal?

because it had Warthod/vehicles damage.

why is GTA4 a big deal?

because the vehicles got improved car damage.

why is mgs4 a big deal?

because it has metal gear damage.
