A flawless glimpse of things to come.

I have been a Gran Turismo fan since 1998. So when I first got my PS3, I was baffled at how there wasn't a single GT game released closer to the system's launch. Though we did have "Gran Turismo HD Concept," that game just, wasn't enough. (Because with only 10 cars, and 1 track, it got old pretty fast)
While we have yet to see the release of the FULL version of GT5, Polyhony has given us a remarkable taste of things to come with "Gran turismo 5 Proluge." But, while this is just a TASTE, it is a very BIG taste..
For starters, compared to just 10 cars like we had in GTHD, GT5 Proluge now has over 60 cars! (that's more than the latest Need for Speed title!) Also, while GTHD had of course, only 1 track, GT5 proluge has 6 tracks! (9 if you count the alternate routes of Daytona, Fuji, and Suzuka!)
As expected, the graphics in this game are fantastic! You can see every little detail on the cars and scenery complete with the drivers and a new Dash-Board view. But trust me, if you REALLY want to see just how detailed these graphics are, you HAVE to play it on an HD display. (an SD display just won't do it justice)
The soundtrack is very well done. With genres ranging from pounding rock tunes during races, and smooth jazz on the menu screens.
While this may be just a DEMO of what GT5 will be, it has just enough content, that it feels like a FULL GAME that will keep you entertained for hours!
If you are a GT fanatic, or if you just like racing games, I highly recoomend this title
