Gran Tourismo 5 is the best Race Sim?

Lets face it GT has always been at the front of Race Sim games now for years. For me GT3 set the standard for race sims, GT4 continued the standard and now GT5 has arrived. Its simply is the best race sim out there and, for me, so much better than Forza 3. Graphically stunning, Car models are accurate and detailed, tracks are spot on, lighting and weather effects are stunning to look at whilst driving in the various, gorgeous locations.
The new modes such as NASCAR, KART RACING, TOP GEAR CHALLANGES, AND THE WRC MODES are welcome editions to the series. The sheer amount of cars totaling 1000 cars including 200 premium models is much needed to mix it up a bit. The usual Licence modes are back as always making you work hard to gain entry into the better races and the leveling up system showing your competitors how good you really are!
Unfortunatly i have not had time to play the multiplayer so i cannot say if this is a good or bad thing. The game itself is awsome so buy it!

    I've been a fan of this series since the original Playstation edition, but I don't think expectations for this series have ever been so high as this. I was fortunate enough to get my copy a bit early and thought I'd s... Read Full Review
