GC: New GT 5 Prologue trailer

Nearly three minutes of GT 5 Prologue right here, right now
It takes a wee while to actually show any racing but a new trailer from GT Prologue provides a stunning three-minute look at the PS3 racer.

We get to view nice shiny motors and pit-stop crews in action before the rubber burning kicks off in earnest, but you still get just over a minute of cars tearing round the tarmac.

Earlier this week Sony released 25 screenshots from the game, and you can view those by clicking this link.

doesnt matter how good the graphics are. this is the most boring game ever to play. i got the GTHD demo for ps3 and it is god awful. cannot understand why people like this!!! the least fun game EVER! it looks, plays and sounds boring, what a load of s**te!!!! the most exciting part of this game was switching it off.

PGR4 will rip this apart - from all angles, especially in playability and i believe also graphics and effects. ram gran turismo up yer bottom pipe sony, im buying a new falcon especially for PGR4

Be fair Vercetti, the psn demo was just an HD version of GT4 with only time trials. How can you judge that against GT5? There will be c**kpit views, dynamic weather and 16 car races to look forward to in the final release - not to mention 12 player online races. PGR is also a great game and anyone who says otherwise is not a full shilling, but it is a different beast to GT5 and I will be buying both.
Mark240473 on 24 Aug '07
PGR4 is an arcade game, GT5 and GT5 Prologue is a simulation game, just like the past GT games, including GTHD.

cannot wait for this game, simply the best racer out. look at the dash views, they're taking the p**s.

Vercetti ,please ,shut up .
Diomedes1977 on 24 Aug '07
I always thought this game would look superb but I personally hate the handling of GT and I can’t see it being any different this time.

I’ll probably still end up buying it though. SmileRolling Eyes

Top of my number 1 hopes,is that they drop the "the real driving simulator " tag .

For something that has no clutch,indestructible cars,indestructible ,car stopping plastice tape type barriers,that tag has absolutely no place being there.

Otherwise ,finally,something to get peoples peckers up,and keep them there once the eye candy effect drops .

You're list counts for nothing, it is too big and red.

Likely method of play:

1. Ignore Arcade mode
2. Enter Career Mode
3. Buy shopping car (e.g. Micra, Yaris, Charade etc)
4. Enter race
5. Bash cars with no adverse affect to get to the front.
6. If you don't win, buy upgrades/new car and enter again.
7. Repeat ad-infinitum

It was like that for the first four and I don't see this one being any different. Stick in all the lovely textures and dash views you want, but it's a dull game no more deserving of the title "driving simulator" than the cardboard box with a paper plate that a child plays with.

You forgot the bloody licences bulls**t that feature f**kin p**ses me off Mad
kizzle on 24 Aug '07
Damn it! I knew there was something I was forgetting.

Still, you'd think that we've started a car from rest, driven it in a straight line and stopped it enough times by now, wouldn't you? Just let us race.

Give him some credit.

vercetti102 shut up for good because YOU are an xbox360 and pgr4 fanboy ok????
If you don't like GT5 then don't play it.
But don't tell us that pgr4 is a better game because you look like an idiot, i've played pgr3 on my xbox360 before i sell it and the game is a really crap arcade racer and nothing more.
THE FACT IS THAT GT5 WILL BE THE BEST VIDEO GAMES DRIVING SIMULATOR EVER BELIEVE IT OR NOT.
And because xbox360 does not have something that comes close to GT5 (this game is a console seller and GT1,2,3,4 SOLD LOADS OF MILLIONS) you don't have to said all these crap...so go back to your 360 and play your lovely arcade racers to death and let us play with our real games.

haven't you forgotten forza 2?

anyway gran turismo games are so dull they just drain the life out of you. no thrills racing, but the graphics do look fantastic.
shellster2 on 24 Aug '07
its only every blue-moon that i buy a racer, and usually i go for the more arcade-types (such as Burnout or Need for Speed). however, GT5 Prologue could very-well get me to invest an interest in simulation-racers. quite simply put, this game has the best graphics i have ever seen in a racer (or any game for that matter, if i am allowed to compare apples to oranges). i didn't think graphics could get any better than PGR4, but GT5 Prologue has soundly proven me wrong.
atrimus on 24 Aug '07
This is my first post so be gentle.

I think people who claim that this game is going to be bad should remember that this is not the full GT5
but as the name of the game states a prologue to GT5.

This means that a full damage model is not out of the question. For me the Gran Turismo games were always slightly arcade feeling, so I wonder if they go for a full simulation that they will lose a lot of fans, but maybe as gamers we now need that extra difficulty to appreciate this game fully.

On the graphics side I was blown away by the PSN video
but can also see that they will be improved for the full GT5 game.

I own PGR3 and would like to say that it was my first taste of X-box and it got me back into console gaming, but I cant help feeling that it wasn't right
and the fact that bikes are in PGR4 makes me think have I seen the best the series has to offer.

I have never played Forza but was put of by some independent reviews of the game so I wont comment on this, but in terms of Sim racing you should look at Sim bin games as they have set a new bench mark in simulation racing, if GT5 can convey the same feelings in Prologue and GT5 then the crown might go to them.
Oh and the Wii is king.
Gaz Vonhammer on 24 Aug '07
But theres gonna be bikes in GT5 aswell

Forza 2, this may look slightly better but i own a ps3 and wont be paying out Ł40 for this game.

Come on sony give us somthing Unique.

Dont feel bad about spending a fourtune on a ps3 for it to sit under the tv gathering dust,i dont.

Ive had all of the gt games! and i think their great!! although i mostly just go on timetrial and thrash my fav cars about!!. its one of the best driving games i have fun with and have played 4 hours on end without getting board!! i have 2 admit. why r there soo many crap cars in the game? and why has gt never had a lambo??. and the actual racing can get very boring!.but normally i just use a cheat disk. and pass all tests etc.. and get millions in the bank Very Happy. then i buy all my fav cars, tune them up. and have hours and hours of fun!!!!!. ive played pgr3 on a friends 360. and although i had fun playing it. i still prefer gt!!!.yes i feel that gt5 needs alot of change from the past games!! but even if it dont change then ill still get my hours and hours of fun. so im happy watever!! Very Happy .the car models r the best ive ever seen!! but i think the tracks sould b improved on!! frm wat ive seen!?.ill b getting gt5 as soon as its out!! coz IT IS the/one of, the best driving games ever!!!

I feel that the GT series has stagnated since it's inception and hasn't really given anything new to the genre thus far just relying on the name to sell it, GT5 does look visually impressive and i hope they do overhaul some aspects of the gameplay and i do hope it's not a case of modifying the car and being well ahead of the rest of the pack for the easy win.
steve0580 on 25 Aug '07
Vercetti ,please ,shut up .

u f**k up.

this game has the worst fanboys. good to see some honest opinions for once.

what a racing game should be all about - handling - is what brings this game down.

Hey Vercetti lets play a game. The game is called shut the f*ck up! You go first.
Johnny_5 on 25 Aug '07
gthd demo was crap.

But this game will be good i hope.

GT3 was maybe my all time favourite racing game, but i didnt think GT4 was quite as good.
ArchFlameTera on 27 Aug '07
