Gran Turismo 5

 

When realisim is wanted from a racing game, the best of the best is Gran Turismo.

The series made it's debut on the original PlayStation in 1997, and has since had a few sequels and spinoffs, and the series motto "The Real Driving Simulator" fit's the bill perfectly.

 

GAMEPLAY

Gran Turismo 5 keeps to the series standard, having a mode called Arcade, with time trials, and grand prix mode, for up to four players.  It also contains a updated version of the classic Gran Turismo Mode, in which the player con pass license test's, buy cars, complete races, and play online.  All 1,083 cars handle exactly like they do in real life, and in GT mode, you can upgrade the engines.  DLC is available for those who want more tracks, and cars.

GRAPHICS

Graphicly, this is one of the best games for PS3, with the same graphical detail, I mean this game is "The Real Driving Simulator".  The cars look amazing, and the enviroments are pretty.  This game is like the difference beetween most games on PS2, and GT 4.

 

AGE

All ages can play this game, but you do need a understanding of how to brake on the curves.  You also need to make sure that smaller children don't click on the buy DLC buttons, because then you'll spend real money from your PSN wallet.

 

CONCLUSION

If your looking for a realistic racing game on PS3, this is the way to go.  With some of the best visuals I've seen, I give this 9 out of 10.
