News Confirmed: Gran Turismo 5 Is Still An Extremely Good Looking Game
Hey, Gran Turismo 5 may not be hitting shelves this year like we anticipated but, what the hell
The game still looks pretty. It's just you have to ogle screenshots. Instead of having it on your TV. In 1080p. And 60FPS. GAH! Who are we kidding, the wait is killing us. We're not sure whether this screenshot gallery appeases our GT needs, or totally...

News Polyphony Under Pressure From Sony To Release Gran Turismo 5
We should think so too
It's been five years Yamauchi! That's a crazy long time in the entertainment business.

News Let's Watch Gran Turismo 5's Indestructible Ferrari 458
This is a video of a recent Gran Turismo 5 demo
As you can see it includes damage. We sure as heck wished we owned the model of the Ferrari Polyphony were modelling mind; apparently 150MPH smashes only cause scratches! Hopefully we can just polish them out. Memo to Polyphony: finish your game, get the damage system right or leave it out, make sure...
