Well its taken 2000 and something days well lets just call it 5 years and not be picky to get to our PS3's but it has finally arrived...
Last night i was lucky enough to grab a copy of GT5 (my wife rocks) and get stuck into it...
After a long hour of Loading the 8 gig of data onto the PS3 GT5 was ready to rock!!! (it saw the deletion of various demo games housed on my hdd but nothing was getting in the way of installing GT5)
The intro to this game is just fornominal... I'm sure by now it will be smashed all over youtube but the creators have gone to the extremes from the word get go!!!
My first view of the home screen was impressive it had a neat yet complicated layout which you just knew this was going to be extreme. With so many options on one dashboard there is no way its going to be all over in a week....
The first and most basic licence seemed to be the obvious starter, get a feel for the cars the game and the track.. I have been playing GT5 Prologe for quite a while now and GT5 just blows it away. The detail on the dash within the cars and the track themselves are just something else. Moving along we get to some S turns to pass another licence test. With GT5Prologue breaking mid corner was never a sin... It would possibly put you into some form of understeer but nothing like GT5... I think real life disaster would be the best way to describe what happened to my car as it pinned me off tail first into a wall... (please no reminders)
I'm currently sitting on Level 7 with what looks to have an exciting 24 levels of Licence.
Having a quick look over the car list its impressive. There is a live used car section with everything from the cheap to the classics.. The used car section offers cars with low km and also those with high km. The maintenance division provides oil changes to engine rebuilds... All that you would expect from racing a car..
I give GT5 the thumbs up!!!!
