I finally got around to buying GT5. What a disappointment... Jaggy shadows, "floating" cars, incredibly slow loading times (installed to HDD), boring regurgitated tracks, very ordinary audio, etc. etc... Did Polyphony rush this out? Did they spend so much time and money developing it, that they eventually just decided to release it "as is"? Gran Turismo is the reason that I bought a PS2. And a PS3. GT3 and GT4 were (and still are) 2 of my all time favourite games. What have they done to my favourite game franchise? BOO HISS.
gt3 is one of the best driving games i have ever played, but lately, forza is where its at. especially the online community and regular releases.
i like playing GT on PS2, its sounds old engine PS2 but i still like it... because i dont have PS3 ... lol
