Hey! Gran Turismo 5 is getting more tracks, more cars and some rather snazzy weather effects. We’re glad that the racer’s realism has been ratcheted up even further but ultimately, after the long wait, we’re just hoping Gran Turismo 5 actually does arrive on the November 3 release date we’re promised. Speed through to the other side for all the details on the new Gran Turismo 5 features…
Over at the Tokyo Games Show, Polyphony Digital has unveiled new tweaks to Gran Turismo 5 – the third time in the last three years that they’ve rocked up to the Asian gaming fest. New courses unveiled at the event include the Lagna Seca Mazda Raceway and a remake of the classic Gran Turismo track Trial Mountain.
New cars making the Gran Turismo 5 garage include the ultra-rare Isuzu 4200R, the Citroen GT, the VW Kubelwagen and curiously, the VW Schwimmawagen, an amphibious WW2-vintage off-roader.
The update in-game weather in Gran Turismo 5 sounds pretty intriguing. It’ll dynamically alter elements like temperature, pressure and humidity in real time to mimic real weather conditions. That’ll have an effect on the road surface and make the game that bit trickier.
After such a long wait, are you still excited to get your hands on Gran Turismo 5? Hit the comments and let us know what cars and courses you want to get at. Do you think it’ll end up in our best PS3 games list?
