Polyphony have wrung more out of the PSP than anyone else has, with the possible exception of Ready at Dawn, and managed to represent that clean, sharp Gran Turismo aesthetic almost perfectly. The sound’s exactly what you’d expect, too – multi-note engines, skidding on every corner and music seemingly pulled from Vidzone’s current top twenty with the likes of The Prodigy headlining the licensing.

I think that's a brilliant idea! It'll make you want to check your PSP every day and if there's not what you're looking for then just play a few races to earn some cash. I know alot of people seem to be down on there not being a classic career mode but collecting ~800 cars that will be unlocked in GT5 has to be an incentive.
