The award-winning Gran Turismo franchise returns with its 5th installment, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, exclusively for PlayStation 3. With its signature realism and unrivaled physics, this highly anticipated precursor to Gran Turismo 5 continues to blur the line between simulation and reality.

Developed By the Best
Polyphony Digital is the developer of the Gran Turismo franchise, led by creator Kazunori Yamauchi. Polyphony Digital is known for pushing the limits of the PlayStation hardware, and with its realistic graphics and physics, Gran Turismo 5: Prologue is no different. In addition to receiving CAD data from the auto manufacturers, they have taken thousands of photos to model each car (and track). As an example of the level of detail, a car in Gran Turismo 4 has the same number of polygons as a headlight in Gran Turismo 5: Prologue.
Polyphony works even closer with the automotive industry to make sure that the cars look and drive just as they do in real life. In fact, Kazunori Yamauchi designed the on-board computer for the real Nissan GT-R. If youâ??re lucky to buy one when it releases, you will notice the Polyphony Digital logo when you start your car.

No doubt, if you’re a car fanatic like myself, a Gran Turismo fan to say the least, then you’ll love the experience this game offers. Throughout the years, i’ve played Gran Turismo from it’s diaper era. Now despite Pro Logue has many limitations in terms of the small array of cars and tracks, it’s a great learning experience and practise for when the full version is released sometime this year… I hope.
Just when you thought GT4 was a great update, which it is by the way, then GT5 is probably the closest thing to actual driving, cuz the driving physics is almost spot on, the cars are more sensitive to your output, and it’s damn good.
P.s. If you can master the Ferrari 599 on Professional driving physics, you’re a boss, trust me

I did not even buy this game for me. I purchased it for my grandkids. Had to play it to learn so I could show them how and I got hooked. The more you win, the more money you make and you can buy the most awesome cars. Takes a little while but worth it.

Okay so this game is touted as the real driving simulator,Yet when I play most of the driving and cars seem unreal in the movements they make you cant flip the car or do a doughnut but almost all the cars spin out I use a g27 and the only thing the game seems to focus on is throttle control. Ive argued with countless people claiming these physics were real but yet for the gt demo and the full gt5 these physics were scraped nothing to real here compared to a sim this is arcade hell it even looks like an arcade game plus its boring no wonder Ive never been a part of the gt bandwagon ill just play lfs where i can do doughnuts burnouts brakestands clutch failure etc….. Dont buy if your looking for realism maybe the full gt5 wont be like this no matter how preety or how many cars they have if the cars handle like this ill be pissed

First things first, I understand that this is simply a prologue and not a full game.
With that out of the way, I do not understand how they can consider charging anything close to half price for this game. This prologue looks very nice, but the track selection is VERY LIMITED, car selection is VERY LIMITED, and user features are VERY LIMITED. This is about 1/10 of a full racing game, but it comes at 1/2 price - Not worth it.
After playing Forza 3 and seeing what a full game should be (400+ cars, 100 tracks, full car customization) it makes me realize that this is not a prologue - this is simply a glorified demo that would be well worth $5 and not a penny more. It showcases an extremely limited car and track selection with no customization of cars.
The tracks and cars that are available in this “prologue” are very nice, and they do a good job setting us all up for the full version. Do yourself a favor and just wait for that full version to come out, because this is not worth paying for.
